Jarred Lucas Receives Honor


Student Reporter: Tim Baumann


One of Cedar Grove–Belgium’s high school seniors, Jarred Lucas, has been honored with Unanimous First Team All Badger Land. This is an honor for the five best and hardest working hockey players in the Badger Land conference. Being unanimously selected means that every coach in their conference agreed he deserved first team. The conference had a lot of great players, including Matt Pappe from state ranked number one Appleton United, Casey Holmes from the number six Fon du lac Cardinals, and Max McCormick from the number 12 Notre Dame tritons.


Jarred ended the season with 4 goals and 22 assists; great numbers for a defensive player. It is not all about the amount of points they have on the year, but also has to do with the effort and how much they contributed in their team’s success. Jarred averaged forty eight minutes of the fifty one minutes possible during the games. During the games Jarred helped the goalie out protecting the net, and only let 2.9 goals a game.


“It’s an honor to receive this award and it was fairly unexpected, but I have to give a lot of credit to my teammates, I couldn’t have done it without them,” said Jarred Lucas when asked about his award.


On behalf of everyone in the Cedar Grove-Belgium community, congratulations Jarred and good luck to you in the future.
