The 133rd meeting all-time in high school football between Reedsburg and Baraboo last week will go down as one that won’t be remembered fondly for those associated with Reedsburg Beaver football.
Eagles aim for first trip to state since ‘96
It’s been 24 years since Sauk Prairie’s boys soccer team reached the state tournament.
But perhaps this will be the year the Eagles’ drought ends.
The season ended for Sauk Prairie’s girls tennis team on Oct. 7.
But those that reached the WIAA Division 1 Oconomowoc Sectional showed grit, determination and in some cases, remarkable promise for the future.
Sauk Prairie’s girls volleyball team had one of its toughest weeks of the season. And the Eagles came out of it a perfect 4-0 believing anything and everything is possible this season.
The end result wasn’t what they were hoping for.
But there was improvement, and these days, that’s something for Sauk Prairie’s football team.
Host Watertown toppled Sauk Prairie, 43-16, last Friday. The Eagles fell to 0-3 on the young season.
The WIAA Division 1 cross country subsectionals are on Oct. 20. Sectionals will be held Oct. 24.
And it certainly appears that Sauk Prairie is ready.
The Eagles’ boys won the thrilling Baraboo Triangular on Oct. 16. Sauk Prairie finished with 30 points to edge Watertown (31) and host Baraboo (72).
It had been two weeks since Sauk Prairie’s girls swimming team had a meet.
So when the Eagles got back in the pool on Oct. 6, they were ready to roll.
Sauk Prairie won every event and had the top two finishers in 10 of 11 competitions and defeated River Valley/Richland Center, 134-31.
