Did you know? The winning streak for B-B-E in the conference doesn't mean much to me right now. The fact remains that Howard Lake-Waverly-Winsted won 44 conference games in a row in the CMC from 2000 to 2002, and B-B-E's not there yet. Now, of course, we set our sights on the playoffs...and again, however many wins they've got in a row in the regular season or the conference won't get them anywhere in the postseason. I am thankful to know our team is about as level-headed and laser-focused on "one game at a time" as any in the state. Right as the final horn sounded tonight in Pierz, there wasn't any type of celebration by the players. It was just another game to them, and they are anything but satisfied with what they've accomplished so far.
Still, 26 wins is nothing to sneeze at!
Awesome! At 23:42 on Saturday night, as I was wrapping up some last edits on my web articles, photos and video, I noticed on my "hit counter" on this website that it read 110,000! A total of 404 individual people have visited this website today alone!
