After a slow start the Whitehall football team got its ground game going in the second quarter pounding past Eleva-Strum, 20-8, on Friday. The home win included 214 rushing yards for the Norse, with two players gaining more than 90, as they held the Cardinals to just 28 yards rushing and 97 yards...
A 13-0 halftime deficit that remained a 19-8 hole early in the fourth quarter did not phase the Blair-Taylor football team, who came back for a dramatic road win Friday against Pepin/Alma. Wildcat quarterback Cain Fremstad led the effort with a score through the air and on the ground, pulling B-T...
The Whitehall volleyball team continued to roll last week, winning two more matches in three sets.

The Whitehall boys cross country team finished second in the Dairyland Conference championship meet, hosted by Melrose-Mindoro last week Monday. The meet was the first that included all of the DC schools as all previous meets had split the schools up. Whitehall had won almost all of its previous...

The Raiders had been off since right after the season started due to a COVID-19 outbreak in the school district. Their first match in 19 days proved to be a tough one as...
After a five-set loss on Tuesday, the Independence volleyball team rebounded with a sweep on Thursday to split two road matches.
