Quickly from Friday

Saw a lot of people Friday at Menasha for the boy's basketball game between Menasha and Neenah.

Among them, was Brett Christoperson of the Post-Crescent. He was working, too.

And what did those who happened to drop by the Menasha High School Fieldhouse learn in watching Neenah overwhelm the rival Bluejays 53-30?

"We showed them that we're ready to play," Rockets senior guard Brock Brixius said. "That we're a good team, and we're a contender for the FVA championship."

Consider that a warning shot, an apropos finale on the night since Neenah spent the better part of the contest trying to fire off as many as possible as it improved to 4-2 overall and 3-2 in league play.

Neenah had a three point lead at halftime. They outscored Menasha 8-0 in the first 91 seconds of the second half and never looked back.

Quick story from a pre-game talk with Neenah head coach Chas Pronschinske. He was playing for UW-Stevens Point when I was at UW-Platteville. My first words after I told him that was: Man, we hated you.

He laughed.

Thank, Clemente.

I'll be working with Ted Stefaniak on Tuesday for Sports 32. Wauwatosa West at Appleton East.
