Sports Desk: Bond, Baudler given Wolverine of the Week; Baudler goes into Hall for gold medal

“I have a feeling this week’s winner is going to be a no-brainer,” said Patty Cakes.

“I’m sure that I can guess the winner also,” said Legion Steve.

“You probably can guess one of the winners anyway,” I said.

“Must be multiple awards this week,” said Decatur Spence.

“Anybody that is going to be on my bowling team?” asked P. Buckmiller.

“I have a question,” said JL

“What is it?” I asked.

“Now that it is getting cold outside, could we find an inside meeting place again?” JL asked.

“That only seems logical to me,” said Big Red.

“Is that noise recognizable to anyone else?” asked JL.

“Sounds like a band playing,” I said.

“You don’t suppose it could be, you know,” said JL.

“You mean The Tony Tiger Band?” asked Big Red.

“Yes,” said JL.

“Why are the playing sounds of the 50s?” I asked.“I thought they played rock and roll.”

‘He just found out someone is older than he thought, and he is trying to get on their good side,” said Patty Cakes.

“I don’t think this person would relate to the fifties,” I said.

“Let’s get on with the winner or winners as it seems,” said Decatur Spence.“It’s getting colder as the night goes on.”

“Probably could get something with a little fire in it at Mary Long’s store,” I said. “Problem is, she’s closed for the night.”

“A few Jalapeno eggs would go good right now,” said Legion Steve.

“That would warm you up,” I said.

“Maybe, you didn’t hear me a few sentences ago,” said Decatur Spence.“It’s getting colder outside.”

“Alright,” I said.“Let’s make it easy. We had a couple of kids do something special this week.Josh Baudler won the Class 1A cross-country title, while Corinne Bond set the new mark in blocked shots for the volleyball team.”

“They the winners?” asked P. Buckmiller.“Can I name them this week?”

“Go ahead,” I said.

“Thanks,” said P. Buckmiller.“Corrine Bond and Josh Baudler, you are our Wolverines of the Week.”

“Great job,” I said.

Hall of Fame

“This should be an easy choice as well,” I said.“Corrine will have her chance at an later date, but Josh has to be inducted this time around. I believe he is already in for something else, but this is all his.Any state champion has to be in our Hall of Fame.So there you have it, Josh Baudler, you are this week’s inductee into our Hall of Fame.”
