From the first game of the season to the last game, I would say that we were a completely different team. Players figured out their roles and did what was needed for the team. One of the highlights of our season was beating Cathedral in triple overtime at the Homecoming game; this is a game that will always be remembered! Other highlights included winning our second straight Conference Championship which was a huge accomplishment. Prior to this, it had been 37 years VLQFH6W0DU\¶VKDGZRQRQH)HZ.QLJKWVIDQVZLOOIRU get the amazing way we won our state quarterfinal game against Lester Prairie/Holy Trinity with a score of 20-14. We drove 90 yards in 10:38 and ended the game on the 1yard line without scoring. It was also a great accomplishment to get to play in the Dome before it was torn down. It was incredible to see the team running around on the field two hours before the game. We were the only ones on the field. Those are memories the team will never forget. Coach Matt Andres and 'XVW\ 0DQJHQ ¶ have really changed the mentality of St. Mary's football. Coach 0DUN6LPRQ¶ has helped to turn the lineman around. We averaged 215 pounds on the front line. The linemen were led by senior Andy Steffl, son of 'DQ ¶ and Lisa, who was a scoring threat as well. He had a receiving TD and an interception for a TD. That is impressive considering he is 6'4" and 260 pounds. It was great to see a player actually wanting to be a lineman now and not just a QB. That shows how much Simon has done. All of the recent success has been great to be part of. I still look back to the 2011 season and give that senior class credit for getting this program on the right track. They gave this program the motivation and confidence it needed to reach its potential. Shortly after our last game this year, the team was in the weight room already working for next season. We are setting high goals for ourselves again. We will be a senior dominated team. It is up to them to get this team motivated for another great season! Our coaches and players amassed many well-deserved awards. Andrew Steffl earned the title of Lineman of the Year, Play of the Year (pick 6 vs. Springfield during playoffs), the Charlie Hale Award, All Conference and All Journal Team. Junior Carter Krzmarzick, son of Clint ¶ and Kelly, was awarded Defense MVP, Leadership, All Conference and All Journal Team. Junior David Surprenant, son of Scott and Judy, was awarded Offense MVP, All Conference and All Journal Team. He also had a career game with 250 yards on 34 carries. Senior Mike Hirsch, son of 7RP ¶ and 6KDURQ 6LPRQVHQ ¶, was awarded the Charlie Hale Award and All Conference Honorable Mention. Senior Nathan Lax, son of Randy and Diane, and juniors Lucas Heiderscheidt, son of 7HUU\¶ and Shelly, and Brandon Helget, son of Bill ¶ and -HQQ\ %UDXOLFN ¶, were also named All Conference, with senior John Brandl, son of Doug and Deb (Schueller ¶76), as All Conference Honorable Mention. Helget was also included in the All Journal Team. Sophomore Kodan Kosak, son of *DU\¶ and Shelly *URHEQHU¶, was named Most Improved, while junior Cody Gilliland, son of Rick and /RUL 0HUW] ¶, was Rookie of the Year.

First of all, for many of us Sisters, I think, the first place we minister at IS our favorite place! I know that is true for me. The memories stay so vividly alive. Being a teacher is absolutely the best experience if one ever changes careers. I became a social worker after my teaching experience not because I GLGQ¶W OLNH WHDFKLQJ EXW EHFDXVH , ZDV EHLQJ HGXFDWHG WR be a social worker before I was asked to teach so I said yes and took a break for 8 years to teach in Sleepy Eye, and then went back to continue my studies to finish my education to be a social worker. Even in Social Work and Pastoral Counseling, I always would draw on the skills and experience of being a teacher. God blessed me abundantly to lead me to a very unexpected reality of being a teacher. I thank God that I was gifted with the experience of teaching the most wonderful children and living in a very, very special place, Sleepy Eye, and working with the greatest staff and people in our parish. I hold you all in love and prayer. May God bless each and every one of you. Many thanks for who you are and how you blessed my life. ~Sister Kay Wagner 'HDU$OXPQLDQG)ULHQGVRI6W0DU\¶V6FKRRO After much soul searching and prayer, Mr. Neubauer has submitted his resignation as principal of St. 0DU\¶V+LJK6FKRRO+HZDVKLUHGDVSULQFLSDOLQWKXVKHOHDYHVEHKLQGDOHJDF\RI\HDUVDV SULQFLSDODQGVHYHUDO\HDUVRIWHDFKLQJDVZHOODVFRDFKLQJ6W0DU\¶VKDVEHQHILWHGIURPKLVZLVGRP and dedication to the well being of each and every student as well as each and every faculty member, support staff and school personnel.
