March 23, 1953 Oshkosh Northwestern
It's been a lot of years, 61 in fact, since Menasha High has brought home state honors of such magnitude. Congratulations to the Bluejays, to the coaching staff, to all their supporters, to the high school, and the city of Menasha on their state football championship. I'm sure the celebration was just as enthusiastic, if not more, than what was experienced in 1953, as seen above, for basketball. Way to go, Jays!
And to the Bluejay Brigade and their music!!
ReplyDeleteAmen to that!
ReplyDeleteThe St Mary champs that same year featured freshman Ron Debelius, a 13 year old (!!!), 6'1", unselfish, team player forward who could hit the new fangled fade away jump shot from anywhere on the court and drive for a finger tip roll layup behind the basket.
