MARCH MADNESS !! Padre Basketball Tournament Update
After a thrilling victory last Saturday, the 8th grade boys continue their Padre run this Sunday, 3/14 at 4:30 p.m.  Bus for 5th thru 8th grade fans leaves the St. Robert parking lot at 3:30.  Face painting and such will take place anytime after 3:00 p.m. in the gym.  Return your permission slip to the school office as soon as possible so we know how many buses to order. 

The 8th grade girls battled valiantly in their Padre game but -- despite their outstanding defensive effort -- the Bobcat shots refused to fall and the girls lost to a very talented St. Ed's team from Racine.   110 action photos of the Bobcats in action can be found on the Padre website (www.thepadreserra.org) under the March 4 action listing.   The Bobcats want to thank their many fans for attending and cheering at their Padre game and throughout the season.  Congratulations on a fine year and outstanding 4 years of basketball to Coach Jim McKeown and the 8th grade girls: Emma "The Rebounder" Atwell, Caitlin "Early Bird" Baltus, Zoe "Buzzer Beater" Deprez, Brigid "The Linebacker" Gallagher, Anna "Speedster" Lucius, Allison "The Flying Post" Mitchell, Julia "The Virtuoso" Pantak,  Abby "Energizer" Pech, and "Smiling" Madeline Wittkowske.

Thank you! 
Thank you to all coaches, athletes and families who joined us for mass and the Blessing of Athletes last weekend.  It was very special.

-The 7th grade girls finished their season with two victories last weekend, beating St. Mary MF 37-12 and WCSS 32-16, keeping them on top of the very strong NDDB “A” division.  Their league record was 10-1 and they finished first in two of the tournaments they played this year.  Congratulations on a very successful season to Amber Allen, Mary Francis Cook, Ashley Eimers, Grace Hayes, Jayla Koonce, Sarah Mackowski, Abby Mansker, Mary Mansker, Aisling Moloney, Madeleine Nation, Delaney O’Neill and Ellie Schueller.
- The boys 7th grade 'A' team finished the season strong.  The team played strong all 4 quarters and easily beat a St. Eugene team that had beaten them twice earlier in the season.  Everyone played with great effort.  It was an excellent  finish to the season, way to go Coach Dennis Reilly, Kevin Brauer, Aidan Flanagan, Joe Franke, Leonardo Konewko, Steve Linn, Charlie Monnat, Sammy Monnat, Riley Sellinger, John Turner and Michael Turner.
- The 5th grade boys White and Blue teams had solid finishes to their seasons.  The White team lost two tough games to start the Holy Family tournament, but finished with a solid win to end the season.  The Blue team won its first two games and made it to the final four of the tournament.  The final two games were both very competitive, but the Blue team lost both games and finished in 4th.  Coach Reitman and Coach Ryland were very pleased with the progress of the boys and enjoyed a great season.  Congratulations to both teams: White - Isaac Conlon, Ryan Goetter, Max Janairo, Kevin Linn, Mateo Lipscomb, Emmett Ognar and Oguis Rodriguez; and Blue - Hunter Atwell, Jackie Collopy, Tommy Curtis, Jack Kessenich, Freddy Poorman and Henry Smith.
