A spirited voting period ended Friday, and Marshfield Columbus has been selected as the WSN Boys Team of the Month for December. Columbus ended up with 42% of the vote, while Seymour was second with 29%. A total of 1559 votes were cast for the five deserving nominees.



The Dons have been a solid program for a number of years, but it was hard to know what to expect this season following the loss of a 1st team and 2nd team all-conference selection from last year's squad. All they have done is race out to an 10-0 start, including a 6-0 record in the month of December. The month opened on the right note, as Columbus scored a 12-point win over defending conference champion Colby on the road on December 1st. The Dons also picked up wins over Spencer (7-1 on the year) and Neillsville (5-2 in the league).



Columbus has been led by three players who average in double figures:  Dodge Langreck (14 ppg), Tyler Mancl (13.6 ppg), and Travis Pischel (11.3 ppg).



The nominees for January Team of the Month will be announced at the end of the month. Keep an eye out for the list and remember to vote for who you feel is most deserving.
