Girls golf: Edgerton, Parkview battle the elements, advance to WIAA sectionals
JANESVILLE — It was a steady stream of rain for a majority of the day at Glen Erin Golf Course in Janesville on Thursday. Despite the precipitation, local golfers were able to sneak in nine holes of regional golf, as Edgerton, Beloit Turner and Parkview each were able to punch their ticket into the WIAA sectionals. The Crimson Tide, fresh off of winning the 2026 Rock Valley Conference title, battled the weather en route to a nine-hole team score of 170 to emerge as regional champions. Even more impressively, the Tiders did it with only four women in the lineup rather than the usual five. Caroline Johnson, who usually slots into Edgerton’s No. 5 spot in the lineup, was involved in a car accident on Tuesday, leading to the junior being scratched from playing on Thursday. “We’ve had a tough week this week,” Edgerton head coach Alex Schaar said. “It’s been an emotional week for us, but I think we’ve shifted gears now as a team. “It’s not so much about getting to state anymore as it is doing it for Caroline.” Down a player in their lineup and battling a heavy downpour on the course, Edgerton never broke stride

Janesville church producing film that challenges long-held views of the city's Fourth Ward
Good Morning, Rock County! Here are your Monday headlines. Janesville's First Congregational Church is producing a short film it plans to screen later this year that's set in the city's Old Fourth Ward. The film, titled "Dec. 22," takes a hard look at long-held prejudices about the Fourth Ward. Ultimately, the church says, the goal is to let the neighborhood define itself by telling its own story. The Gazette files a lot of open records requests with local governments to learn details about the public's business that sometimes aren't readily available. This week, we're seeking information on how the Janesville School District noticed school board meeting closed sessions during a months long superintendent hiring process that the board kept largely behind closed doors. The Gazette is not questioning the outcome of the hiring. We do seek to learn more about the public process the board used. Keep an eye out as we give you more information this week on how you can watch a live stream of The Gazette's town hall that's set for 6:30 p.m. Wednesday night on the GM-JATCO site ballot referendum.
