Cow ‘Georgia Keeffee’ returns to Sun Prairie with a makeover


SUN PRAIRIE, Wis. (WMTV) – Starting on Wednesday, nine local and national artists are transforming Sun Prairie’s downtown area into a collection of giant murals to commemorate the city’s artistic heritage.

Sun Prairie hosts Mural Fest every year to celebrate local artists.

In conjunction with Mural Fest, the beloved Georgia “Cow” Keeffee got a makeover for the first time in 18 years.

In addition to the festival celebrating local art, it also supports businesses and brings the community together.

“Public art humanizes a built environment and invigorates public spaces,” said Barbara Behling, who is tourism director for the City of Sun Prairie. “It provides an intersection.”

The grand reveal of the artwork will be during Mural Fest from 5-8 p.m. on Thursday, June 26.

LSU Falls to Georgia in Series Finale


ATHENS, Ga. – Designated hitter Daniel Jackson and centerfielder Rylan Lujo combined for nine RBI Sunday, leading fifth-ranked Georgia to a 12-1 win over LSU at Foley Field.

Georgia improved to 41-11 overall, 21-6 in the SEC, while LSU dropped to 29-24 overall and 9-18 in conference play.

The Tigers return to action at 6:30 p.m. CT Thursday when they play host to Florida in Game 1 of a three-game SEC series in Alex Box Stadium, Skip Bertman Field. Thursday’s game will be broadcast on the LSU Sports Radio Network and streamed on SEC Network +.

“Georgia won the moments in this series,” said LSU coach Jay Johnson. “They’re going to score, so you’ve got to capitalize against them when you have scoring opportunities on offense.”

Georgia starting pitcher Caden Aoki (8-0) was the winner, limiting LSU to one run on four hits in 5.0 innings with two walks and seven strikeouts.

LSU right-hander Casan Evans (2-3), making his first appearance since April 17 versus Texas A&M, started the game Sunday and was charged with the loss, working 1.2 innings and allowing four runs on four hits with two walks and three strikeouts.

“I thought Casan’s stuff looked great, and that’s good for him from a health standpoint,” Johnson said. “He’s a guy that the more he pitches, the better he is, so there might have been a little bit of rust, but I thought he competed fine.”

Georgia struck for four runs in the bottom of the second inning in an outburst highlighted by Jackson’s two-out, two-run single and an RBI single by second baseman Ryan Black.

The Tigers narrowed the gap to 4-1 in the third when designated hitter Omar Serna Jr. delivered an RBI single.
