It was a classic sectional championship, with Rensselaer rated number one in the state and Wheeler rated number four. What surprised the sports reporters from Northern Indiana was not that Rensselaer won, but that they shut out Wheeler, which had averaged over fifty points per game this season.
This Friday the team will travel to Bremen for the regional championship. Regardless of what happens in that game, the football team has had a terrific season. It is interesting that two other Hoosier Conference teams are still alive in the playoffs, Tipton and West Lafayette. Tipton will be leaving the conference, but Central Catholic will be joining, and Central Catholic looks like it is the team to beat in
I recall that many years ago the SJC baseball team made it to the finals of the NCAA Division II tournament, but lost. Their success made some of the team members just about insufferable the next year. I hope that success on the sports field is being handled better by the Rensselaer football players.
My candidate for cleverest sign is the "Bank on a Win" sign at Lafayette National Bank.
My candidate for best artwork is the sign in the Balvich dental office.
