Area football teams clinch conference title shares with Week 8 victories

Several Milwaukee-area high school football teams clinched at least a share of their conference titles in Week 8.
Muskego, Franklin, Homestead, and Grafton all secured at least a portion of their respective conference championships.
Two games between top-10 ranked teams resulted in narrow one-point and two-touchdown victories.
Multiple teams remain in contention to win or share conference titles in the final week of the regular season.

Conference title shares were clinched across the greater Milwaukee area in the second-to-last week of the high school football regular season, as several key late-season games unfolded Oct. 10.

Two top 10 battles that went down to the wire and our No. 2 team surviving a near late-season meltdown highlighted the week’s action.

Here is how the top 10 area teams fared in Week 8.

1. Muskego (7-1)

The Warriors clinched at least a share of the Classic 8 Conference title by beating Oconomowoc in Muskego, 41-10. Next: at Mukwonago, 7 p.m. Oct. 17.

2. Franklin (8-0)

Franklin survived a close call at Kenosha Indian Trail, winning 24-17 to secure at least a share of the Southeast Conference title. Next: vs. Racine Horlick, 7 p.m. Oct. 17.

3. Arrowhead (7-1)

The Warhawks trailed 14-6 at halftime before coming back to win 21-20 at home over No. 6 Sussex Hamilton. Arrowhead can clinch a share of the Classic 8 Conference title next week with a win and a Muskego loss. Next: at Kettle Moraine, 7 p.m. Oct. 17.

4. Homestead (8-0)

The Highlanders jumped out to a 21-0 lead in part on two Connor Pangallo touchdown runs and survived a late comeback bid by No. 9 Slinger to win, 28-14. The victory clinches at least a share of the North Shore Conference title. Next: at West Bend West, 7 p.m. Oct. 17.

5. Mukwonago (6-2)

Mukwonago remains alive to split the Classic 8 title next week after knocking off Waukesha West, 35-14. Next: vs. Muskego, 7 p.m. Oct. 17.

6. Sussex Hamilton (6-2)

The Chargers jumped on Arrowhead early, but could not come away with the victory in a tough road environment, losing 21-20. Next: vs. Brookfield Central, 7 p.m. Oct. 17.

7. Catholic Memorial (7-1)

The Crusaders blanked Wauwatosa East, 35-0, in a rematch of CMH’s lone Parkland Conference loss last season. CMH can clinch the title outright with a win or a New Berlin West loss next week. Next: at Waukesha South, 7 p.m. Oct. 17.

8. Grafton (8-0)

Grafton shut out Greendale, 27-0, and will clinch the Woodland Conference title with an anticipated forfeit victory taking effect next week. Next: TBD with anticipated forfeit win over Shorewood/Messmer/Dominican.

9. Slinger (6-2)

The Owls came out slow and were unable to fight their way back into a road game at Homestead, losing 28-14. Next: vs. Cedarburg, 7 p.m. Oct. 17.

10. New Berlin West (7-1)

The Vikings remain alive for a share of the Parkland Conference title with a win and a Catholic Memorial loss next week after defeating Wauwatosa West, 20-18, at home. Next: vs. New Berlin Eisenhower, 7 p.m. Oct. 17.

Milwaukee Record Cats Of The Week: Phoenix and Rebel

Milwaukee Record is working in partnership with Urban Cat Coalition to help find loving homes for area cats. Each week, we—with generous sponsorship from Skilos, A Family Pet Store—plan to highlight a feline friend that’s currently up for adoption by naming it “Milwaukee Record’s Cat Of The Week.” This week: bonded tabbies Phoenix and Rebel.

Meet Phoenix (m) and Rebel (f), a dynamic duo of playful tabbies who are looking for a forever home to call their own! These two are a bonded pair and must be adopted together because where one goes, the other is sure to follow. They take their hangout time together very seriously.

Phoenix is the ultimate charmer, he is a sweet, attention-loving gray tabby who’s always ready for pets and play time. He can be shy at first, but once he gets to know you, he’s all in for head scratches and playful laser pointer sessions. You might call him the leader of the two because his patience and kindness help his shy bestie come out of her shell.

Rebel (aka the shy bestie) is the perfect partner-in-crime for Phoenix, the yin to his yang, the moon to his sun, the cream to his coffee…you get it. Although Rebel is is a little more reserved, she is an equally loving cat who just prefers to interact with us humans on her own terms. Once she feels comfortable, she happily accepts affection with scratches and soft pets but she needs a little more time to trust new people and prefers to be the one to call the shots.

Together, they make the perfect pair. With plenty of toys, treats, and a safe space to explore at their own pace, these two will flourish and be a wonderful addition to a quiet, loving household.

If you’re looking for a duo who will bring tons of love into your home (with just a touch of patience!), Rebel and Phoenix promise to reward your kindness with a lifetime of fun and loyal companionship.
