Carroll University – Saturday, July 30-Sunday, July 31, 2022
Summer is nearly over and that means it’s off to the Special Olympics Wisconsin 2022 State Celebration Sports Tournament at Carroll University and nearby sites in Waukesha. Competition for bocce, track, swim, and softball will be held on Saturday, July 30-Sunday, July 31, 2022 . Remember that a light rain will NOT cancel the tournament. If the tournament is cancelled, we will have the information on the hotline 414-327-1016. Bocce and track are on campus; softball is at Saratoga; swimming is at Waukesha South High School.
We will NOT have a bus this year – please plan your ride and be aware of travel/parking time needed. Bocce and softball teams play on both days, and almost all track and swim athletes also compete on both days; schedule information is included with this information. You may leave the site after you are done competing, make sure you tell your coach that you are leaving.
As a COVID note = masks will be required in buildings. Lots of Healthy Athletes programs going on – check out the SOWI website for information.
We will be taking one softball team, 1 bocce team, 10 swim athletes and 9 track athletes, along with chaperons.

Congratulations to all athletes who competed at the April District Swim or the May Regional Athletic competitions. Everyone did their best effort and we were proud of all.
The delay in sending out results has been predominantly based on the fact that we wanted to be able to report on who is advancing to the State Celebration Games on July 30-31st in Waukesha at Carroll University. (Tennis, bocce and softball state games are the same weekend)
With the quota system, we are generally unable to have all that qualified advance to state; we are limited in the quota number that we receive. Sometimes we can request – and get – additional quota, sometimes not. And that’s what happened this year. We received extra space for swim, but not for track. The names listed below are advancing to the state games and will continue to attend the practice sessions thru the end of July. The athletes who competed, but for whom we are unable to take to state, should choose their preferred summer sport = some do bocce, some do softball, and maybe even tennis.
Swim – the athletes who are entered for the State Celebration Games are: John Avery; Lynn Carus; Yan Chen; Christine Cherne; Cooper Collins; Brian Glenn; Carrie Krutina; Melissa Krutina; Jacob Nowak; Jennifer Onufrock; and Kim Raatz.
Athletics/track – the athletes who are entered for the State Celebration Games are: Michelle Buchanan; Tim Canaday; Creed Grams; Cathy Hanin; Matthew Hanrahan; Michael Lunz; Jeff Strelow; and Tim Vola.
Info (schedule, etc) will be distributed after we receive it – probably not much before a week before the games.
Congrats to all!
