CONGRATULATIONS TO THE WAUPACA COMETS

The Waupaca Comets completely throttled the Kewaskum Indians today, 42-0, at Ingalls Field before a crowd of over 3,000 fans. While we all hoped for a closer game, it was a great opportunity to show off the improvments at Ingalls Field, as well as pulling the curtain down on a successful initial season (no Ripon team lost on the turf). And, while I cannot give you an exact, precise number, today's game was a boost to the local economy and that cannot be denied or debated or disputed (though it probably will be). You could see the evidence downtown just based on the number of people, with their decorated Comet vehicles, after the game eating in our establishments. The comments from the fans and players was also very positive. All in all, it was a good day to show off Ripon and its facilities.

Good luck in Madison, Waupaca, and make us fellow Eastern Valley Conference members proud.
