THE DIVISION 4 FIELD: Top-seeded Pacelli makes its second consecutive State appearance and its fourth overall. The Cardinals’ experience in 2003 was the most notable, winning the Division 3 championship in their first-ever trip to State. During the regular season, they were the co-champions in the South Division of the Central Wisconsin Conference standings with third-seeded Pittsville. The Cardinals earned the return trip to Grand Chute by downing Lena 8-1 in the sectional final hosted by Pacelli. Johnson Creek, the second seed in the bracket, is back in the final four for the second year in a row and for the sixth time overall. The Bluejays have advanced to the championship game twice, winning the Division 4 title in 2007 and finishing runner-up in 2012. This spring, they finished first in the South Division of the Trailways Conference. The Bluejays cruised to a 9-1 win over Elkhart Lake-Glenbeulah in the sectional final played at Oakfield to continue their quest for a State title. Pittsville is seeded third. The Panthers make their first appearance at State since 2014 and their fourth overall. They seek their first victory in the tournament having been ousted from title contention in the semifinals in each of their previous three experiences. They rolled to a five-inning, 13-3 win over Highland in Blair-Taylor Sectional finals to return to the State semifinals. The Panthers are the co-champions of the South Division of the Marawood Conference with top-seeded Pacelli this season. Fourth-seeded Edgar advances to State for the second time after the Wildcats made their initial appearance in 2023, which resulted in a loss in the semifinals. This season’s return to the semifinals was earned with a decisive 14-1 victory over Northwood/Solon Springs in the Athens Sectional final. The Wildcats are the champions in the South Division of the Marawood Conference this year.
