Thursday night, he reached a personal milestone.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tKiewiet recorded his 100th career victory when the Bucks beat Eau Claire, 5-4, on the road. His overall record now stands at 100-63, following the win over the Express. &nbsp; &nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tKiewiet has been with the Bucks since 2008. He was a Waterloo coach for four years before being named the team&#039;s ninth manager prior to the 2012 season. Kiewiet becomes the third skipper to win at least 100 games with the club, joining Eric Snider and Darrell Handelsman.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tSnider is Waterloo&#039;s all-time winningest manager, compiling a 161-86 record while guiding the Bucks from their inaugural 1995 campaign through 1998. Handelsman replaced Snider and managed the club to a 160-108 mark from 1999 to 2002.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tKiewiet is the 18th manager to record triple-digit career wins in the Northwoods League and currently ranks 18th in all-time league victories. He will move into a 17th-place tie on the managerial list with Waterloo&#039;s next win.&nbsp;Kiewiet is eight victories away from becoming the 14th winningest field manager in Northwoods League history.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tKiewiet&#039;s milestone victory at Eau Claire Thursday came on a night when the Bucks extended their winning streak to a season-high six games. Waterloo is 15-9 overall and is currently in third-place in the North Division standings, 2 1\/2 games out of first-place.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tKiewiet earned NWL Manager-of-the-Year honors in 2013 after guiding the Bucks to a league-record 51 regular-season victories. Waterloo won both half-season titles in the North Division last season and made its first playoff appearance since 2002.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe Bucks open a four-game home stand at 7:05 tonight, hosting the Duluth Huskies at Riverfront Stadium in Waterloo.&nbsp; For more information, call the Bucks&rsquo; Ticket Line at (319) 232-5633.&nbsp; All 72 games may be heard on 1330 AM ESPN (KWLO).&nbsp; Fans are encouraged to stay in touch with the Bucks during the season by utilizing their website at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.waterloobucks.com\/\">www.waterloobucks.com<\/a>.\n<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">\n\t# # #\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<em>The Waterloo Bucks are a member of the finest developmental league for elite college baseball players, the Northwoods League.
