South Milwaukee’s bid at perfection is over — but its season far from done.
Pewaukee rolled past the Rockets, 42-17, Friday night, dropping South Milwaukee to 7-1 as they prepare for the Woodland Conference championship game next week and then the WIAA playoffs.
Here is the game story. From it:
South Milwaukee coach John Galewski said his team ran into tough defense in the second half that the Rockets just couldn’t crack.
“We couldn’t run the ball,” he said. “Their defensive line is really good, and we knew that. We had some big plays in the first half, but their defensive line really stepped it up in the second half. I think that made a lot of difference.”
The Pirates next play Brown Deer before beginning the playoffs, while South Milwaukee travels to Greendale on Thursday to play for the conference championship against the undefeated Panthers.
“We go to Greendale to play for the championship,” said Galewski. “The kids played hard tonight. This really doesn’t change any of our goals. We are in the championship game next week Thursday against Greendale, and we’ll take our chances there, and we’ll have our hands full again.”
