As the final group in the second pairing of teams approached the 18th green at a Division Two regional golf tournament at Skyline Golf Club in Black River Falls last Tuesday, most everyone watching knew what was on the line. None of Gale-Ettrick-Trempealeau’s golfers could do anything about it, as...
With the game circled on the calendar and an outright Coulee Conference championship on the line, the Gale-Ettrick-Trempealeau High School baseball team couldn’t slow down West Salem’s offense last Monday.

Both the Arcadia and Gale-Ettrick-Trempealeau High School golf teams played in a pair of invitational meets last week as they prepared for tournament play to start this week.

The lowest of lows so far this season was followed by the highest of highs for the Whitehall baseball team.
