Milwaukee League Results

On March 3, the KML Chargers finished Milwaukee league play at the City Championships. Strong play all season earned the Chargers Division 1 seeding and opportunity to play for the overall championship. We were seeded 4th in D1, and after playing tough games, came away in 4th place out of 11 schools, 23 teams in all. The tough games helped prepare us for the State meet March 18-19 in Oshkosh.
