The Scott family suffered the loss of 3 children from an overnight fire last month. Now, the community is pulling together again to support the lone surviving child and his mother.
It is unimaginable to think about the heartbreak Deborah Scott experiences every day since three of her four children passed away after a fire swept through their home in November. Dayja Scott, 9; Daliya Scott, 8, died at the scene. Their brothers Michael Scott, 7, and Luther Scott, 5, were transported to Children’s Hospital in Milwaukee. Michael Scott passed away the following day, but Luther Scott was recently released from the hospital and is back with his mother. Mike Degarmo, a 13-year veteran of the Racine Fire Department is one of the organizers of the Scott Family Fundraiser on Friday. He told Patch that Luther's health continues to get better. "I know he is improving daily," Degarmo confirmed. Because many of the fire fighters, …

A brother of one of the girls also egged the two on during the fight.
A 14-year-old girl and a 17-year-old girl were arrested today for battery and disorderly conduct for fighting in a park. And they would have gotten away with it if someone wouldn't have posted a recording of the fight on YouTube. The two girls have not been officially been charged, but David Malison, an investigator with the Caledonia Police Department, said the case has been referred to the Racine County District Attorney’s Office for charges. The fight, which was recording and uploaded to YouTube, happened at 3:30 p.m. Saturday, March 26 at Franksville Park, 9614 Northwestern Ave. According to a report by the Caledonia Police Department, the 14-year-old girl had a scratch on her cheek and a large bump on her forehead, and the 17-year-old…

Logic scores 23 in the loss.
As an opposing coach, you never know who to key in on when going into a game against Pius XI. The Lady Popes seem to like assists just as much as points and that showed as five girls scored in double figures in their 70-61 win over Racine Case in the WIAA State Tournament Super Tuesday game at Wisconsin Lutheran College. “Our leading scorer averages 12 and the next person is 10,” Pius head coach Scott Herrick said. “It’s been a different person every game. That’s one thing about this team; they are so unselfish. I can’t get over how nobody cares who gets the press, who gets the points…they’re so happy when we win and that’s all that matters. “As long as they win they’re happy.” While five girls hit double digits for points, the most …
