The Waterloo West Wahawks promised to be a bigger and bulkier football squad this season.
Alas, all that might didn’t translate into a win on opening night. In fact, Dubuque Wahlert raced right past the host Wahawks, 42-19, Friday at Memorial Stadium.
“We’ve got a lot of speed,” noted Wahlert’s cat-quick tailback, Riley McCarron, whose 211 yards of total offense spurred the visitors.
“Even our line is quick,” McCarron added. “The line got off the ball and did a great job. … We came out with a lot of energy.”
Wahlert lists just 10 …

CEDAR RAPIDS — There were no celebratory parties or anything for wins 905 and 906. Just another long bus ride home after a job well done by his team.
“Sometimes I’ll think about ‘Well, there aren’t too many above me,’” Dubuque Wahlert baseball coach Jerry Roling said last night after his Golden Eagles swept Cedar Rapids Xavier, 5-1 and 8-1, at Xavier. “But, overall, I’m just thankful and feel blessed that I’ve had the opportunity to coach so many years and remain healthy. You’ve just got to feel thankful with each …

A pair of strong pitching performances propelled the Waterloo East softball squad to a sweep of Dubuque Wahlert Tuesday as the Trojans won, 4-1 and 8-0.
Alyson Netty and Kesley Rash both fired complete-game two-hitters for East.
Solid hitting was also East’s ally on this evening. In game one, Katelyn Kinnetz, Netty and Megan Dunn also registered two hits apiece.

You can’t stop Isaac Frisch. You can only hope to contain him.
Dubuque Wahlert hasn’t even been able to do that in this Class 2A state soccer tournament championship game at Cownie Park in Des Moines. A freshman, Frisch scored two first-half goals to give Cedar Rapids Xavier a 2-0 lead on its Mississippi Valley Conference rival.
Frisch had one goal in the regular season but scored with 11:01 left in the opening 40 minutes, then added another one with 3:45 left.  Charlie Bales has been Xavier’s …

To heck with the Mississippi Valley Conference.
Forgive the Marion Indians if they choose a word that’s stronger then “heck” in this case. They lost four basketball games this season, and three of them were to MVC teams.
That includes Dubuque Wahlert, which pulled away in the fourth quarter for a 59-50 win in a Class 3A district final last night at Cedar Rapids Kennedy.
“I knew it was going to be a battle coming in,” said Wahlert sophomore guard Jake May, brother of Iowa freshman Eric May, who led his team with …
