3/27/22 CVTW: Death Threat; SCOTUS Ruling; Decertifying Election No Longer Possible; Opioid Crisis

             Chippewa Valley This Week



                                       americanactionforum.org

                                                             

Eau Claire School Board President, Tim Nordin, responds to a death threat issued against him and his family ahead of the April 5th spring election. WI Atty. Gen., Josh Kaul, comments on the SCOTUS 7-2 ruling rejecting Gov. Evers' legislative electoral maps and sending the case back to WI's Supreme Court. In contrast to what his client GOP special counsel, Michael Gableman, said two weeks prior, atty., James Bopp, who represents Gableman, tells an Assembly Comm. decertifying WI's Nov., 2020 election is no longer possible. WI's Director of Opioid Initiatives, Paul Krupski, discusses how the state is tackling the opioid crisis. Finally, we've got weekly radio addresses from State Sen., Dan Feyen(R-Fond du lac), highlighting more than a decade of GOP tax cuts, and State Sen., Janis Ringhand(D-Evansville), touting Democratic support for WI farmers.

3/11/22 WIAA Division 5 Basketball State Semi-Final: (2) Wisconsin Rapids Assumption 36, (3) McDonell Lady Macks 35

In their third straight postseason rematch, this time against the defending state champs, the Lady Macks (25-4, 12-2 Western Cloverbelt Conference) faced the young but talented Royals (27-3, 14-2 Marawood - South), at the Resch Center in Green Bay.

McDonell jumped out to an early advantage, but Assumption counterpunched with a flurry of three-point shooting to take a seven-point advantage into the half.

Without their leading scorer and rebounder for almost the entire second half, McDonell fell behind by as many as 12, but battled back valiantly - taking the lead with just over a minute to play - before seeing their comeback bid fall just short at the final horn.


WOGO "RadioActive" Award Watch:
Junior forward Marley Hughes helped spark a second half comeback, scoring 7 of her team-high 10 points after the break. Before sitting out the majority of the second, senior guard Lauryn Deetz tallied 8 first-half points to cap her stellar career at McDonell.
