I am Filney with a look at WRCO sports tomorrow. Richland center will open up its softball season with a home game against

Wasika Stuban. It appears everything is a go unless it does rain a little bit in the meantime, but the diamond should be ready to go as the

Hornets begin. There are inaugural game for the upcoming

2026 season. Richland center baseball team continues its workouts this year. As far as the game is concerned, the first one will be in Kentucky next week.

Here is Richland center baseball coach Ryan Lemke. We have a couple four year vrc guys on in the program now, but by Brady Dosh,

Abraham Boswell has been around for three years in the varsity level. Braden Argo is a catcher. He's going to step up and starting

Catcher role every day. He always only are starting catcher last year when McDonald was pitching. But yeah, a lot of good core leadership guys coming back and

A lot of returning sophomores and juniors to the varsity lineup. So that's going to be huge for them that they were able to take their

Lumps as freshmen and sophomores and now they're going to be able to hopefully roll on the varsity level this year. So super excited for this group of kids.

How do you maintain pitching when you go to your trip next week? Do you have a pitch counter? What's the goal there?

Yeah, we do have a pitch counter. We have a WIA pitch counter, but it's all about building them up. So this week is all about scheduling bullpens on the

Right Day. For example, our day one started next Tuesday. We'll throw a bullpen tomorrow week until that six days off and kind of

Gear up as we kind of build up pitch counts during those bullpens and we'll keep that recipe going for the rest of the week.

But also when we're down there to not overdo it with guys, right? Those games are great. It's awesome to get wins and when you go on these

Trips, but ultimately it's what matters when you come back to Wisconsin and our arms are in good shape and we're healthy and we're ready to

Continue to pound the strike zone and that's that's what we need to do. You know, we have those games next week in Kentucky and then the

Monday after spring break. We play Boston up at their place and then that Friday Valley comes to town. So it's go time

Almost immediately and all about the conduct. It's all about getting ready for that next Friday game and conference play opens up.

Richland center baseball coach Ryan Lemke. There's a big contention heading toward the youth state wrestling turn with this weekend.

Dan McEvick represents Richland center youth wrestling.

We have Austin Ewing, Aiden Ewing, Miles Ewing, Colin Cater-Avick, Landon Kaiske, Emrick Coleman,

Cashton Larson, Killian McEvick, Rayla Ronfeldt, Easton Rulan, Ryke and Salazar, Sebastian Schmidt and they all

Place 1st, 2nd or 3rd and another one from the Richland center, the other thing about the Richland center wrestling club is we had four

alternates this year. So they place 4th place, Leanchman, Evan Haiti and Leanne Crook and Braden Aid also placed 4th at the

tournament. Well, you'll be well represented this weekend with the Alliance, won't you?

We're going to be busy and that's one of the good things is we we have plenty of coaches and it's it's fun because if you're

Sitting there for one or two kids it becomes a long day, but it's really fun underneath the tunnel. There are all these kids

Running around and then they see their buddy or their teammate get called and they go sprinting upstairs

And they get to the section even if it's across the arena just to go down in the picture area

So they're in the front two rows cheer in their teammates on for these kids. It's a big weekend, isn't it?

Yeah, the smiles on their faces even after a loss. I know a couple kids last year. They're not used to the atmosphere of it

Being if you lose two, you're done. They're used to round robins where okay, I lost two matches

They still might have a third or a fourth because of pairings, but here it's different

They're going to have you know two losses and you're completely out and they're always begging for another match

And that that just lets you know number one you did it right as a program because they're still excited about wrestling

And number two that that kid enjoys the sport and still wants to have another competition

You're done this weekend, but then there are some kids are going to be doing some other styles of wrestling, right?

Yeah, there's freestyle and Greco that starting. There's kids who can stay in our wrestling club and go ahead and participate in that stuff

We have multiple clubs in the area that support that as well. I don't want to mention any of them because I'll forget some

And I don't want to forget any of these great local clubs that support the wrestlers in this area

They're headed toward youth state

The Brewers have boasted their bullpen death

by acquiring right handed pitcher Jake Woodford

from the Tampa Bay Arrays for minor league right handed KC Hunt

Milwaukee made room for Woodford on its 40-man roster

by transferring outfielder Akeel Badu

to the 60-day injured list

the 29-year-old Woodford spent last season with the Diamondbacks

and went on four with a 644 ERA

in 23 relief appearances

he struck out 23 batters

in 36 and a third innings

he owns a 10 and 17 career record

GM Matt Arnold talked about

making the pickup right before the season

Guy we faced obviously with St. Louis

we have some history with him

and you know he's an interesting arm that can play

you know a valuable role in a number of different spots

in our bullpen or potentially even at the front of games

so again to set the point where we wanted to add some depth

to these right handed and I think we're obviously a little more

skewed to the left hand side

so we feel like he's a really good pick for us

the Brewers went out and won the game last night

it didn't matter but to the close-up spring training

and a good role sweeping two games from their national league division

rivals Cincinnati Reds

Wednesday scored American Family Field

was 4-1 Milwaukee held the Reds offends to just two runs

and a dozen hits in two games

Jake Bowers had the big day as the exhibition games were wrapped up

Bowers went two for four

with his seventh home run of the spring

now it's time to play for real

Jacob Misorowski gets the ball to start tomorrow's game

he talked about that opportunity

Every outing is to me

it's not I am going to go here and try these things

that's what bullpen's are for

catch plays for

for me it's just hey go out there and just compete

try to get as many outs as possible

and then just pitch until I take the ball away from me

that's how I've gone about each start so far

and that's when we continue to keep doing

the box are accused of tanking the NBA players association

rebuke the franchise Tuesday for holding Yana

sounds at a couple out of the lineup when he says he wants to play

Milwaukee has lost 11 and it's last 14 games

the union says keeping Yana's on the sidelines

is damaging the league's integrity

ESPN reports the NBA PA is citing the league's anti-tanking rules

and it maintains the player is healthy and ready to play

last night in the NBA Charlotte over Sacramento

134 to 90 New York 121 New Orleans

116 Cleveland 136 Orlando 131

Denver 125 Phoenix 123

Badgers spring practice continues offensive coordinator Jeff Grimes

yesterday coming it on the Badgers previous season

which was disappointing

disappointing you know I mean I want the people of Wisconsin

to feel proud of their football team I want them to

resonate with who we are and how we play offense

and how we win game the Badgers continue their spring training

with the spring game coming up soon

and a new rule in front of the NFL competition committee

could benefit Packers and star edge Russia

Micah Parsons the rule would change how players on the

Pupp list are handled Parsons is coming off a torn ACL

and as it stands now he will either start the season

on the 53 man roster or will he placed on the physically

and able to perform list if he's on the roster he'll count

against the 53 player limit even though he won't be able

to take the field until week three

the change would let him start practicing two weeks

earlier if he's on the Pupp list
