RHS sports recap: Tuesday, May 30
The Rhinelander High School baseball team saw its season come to an end Tuesday with a 9-2 loss to Medford in the WIAA Division 2 regional semifinals.
Medford took the lead with three runs in the third inning and tacked on six more in the fourth, capped off by a Ty Metz three-run homer. Metz also pitched six innings for the Raiders, scattering two hits.
Rhinelander scored a run in the fourth as Cody Everson doubled and came around on a Barak Rappley grounder. Tyler Morrison drew a pinch-hit walk in the seventh and scored on a wild pitch.
Max Ratty gave up nine runs on nine hits over four innings in defeat. James Heck worked the final two innings scoreless for the Hodags.
Rhinelander finishes the year with an 8-14 record.
Golf: Rhinelander 5th/8, WIAA Sectionals
The Rhinelander High School golf team will be represented at the WIAA state meet for the first time in at least a decade and a half.
Sophomore Sam Schoppe survived a double bogey on the 18th hole Tuesday to shoot 80 and place ninth in a WIAA Division 1 sectional at RiverEdge Golf Course in Marshfield. Schoppe was the third of three individual qualifiers to advance who were not already on a qualifying team after the Hodags shoot 336 and took fifth in the eight-team meet.
Schoppe moved on after River Falls' Ryan Swanson also double bogeyed the 18th about 45 minutes after Schoppe got to the clubhouse, bumping Schoppe into the final transfer spot.
Brody Kowieski went out in 1-over 37 but couldn't keep it together on the back nine and faded to 17th with an 83. Senior Andrew Henrichs shot 86 in his final meet, tying for 24th. Blake Petroff carded an 87 and Braden Mork shot 101.
The WIAA state meet will take place June 5 and 6 at Blackwolf Run in Kohler.
