4/14/24 CVTW: The Importance of Connections and Mental Health

Chippewa Valley This Week

With Jacobs Well Church(989 122nd St., Chippewa Falls) bringing in Will Hutcherson for discussions on mental health this Friday night(Students) and Saturday morning(Parents), April 19th and 20th, we hear from Hutcherson and his co-author on two books--"Seen" and "Beyond the Spiral"--Dr. Chinwe Williams, a mental health therapist, on five keys to helping teens dealing with anxiety.

Hutcherson's work as a Next Gen and Student Pastor led him to start Curate Hope, a non-profit focusing on suicide prevention and mental health awareness, and partnering with schools, churches, and parents to help heal despair in teens.

4/13/24 Softball(2): Chippewa Falls-19,15 Marshfield-1,2

Chippewa Falls (6-0, 4-0) continued their torrid hitting, sweeping Marshfield (3-4, 1-0) in a doubleheader at Casper Park: 19-1(5 inn.) and 15-2 (6 inn.). On the day the Cards scored in nine of their ten innings at the plate, only failing to do so in the fourth inning of the second game.

Chi-Hi got four innings of solid pitching from freshman Violet McIlquham in game one as fellow freshman, Delany Bero, secured the win by pitching the fifth. Meanwhile in game two senior Lakken McEathron made her season debut by pitching four innings of shutout ball before giving way to junior, Delany Berg, for the final two innings.

The Cardinals lead-off hitter, shortstop Kenna Johnston, topped a ton of great hitting performances, going 7-9 on the day with three doubles, four singles, four runs scored and two RBIs, while catcher, Lauren Shepherd, had three hits including a homer and five RBIs in game one, and center fielder, Paige Steinmetz, hit a grand slam in the nightcap.

4/12/24 Baseball: Eau Claire Regis 7, McDonell Macks 2

Playing Regis for the second straight night, this time in their home opener, the Macks (2-2, 0-2 Western Cloverbelt Conference) fell behind by an early run to the Rambers (2-3, 2-0 WCC) but quickly came back to tie the game after one.

Regis was simply not to be denied at the plate however, as they smashed seven doubles while riding a strong pitching performance from freshman Chase Brogelman.

The Macks mounted a significant bases-loaded threat in the bottom of the sixth but only managed to put one run across, and afterward a two-out, bases-loaded triple in the seventh helped the Ramblers put the game out of reach.

4/11/24 Softball: Chippewa Falls 11, Hudson 7

Back in action at Casper Park, Chi-Hi (4-0, 4-0 Big Rivers Conference), gave up a run in the top of the first against Hudson (2-2, 2-2 BRC), before a pair of homers from sophomore catcher Lauren Shepherd and senior second baseman Mykle Buhrow, each with two outs in the second, gave them back the lead.

The Raiders responded with 5 runs in the top of the second, and carried that 6-3 lead into the bottom of the third, when Chi-Hi's patience at the plate pulled them back even, plating another three runs.

After a scoreless top of the 4th, the offensive fireworks began again for the Lady Cards. With the bases loaded, Shepherd came to the plate and blasted a grand slam to left center field to blow the game open.

Chi-Hi did not score again, but strong pitching and defense preserved the lead as they remained unbeaten to start the year.
