Veteran NOW sports writer Steven L. Tietz uses his blog, "Steve’s Cheers and Jeers," to duly reward the great, praise heartily the hard-working, uncover the unsung, and take to task the spoilsport, the foul-mouth and the crass in the local prep sports scene.

In watching film of Waukesha West play Waukesha South in a game earlier this season, Germantown girls basketball coach Matt Stuve noticed that West missed a lot of open 3-pointers.
Make no mistake about it. This is a time when Jesse Thielke wants to win big. He wants to win in front of a big crowd in his state. He wants to win in front of those who have always had high expectations of him.(2)
Our sports staff weighs in an a variety of topics on the local sports scene
There were grand moments to spare in the prep athletic worlds of Menomonee Falls and Germantown in 2009 but some of the very best had little to do with wins or losses or championships or epic finishes.
With the economy down, the charitable fund-raising portion of the head coaching position for the Wisconsin Basketball Coaches Association All-Star Classic isn't as easy for Germantown's Steve Showalter as when he was an assistant four years ago.
Though the sometimes larger than life presence of former coach Todd Brawner still lingers a bit around the camp of the Germantown boys track team, life goes on for the unit, which will have new leaders this season and a new outlook.
The sports season is full swing at Germantown and Menomonee Falls high schools. And throughout the school year, we will be updating this gallery with the latest photos from all the sports at our local high schools. See the 2008-09 gallery.
Menomonee Falls defeated Germantown, 74-61, in a sectional semifinal March 12 at the Al McGuire Center.
Germantown defeated visiting Homestead, 63-56, on the opening round of the Division 1 tournament March 9.
Host Germantown defeated Hamilton, 56-45, in a regional final March 6.
Area gymnasts gave it their all when berths in the state meet were on the line at the WIAA Division 1 Arrowhead Sectional on Feb. 27.
