The Little Chute football team got a rare opportunity Friday night to do something that not a lot of other teams in the state were able to — play its season finale.

Kaukauna’s Bailey Bidwell, Ava Bloch and Ronnie Isselmann were all named academic all-state last month by the Golf Coaches Association of Wisconsin.

The Cheesehead Wrestling Tournament in Kaukauna, unfortunately, has now been officially cancelled for 2021.

All 10 Fox Valley Association schools will participate in 2020-21 winter sports with strict safety protocols in place across the conference.

The Little Chute football team prepared all week for a matchup with North Eastern Conference foe Denmark in the first of what would be a two-game postseason that would crown a “regional champion.”

After finishing second at conference and advancing through sectionals to the WIAA 2020 State Girls Swimming & Diving Championships, Kaukauna senior diver Emily Clark grabbed a 13^th-place finish Saturday at the Waukesha South Natatorium, ending her day with a score of 353.35.

The Kaukauna football team found out Tuesday, just days after a remarkable comeback win on the road at Germantown and three days before the Ghosts’ scheduled matchup with Cedarburg in the first game of what was to be a two-game postseason, that due to COVID-19 complications, its season was coming to an abrupt end.

NEW LONDON — What a difference a week makes.

Two Thursdays ago, just about 24 hours before a road game at North Eastern Conference foe Luxemburg-Casco, the Little Chute football team found out it would be travelling without a large chunk of its coaching staff, including Head Coach Ted Evers, and the turmoil showed in a 28-0 loss.

Four members of the Little Chute varsity girs’ golf squad, as well as the entire starting varsity team for Kimberly, were all named as Academic All-State honorees for the 2020 season by the Golf Coaches Association of Wisconsin.

The honorees for Little Chute include Lexie Roth, Karsen Hammen, Kayla Hansen and Elena Bauer.

GERMANTOWN – It all looked bleak for Kaukauna.

Its outstanding defense, which had allowed 33 points in five games, was gashed by three long runs. Its offense turned the ball over four times. Its punt team allowed a touchdown.
