Weston was the top team in Ridge and Valley Conference Baseball for much of this season and five players on the Silver Eagles roster earned All-Conference accolades for their efforts.

For more than 85 minutes last Saturday, third-seeded Sauk Prairie and 11^th-seeded Watertown battled to a scoreless tie in a WIAA Division 2 prep girls regional final soccer match.

But then junior defender Brooklyn Kaufman and junior midfielder Leah Allen hooked up for the play of the game.

It was a masterful pitching performance by two of the top hurlers in the Badger Small Conference.

But unlike the regular season matchup in league play, the rematch between the Sauk Prairie Eagles baseball team and host Reedsburg had a berth at sectionals at stake.

What a way for RAHS seniors Martin Lindholm and Makayla Mittlestaedt to close out their high school athletic careers, competing at the WIAA State Track and Field Meet, and that’s how it happened last weekend at UW-La Crosse.

Senior Westley Hatfield from River Valley High School got to close out his high school track and field career on the big stage of the WIAA State Meet at UW-La Crosse on Friday in D-2 competition.

One of these years.

That’s how Sauk Prairie golf standout Graysen Dunn must feel.

Dunn qualified for sectionals for a third straight year, only to see his dream of reaching the state tournament fall just short.

Reedsburg Beaver baseball celebrated a third straight outright conference championship recently, a feat that’s believed to have been done only once before in school history on the baseball diamond.

The best season in many years for the Reedsburg Beaver girls soccer program came to a close on Saturday with a loss in a Regional final in La Crosse but that came after a WIAA Tournament win over Baraboo three days earlier.

The Floggers team has the lead over C&C Masonry atop the team standings in the Monday Night Men’s Golf League at the Reedsburg Country Club heading into this week’s action.

Floggers team members include Pete Steinhauer, Dan Hillcoat, Dave Schoell and Don Webber.

The league season at RCC runs through Aug. 18.

Junior distance runner Clayton Lee has been in the business of breaking school records all season and the Ithaca/Weston did again, not once, but twice this weekend at the WIAA State Track and Field Meet at UW-La Crosse.
