A new era for Reedsburg Beaver football is underway this fall as the Beavers will operate without Brian Pottinger as head coach for the first time since 2006.

It’s only a five-week competition season this fall for the Beaver boys soccer squad but none the less, they are more than ready to hit the field this week as regular season play begins 3 weeks late due to COVID 19 and mandates from the WIAA.
The Golf Coaches Association of Wisconsin (GCAW), which honors the academic achievements of our student athletes every year, modified its system this year due to COVID-19.

The last of the RAHS fall sports teams that had yet to begin the 2020 season did so on Monday of this week as football, boys soccer and girls volleyball squads started with pre-season work after weeks of anticipation.
Those sports were deemed high risk by the WIAA so they had to wait until this week to kick off the pre-season.
The fall sports season began this week at Weston High School as the girls volleyball team got underway with pre-season practices in preparation for next week’s regular season openers.
After close to three weeks of training, the Beavers boys cross country competed in its first meet of the season last week vs. Portage in a dual meet at Wyona Park in Wyocena.
Portage won the dual, scoring 23 team points compared to 33 for Reedsburg but the Beavers had some highlight performances.
The Reedsburg Beavers high school girls tennis team entered this week with a winning record in dual match competition this season after downing Sparta, 5-2 on the road last Thursday. Reedsburg has won both road duals this year with victories over Baraboo, 6-1, and now the Sparta triumph.

The Reedsburg Beaver girls golf team has split its first two dual meets of the season after dropping a narrow decision at the Reedsburg Country Club vs. Wisconsin Dells last week. Dells played well and scored a 196 as a team in the nine-hole event while the Beavers struggled a bit and shot 198, two strokes behind the Lady Chiefs.
Years from now, Sauk Prairie cross country coach Andy Sherman probably won’t remember the final results of the Eagles’ dual meet with Waunakee on Sept. 3.
What Sherman will remember is after a lengthy hiatus from sports, the Eagles were competing again. And that alone was glorious.
Sauk Prairie’s girls tennis team hosted its first match of the year on Aug. 31.
And the Eagles put on a show for the home crowd.
Sauk Prairie rolled past Baraboo, 7-0, winning six of the seven matches in straight sets.
