Champions!!

State, Regional, and District Championships were claimed by multiple Wolves today.

Congratulations to the WKHS Boys Water Polo Team who won the State Championship today with a victory over Mason! They won 4-3 at Mason's home pool. A special congratulations to Mitch, Joe, Brian, James, and Evan - (all "my" students). I had a chance to talk with Mitch after the game and he was so excited - he said it was absolutely incredible! Evidently Kilbourne's goalie played an amazing game. After the game everyone was going crazy and the coaches ended up in the water. Both games (tonight and last night) came down to the end and Mitch said that his Senior season couldn't have ended any better. Joe agreed and said that it was crazy and intense and that everyone not in the pool had lost their voices from yelling the whole game. What a thrilling win for the guys - and their 2nd state title! I am so happy for you all! Congratulations!

Congratulations to the WKHS Girls Water Polo Team who won the State Championship today in a thrilling overtime win against Upper Arlington! The girls won with a final score of 11-10! Upper Arlington had been the "favorite" to win states, but the Wolves took control and came out with a huge victory and the state title! Congratulations especially to Mackenzie, Alex B, Brooke, and Alex C.

Congratulations to John Batchelder who won a Regional Championship today in Cross Country! John passed a runner on the final stretch to win by about 1 second. Congratulations John and good luck running next week at States! (John will run at Scioto Downs Saturday afternoon.)

Congratulations to the WKHS Boys Soccer Team who won the District Championship today in a win over Pickerington Central (I think... it was definitely one of the Pickerington teams.) They won 3-1 and will play the winner of tonight's District final game between Thomas Worthington and Westerville Central on Tuesday night at 7pm at Dublin Coffman HS. A special congratulations to Phil, Joey, and Dan. (And since I don't usually post 2 updates in 1 day - be sure to read the update below about Phil.)
