A Perfect Record in the Northeastern Conference
This season, Kaukauna has proven to be unbeatable in the North Eastern Conference, standing proudly as the lone *undefeated team*. Adding to their momentum, they pulled off an exhilarating doubleheader sweep against Oconto Falls just this past week. Just think: their confidence must be soaring as they prepare to face Luxemburg-Casco on May 6.
The Papermakers Are Rising Up
But it’s not just Kaukauna stealing the spotlight! The Papermakers have been making waves in the rankings as well. They’ve scored over 10 runs in five of their last six games, which is quite an impressive feat. This recent performance has allowed them to climb higher in the rankings, putting them in a solid position as the season progresses.
On the other side of the rankings, the Lions faced a bit of a setback after their first loss of the season. Following a 6-1 defeat against New Holstein, they dropped two spots in the rankings.

Kimberly is currently tied with Oshkosh West for the top spot, and both teams will be vying hard for bragging rights.
Speaking of Kimberly, they had their *eight-game win streak* snapped recently with a tough 11-2 loss to Kiel, but they are itching to bounce back with a home game against Roncalli coming up on May 6.
