The Blair-Taylor boys basketball team won two more games to make it five in a row, but saw the winning streak come to an end on Friday. The Wildcats defeated Melrose-Mindoro, 66-57, on Thursday then blew away Independence/Gilmanton on Friday. In the team’s third game in as many days, it ran out of...
If you’re a top-10 team in college basketball, there aren’t many opponents you’d rather see less right about now than the Wisconsin Badgers. The Wisconsin men’s basketball team all but removed themselves from the NCAA Tournament bubble conversation (in a good way) with their best week of the season...
The Blair-Taylor boys basketball team looks to be hitting its stride with three straight wins last week. The Wildcats got a career night from senior CJ Dummer, who topped 1,000 career points as he scored 39 in a 10-point win over Alma Center Lincoln last Tuesday. On Thursday, the Wildcats bested...
The Blair-Taylor girls basketball team had a high and then a low as it split two games last week. The Wildcats reached a season-high with 88 points in a win over Alma Center Lincoln on Tuesday. That win clinched the Dairyland Conference Large Division Championship for the Wildcats. On Thursday,...
The Independence/Gilmanton boys basketball team caught fire as it picked up its first Dairyland Conference win of the season. The Indees made nearly half of their shots and scored a season-high 77 points in a road win against Alma/Pepin last Tuesday. The win put I/G at 2-18 on the season and 1-15...

Just like the first meeting against their archrival Arcadia, the Gale-Ettrick-Trempealeau boys basketball team got a win against the Raiders, but it most certainly did not come about easily. The Red Hawks (17-4, 7-2 Coulee) completed a regular-season sweep of Arcadia (6-15, 2-7) by holding them off...
The Whitehall girls basketball team appeared to be on the edge of winning three straight games, but a second half run by Melrose-Mindoro meant the team had to settle for a 2-1 mark last week.  The Norse picked up a pair of lopsided wins on Monday and Tuesday of last week. The team went on a 16-0...

The Whitehall boys basketball team began last week in a tie for first place in the Dairyland Conference-Large Division, but two losses made a conference title look unlikely. The first loss came against the team the Norse were tied with, defending DC-Large champions Osseo-Fairchild. The Thunder went...
The Independence/Gilmanton girls basketball team had little trouble in Buffalo County last week, winning two games by more than 20 points. The Indees went on a big run to close the first half of a 69-37 win over Pepin/Alma on Tuesday. On Thursday, the team came out of halftime on fire and pulled...

It’s been a season of smashing success for the Gale-Ettrick-Trempealeau/Melrose-Mindoro wrestling co-op. So, it should come as no surprise that the Titans are sending a cavalcade of wrestlers to the Kohl Center for the individual state tournament while simultaneously setting the stage for success...
