Portagers Win Exciting Season Finale
by Beating Mesick on Senior Night

     Tonight as we play our last home game of the 2006 season, we would like to highlight our three seniors Ronnie, Marlee, and Stephanie for all their hard work and dedication throughout the past 4 years.  
      Thank you Ronnie, Marlee, and Stephanie for all of your efforts, determination, and hard work throughout the past 4 years.  Our program has grown and will continue to grow because of each of you.  Good Luck as you play in your final home game.  

The three seniors on the team were honored between the games.

  • Marlee Herkelrath
  • Stephanie Ashworth
  • Ronnie Maidens
OOPs need to find the picture..

Our first senior, #15 Ronnie Maidens is a two-year varsity player.  She is a dual sport athlete who also runs cross country.  Last year she was selected to be on the All Conference Honorable Mention team in both sports.  This year she helped get the Cross Country team to State.  Ronnie has been the spark plug for our team the last two seasons with her give 110% mentality and positive attitude.  She will be remembered by her teammates as being full of energy and life. 

Our second senior, #32 Marlee Herkelrath, is a three year varsity player who has continually developed into being one of our key players and unsung heroes.  Last season she was selected to the All Conference Honorable Mention Team and was also the Booster Student-Athlete of the 1st Marking Period.  Marlee doesn’t settle for the status quo.  She is always looking for ways to improve herself, her teammates, and school which is what makes her a great example of a student-athlete.  She will be remembered by her teammates as fun loving and motherly. 

Our third and final senior, #40 Stephanie Ashworth, is a 3 year varsity player who tore her ACL her freshman year and as a result has had to overcome great adversity to play.  Her desire to play, combined with her strength and determination has allowed her to be one of our team’s biggest inside threats.  Stephanie will be remembered by her teammates as being carefree and always spicing things up.
