Thanks to Ante Udovicic for doing the leg work and sending these along … enjoy!
Natalie Marlowe (class of 2008)
Natalie was a multi-time all-conference basketball player for the Rockets, and was a standout volleyball and softball player and an honor student as well! This fall, she was hired as the new assistant women’s basketball coach at Hendrix College in Arkansas. Natalie recently graduated with honors from Chicago State University following a successful playing career with the Division I Cougars.
During her career at Chicago State, Natalie appeared in 116 games, recording 806 points, 422 rebounds, 386 assists and 171 steals as a four-year starter at guard/forward. She is going to have a wonderful career as a coach!
Steve Bartlein (class of 2008)
Steve was recently selected by his over 30 teammates as Team Captain for the UW Whitewater baseball team. Fantastic accomplishment, and for those that know Steve, there should be zero surprise that he received this honor.
Rich Galewski (class of 2004) & Nathan Marlowe (class of 2005)
Both Rich & Nathan had great baseball careers at South Milwaukee and have gone on to the collegiate coaching ranks, joining the UW-Platteville coaching staff. Rich recently was the freshman baseball coach at Greendale High School and Nathan recently graduated from Edgewood College, where he finished with the 5th most wins in school history as a pitcher (and he turns 26 today – Happy Birthday Nathan!)
Courtney Susedik (class of 2004)
Courtney ran in the 2011 Boston Marathon . She finished in the top 3% of women . Also, she was in the Lakefront Marathon in 2011 and finished took 14th, finishing the 26.2 miles race in 3 hrs. & 16 min. Having seen her running through all kinds of ridiculous weather on the streets of SM, I am sure she has run plenty of more races since then as well. Courtney was on the Track and Cross team while she was at SMHS.
Emily Wesley (class of 2008)
Emily was a 4-year varsity basketball player as a Rocket, and ended up winning 4 conference championships as part of the Concordia Women’s Basketball team. She is now the Varsity Assistant Girls Basketball coach at Nicolet High School! Another former Rocket who was tailor-made to coach!
Jake Zdrojewski (class of 2011)
Jake played baseball and football at South Milwaukee, so why change things now. Jake is also playing baseball and football at Lawrence University! One college sport is tough enough!
