Last week began with a tough loss to swallow for the Weston Silver Eagle baseball squad in a 4-3 loss to Seneca Monday in Caz. Some misplays and mistakes helped Seneca jump out to a 4-0 lead by the middle of the game, but Weston rallied to within a run and had the bases loaded in the last of the seventh when the final out was recorded.

It may have been the best win of the year so far for the River Valley Blackhawks on the softball diamond last week on April 20 as R-V took down a traditional contender from Badger Small, Mount Horeb, by a score of 7-5.

Not only have the state-ranked River Valley Blackhawks girls soccer team yet to suffer a defeat this season, they haven’t even allowed a goal as the 5-0 Blackhawks kept the shutout streak alive this past week with a 1-0 win over Platteville and a 6-0 win over Galena, Illinois, both conference victories as well.

Ithaca/Weston Softball has found its way into the D-5 state-wide rankings and it’s easy to see why as I/W has yet to taste defeat this season as we get close to the month of May.

A busy week began Tuesday last week for the Ithaca/Weston track and field program at the Lee Griffin Invite at Kickapoo High School. I/W placed sixth among 15 schools in the final boys team standings with Clayton Lee once again leading the way with a title in the 1600 at 4:40.57 while also placing third in the 3200 on Tuesday.

Reedsburg earned a second win in this high school girls soccer season on Friday, edging Portage/Poynette 5-4 in Badger Small action at RAHS.

Reedsburg closed out this past week with some of its best golf of the season so far as the Beavers wrapped up a busy week on the links.

There is only one team that remains unbeaten in Badger Small baseball this spring and that is the Reedsburg Beavers who improved to 5-0 in league play with a pair of lopsided wins over the Portage Warriors this past week.

It was an important week for Reedsburg Beaver softball with three conference games, and the Beavers did gain a much-needed win over Sauk-Prairie but fell in contests against Fort Atkinson and Stoughton.
