Senior basketball players Conor Behr, Ryan Holland, Sam Hesselbacher, Jon Martensen, Khalid Newton and Jacob Townsend finished up their careers last week with wins over River Ridge and West Carroll.  Coach Wienen nominated all six, saying “last week was a powerful one as someone who has coached this group since 4th grade.  It was bittersweet to watch their final moments play out on the court this week. They have had some great moments here in their Galena basketball career. I’m so happy of their accomplishments and looking forward to seeing their growth as young men. We didn’t get to finish their careers with the goal we set (winning a regional), but this group’s positive impact on our school, community, and each other is better than any trophy we would ever bring back. It’s been an honor to be your coach, the lessons that we have both taught each other I’m forever grateful for.  Thank you Conor, Ryan, Sam, Jon, Khalid and Jacob for a wonderful season, career, and everything you’ve given to our basketball program these last 4 years. We appreciate the grit and talent you all have brought to our basketball program. Thank you for your hard work, effort and commitment you’ve given! ☠️”
