Fall Sports Update The St. Mary’s—Sleepy Eye-New Ulm Cathedral Knights cross country team learned a lot about themselves this year according to Coach Scott DeMaris. The importance of being in good condition as the season starts was very evident as the season went on. “We were not able to race well early in the season, and, as others were peaking, it seemed we were still getting in racing shape,” said DeMaris. The team struggled to have a full team for parts of this season. For the girls’ team, this meant having two seventh graders run. Junior Kari Schumacher, daughter of Dean (’76) and Julie was a very consistent top runner. She was our top runner for the 5 th straight year. This included her victory at the Tomahawk Conference Meet. Senior Amanda Goblirsch, daughter of David and Michelle was our most improved runner. Winning the Conference Meet was a big highlight for the girls’ team. For the boys, freshman Stephen Joyce, son of James and Kathleen, threatened at times to take over the top spot. St. Mary’s looks for him to help lead the way again next year. “We will miss all of our seniors and hope for our underclassmen to return with a great excitement to improve on this year’s results,” concluded DeMaris. The River Valley Wildcats tennis team, under the direction of head coach Brad Goede, ended their season with a 6-14 record. The River Valley Wildcats include players from St. Mary’s, Sleepy Eye Public School, and Springfield Public School. St. Mary’s players include senior Larissa Krebs, daughter of Shari (’90), and freshmen Erika Ries, daughter of Bill and Julie, and Kacie Goblirsch, daughter of David and Michelle. Under the direction of head coach Angie Novotny and assistant coaches Julie Lilleodden and Andrew Bach, the Lady Knights volleyball team ended their season with a 9-15 record. Seven seniors led the team: Allison Woitas, daughter of Bruce and Mary; Courtney Schneider, daughter of Kevin Schneider and Amy Wendinger; Ellen Mathiowetz, daughter of Dean Mathiowetz and Judy Mathiowetz; Natalie Schwartz, daughter of John (‘74) and Rose; Mandee Heiderscheidt, daughter of Todd (‘83) and Maureen (Berkner ‘85); Lex Domeier, daughter of Gary and LeAnn (Lund ‘90); and Alex Brinkman, daughter of Dean (‘81) and Sandy. Team awards were given to Allison Woitas for Leadership; Mandee Heiderscheidt for MVP; and Jessica Schmitz, daughter of Tony (‘82) and Lisa (Mages ‘84), as Most Improved. Maddy Helget, daughter of Terry and Tammy, earned All Conference honors with Mandee Heiderscheidt as All Conference Honorable Mention. CORRECTION: Named to Tomahawk Conference All Academic Team was Molly Lax, daughter of Monica (Sellner ’79) and Rick Lax. Molly’s parents were incorrectly identified in the last RECALL; we apologize for the error!

Dear Alumni and Friends of St. Mary’s School: These are exciting days for St. Mary’s as we rejoice with our Knights football team as they won the section championship and moved forward to the state game at the Dome. I want to commend each and every player for their sportsmanship as well as hard work and determination to do their best. I wish to thank the coaching staff, especially Brent Kucera, who has done a great job in leading our team. May God guide and bless all of you so that He may be glorified through you. We have just finished our first quarter and, from all indications, it was a great success. Our students are applying themselves earnestly and accomplishing one of the primary ends of our school: to be educated in order to be able to do whatever God asks of them in this life. We have begun our Alumni & Friends Annual Appeal. As you know the cost of carrying on the work of Catholic education is becoming increasingly more challenging. This is particularly true of a Catholic education endeavor such as St. Mary’s. A parish with a pre-school through 12 th grade Catholic School is extremely rare today. It is possible only through the dedication, commitment and sacrifices of the people of St. Mary’s Parish and you, our alumni and friends of St. Mary’s. This appeal helps us meet our budget and thus carry on this great work which is such a vital ministry of the parish of St. Mary’s. Our school exists to carry on the mission of Jesus who gave the command to go out to the world to baptize and teach the message of the Gospel, the Good News that Jesus has suffered and died for them and has risen from the dead thus opening the gates of heaven. We will be grateful for whatever you can give to help us continue the mission of Jesus here at St. Mary’s. This work is vital for our Church and our society. In these trying economic times, your sacrifice will take on special meaning and significance as it draws all of us close to Christ who gave His all for us. May God bless you and may His name be praised forever. Msgr. Eugene L. Lozinski Pastor/Superintendent ALUMNI and FRIENDS MAILBAG The Alumni Mailbag is a great place for you to let your fellow alumni know what is going on!
