Negaunee, MI – State Champions two years in a row and still going strong the Ishpeming Hematites held onto their undefeated status tonight as they took on longtime rivals the Negaunee Miners.

Despite the graduation last year of several strong players for the Hematites the team is still playing strong as they kept their opponents from putting any points on the scoreboard during tonight’s game despite a solid effort by Negaunee. In fact, this was Ishpeming’s 28th straight win having not lost a game since October 2012 to none other than the Miners!

Out of curiosity and necessity I have become accustomed to wearing many hats in life. The latest hat in my collection is as owner/publisher/author/photographer/videographer for Marquette Magazine. Among other things I am a doula, certified breastfeeding counselor, NMU student, and mother of 5... whew, I'm getting tired just writing that...
