Gopher Wrestling Posts Best Finish Ever
If someone had told the Chatfield wrestling team that they’d end the 2012-2013 season with a win, the Gophers would’ve naturally been ‘all-in on that one.’ A third place finish probably wasn’t thei

A man possessed. Rushford-Peterson’s Seth Thompson shows a face of determination as he closes out defensively on Lanesboro’s Kole Ruud. Thompson was a determined beast (29 pts, 7 rebs, 4 assists, 4 stls) in leading the Trojans to a Sub-Section 1A game win over the Burros, 76-65. Photo by Paul Trende
Waiting For the Inevitable
It just seems to happen, probably all too often for non-Trojan fans. An opponent tests the Rushford-Peterson boys, usually early on, and then presto. R-P forces some turnovers. They score in bunches. Next thing you know, the Trojans are (comfortably) in front. The test is over. The game is over, R-P victorious. In December, Chatfield led 33-20 at the half. The Trojans then hit 8 of 13 three-pointers in the second half to prevail 67-56. In January, Lewiston-Altura held a 30-25 lead at the intermission. Over the final 7:00, the Trojans ‘D’ relinquished exactly 0 points. R-P prevailed 51-44. In February, the Lanesboro Burros were still in it at the half, trailing 44-34. And then wham, R-P ripped off a 28-1 run and it was over; final score R-P 83, Lanesboro 55.
With a spot in the Sub-Section 1A East finals hanging in the balance, upstart 4-seed Fillmore Central (7-20) tested top-seeded, #7 in state R-P (23-3). The Falcons two vertically gifted studs, 6’2” junior F Nick Powell and 6’3” senior F Dan Gatzke exploited the smaller Trojans on the inside. Powell scored 10 points and had 7 rebounds in the first half, Gatzke 9 points and 5 rebounds. Aaron Janssen’s Falcons played Tom Vix’s Trojans tough for 18:00 and went to halftime trailing by just four, 27-23. FC was testing R-P. The test continued for a few minutes into the 2nd stanza. R-P led 37-32 with 13:00 to go. And then bam; the Trojans scored on 9 of 11 possessions. A 22 to 8 run was the result. The last points were back-to-back Charlie Krambeer 3-pointers (his 5th and 6th of the night). They pushed the Trojan advantage to 59-40 with 6:45 to go. It was over. The Trojans moved into another 1A East title game with a 65-47 victory.
Young deadeyed Krambeer led the way. The sharp-shooting sophomore continues to be a integral offensive asset for the Trojans, his high-lofting soft-touched triples finding their home more oft than not. Six of ten were true versus the Falcons, for 18 of Krambeer’s game-high 20 points. He is R-P’s ‘shooter.’ Senior Phil O’Shaughnessy came off the Trojan bench and made an impact. O’Shaughnessy, a ‘driver’, gave the Trojans another offensive asset, one who doesn’t make his living from deep. He had 13 points and 3 steals. Cole Kingsley, the ‘athletic passer’, scored 11 and dished out 9 assists. Austin O’Hare chipped in 11 points and Jorli Hauge 11 rebounds. The R-P ‘D’ for .....

In the 3-Rivers conference, on a week-to-week basis, there is no rest for the weary, either on the boy’s side of things, or the girls. The Chatfield guys, via a cancellation and rescheduling, really walked straight into the teeth of the league.

It takes a very good team to go once through the 3-Rivers schedule without a defeat, to win thirteen straight games. The newly ranked (#8 in A) Rushford-Peterson Trojans boys had a chance to do each. The road to those accomplishments, and to stayi
