The Sevastopol girls cross country stood tall against bigger competition and led them to some extra hardware at the Russ Fameree Invitational.

The high school girls team took home a 2nd place finish in the small school division. Bea Dramm was 8th overall. Naomi Rikkola and Ruth Wilke ran person records on the soggy course. 

Even coach Annie Kapolnek got into the action, taking first in the female coach/alumni 3.1 mile race with a time of 22:03.

With the 1991 state champs looking on, the Sevastopol Pioneers volleyball carried the torch for them with a convincing 3-0 win over Gibraltar Thursday.

The Pioneers stood up to the Vikings' challenge in the first game with a 25-22 victory, but cruised in the final two sets  25-11, 25-11. 

Leading the way for the Pioneers was Madi Volkmann (14 kills), Johanna Andrea (10 kills), Bailey Rikkola (22 digs), and Emma Stueber (32 assists). 

The Sevastopol volleyball team will honor one its program's best squads ahead of its match against Gibraltar Thursday.

It was 30 years ago when the Pioneers brought home the gold ball in the sport, beating Cuba City to take the title. The Pioneers could be on their way towards something similar as they boast a 23-5 mark on the season and 8-2 record over their last 10 matches. The Vikings have lost their last four matches including Tuesday's 3-0 loss to Southern Door.

The 1991 team will be honored after the JV game at around 6:15-6:30 p.m. The varsity game will start at 7 p.m.

Gibraltar/ Sevastopol lost to the Peshtigo 4-1 Tuesday night in EWC/Packerland Boys Soccer.  The Vikoneers are now 2-4-2 in the conference and 4-6-2 overall.  Peshtigo improves to 4-3 in the EWC/Packerland and 8-4-1 overall.

Sevastopol volleyball sweeps Kewaunee

The Sevastopol Pioneers rolled on the volleyball court Tuesday night with a 3-0 sweep of the Kewaunee Storm.  The Pioneers were led by Madi Volkmann and Sam Differt with nine kills each.  Bailey Rikkola added 17 digs, and Claire Haberli served up seven aces.  Emma Stueber contributed 22 assists as well and the Pioneers won convincingly 25-14, 25-8, and 25-13. 

The Sevastopol Pioneers needed only one good quarter to completely turn the game around for them in a 54-14 homecoming victory over Gillett Friday night.

The Tigers shocked the Pioneers with 14 first-quarter points and shutting out the Pioneers through the first 12 minutes of play. The  Pioneers' defense would pitch a shutout the rest of the way while the offense came alive. Ja ck de Young threw three touchdowns and ran for another to lead the Pioneers to a 34-point outburst in the second quarter. Cesar Sandoval would also take a punt back for a touchdown in the game's decisive second quarter.

Sandoval, de Young, and Atlee Manson would all score rushing touchdowns in the third quarter before the game went to a running clock in the fourth quarter.

The Pioneers could act as spoilers over the next two weeks with games against Algoma and Gibraltar.

Members of the Sevastopol volleyball hope the good vibes start well before the homecoming dance when they host a Saturday quad.

The Pioneers will host Southern Door, Iowa-Grant, and Two Rivers when the action begins at 9 a.m. Two Rivers is one of two teams to have beaten the Pioneers in the month of September. The Pioneers otherwise won 12 matches without dropping a set in the process. The Eagles are still flying high after Thursday's win over Kewaunee after being down 2-0.

It was a small meet, but coach Annie Kapolnek says Thursday's meet at Cherry Hills Golf Course in Sturgeon Bay was a great day and lots of good races for Sevastopol, Gibraltar, and De Pere.

The Redbirds had the only complete team among the three teams in the boys race with Sevastopol not running anyone in the varsity. The Pioneers only had one runner in the top 7 as the Redbirds captured the girls varsity race. Bea Dramm led the way with a 5K time of 21:14.
