Koenig did this by winning both titles at the 126# weight class. This past February, Koenig won the 113# weight class at the WIAA Division 2 State Tournament, which is folkstyle wrestling. By winning all three styles, Koenig has achieved the highly coveted “triple crown” in the state of Wisconsin.

Prairie du Chien track team competes at Richland Center

On a beautiful evening, the temperature at 81 degrees, the girls laced up their spikes and hit the track running. The will to win means nothing if you haven’t the will to prepare as Meg Katzung picked up 1st place wins in the 3200m (PR-13:32) and Pole Vault (8’0”) on the evening. Once they say set, I’m in beast mode as Madi Fisher pounded out PR’s in the 100m (3rd place), 200m (4th place), and 400m (5th place). My fastest time? I haven’t run it yet as Teagan Radloff hit PR’s in the Triple Jump with a 1st place (32’3.75) and 400m with a 2nd place (1:04.70) on the night.
