When Paul Anderson was coaching the freshman football team at Gale-Ettrick-Trempealeau High School back in 2019, he could tell that he had future varsity playmakers on his team.

But the Red Hawks rebounded and looked in prime form against Black River Falls at home on Tuesday, sweeping...
The Independence/Gilmanton football team couldn’t get anything going offensively in a 14-8 road loss to Melrose-Mindoro on Friday night. The Indees managed just 55 yards — their only score came on a kick return — as the Mustangs scored twice in the third quarter and that was enough for the win. The...
