Platteville High School was the site for Thursday’s SWC Cross Country Meet and for at least two River Valley runners, it was a day of recognition with Mollie Maes and Nathan Hamilton earning All-Conference honors for their efforts.
Before week eight of the high school football season, the River Valley Blackhawks sat alone atop the SWC football standings with a 5-0 conference record and a 6-1 overall mark, riding a six-game win streak and the vibes around the program were strong and the confidence was certainly at a high level.

The vibes are good right now with the River Valley Blackhawks on the volleyball court as R-V enters the post-season riding a three-match win streak, which included impressive wins last week against Richland Center and Dodgeville, both 3-0 sweeps.
Since Sept. 11, the River Valley Blackhawks have lost only one of 14 matches on the soccer pitch, an incredible stretch to end the season and that success rate continued this past week with a tie and a win in the final two conference matches of the season.
Reedsburg will take some momentum into the post-season on the volleyball court after the Beavers traveled to Monona Grove on Tuesday last week and swept the Silver Eagles as part of the Badger Challenge in the final regular season match of the season.
Reedsburg made its final home match of the high school boys soccer season a memorable one with a 1-0 victory at RAHS on Thursday in non-conference play against La Crosse Logan.
The final meet of the regular season for the Reedsburg Beaver cross country runners was Saturday at Lake Wisconsin, the site of this year’s Badger Small Meet.
In pretty much every game this year, the Beavers ground game has produced explosive type plays offensively, a big reason why they’ve gone over 400 yards rushing multiple times and have topped 30 points in seven of nine games so far.
