todayNovember 16, 2017

On  the eve of the state championship game the Saint Mary’s Springs football  team is in  the news for the wrong reasons.    Fond du Lac Police were called to the Pizza Ranch restaurant last night for a disorderly conduct complaint.  The manager told police three football players were caught stealing buffet dinners.  The manager told officers the players were confronted and they did eventually pay.  She said team members come in every week and destroy the room they use and would like them to be held responsible for their actions.  According to a police log, head coach Bob Hyland was contacted and made aware of the ongoing issues.   Hyland told WFDL news  he is  aware of the incident and is investigating,  Hyland would not say if any of the  players involved would be suspended from today’s championship game at Camp Randall stadium in Madison.  Hyland says he has not talked to the players involved yet and cannot comment any further at this time.
This morning St. Mary’s Springs president Kelly Norton  sent an email to parents regarding the incident:.
We are not in a position to comment on the nature or details of the incident as it is in the hands of the FDL Police Department. However, as information is presented to the Administration of SMSA, we will manage the situation per the policies outlined in our student handbook and code of conduct. It is our expectation that our students and school community, whether on our campus grounds or elsewhere, serve as examples of the core values and Christian character that we teach and expect of one another.   Despite these circumstances, let this not be a deterrent from the importance, magnitude and community celebration of today, for there are many students, coaches, fans, and friends that have supported us on our journey to Madison. As we travel there today with our team, students and school, please remember we are ONE–in faith and community! GO LEDGERS!
In Christ,
Kelly
