If you're a Racine Case fan, mark Friday. The Eagles play West De Pere in the state semifinal at 7 p.m. at Bank of Sun Prairie Stadium, one win from a state championship game.

They got here on a walk-off 28-yard field goal by senior kicker Colin Gardner. Racine County Eye reported the kick came with four seconds left in a 3-3 sectional final against No. 1 seed Muskego. Case won 6-3 on Fri., Nov. 6.

  • Kick: 28 yards, with four seconds left
  • Muskego crowd: over 3,000 sets of eyes
  • Before 2023: Case had never won a playoff game
  • Graham's first season: 4-5, after a 0-7 year

The defense did the heavy lifting. Muskego had averaged over 250 rushing yards a game heading in. "We are simply dogs," senior defensive tackle London Hadley told TMJ4.

I hope I don't curse myself and get sick, but I've been curious about something for awhile now.

“I used to get 1 or 2 colds a year, with 1 being severe and that 5 week nasal drip. And I'd get the flu once every other year or so and usually not too severe. Then 4 things changed.
