Football: Red Hawks overcome slow start in 48-21 win against Watertown
WATERTOWN — While Milton saw itself down a touchdown on two separate occasions against Watetown, the Red Hawks were still able to battle their way to a win on Friday night. Some of Watertown’s conference games have gotten away from the Goslings pretty quickly this season. Others have been more competitive, at least for a while. Watertown put on an early show in their Homecoming game, but then the Red Hawks started stacking big plays and pulled away for a 48-21 Badger Large victory over the Goslings at Landsverk Field. Watertown (1-7, 0-6 in conference) used a pair of big plays to set up short fields in the first half. Sophomore quarterback Aiyden Parr-Mitchell connected with sophomore running back Kameron Zingler on a wheel route covering 68 yards on the opening drive, which senior receiver Alex David capped off by scoring from 5 yards out on a reverse. Senior kicker Colton Stai’s point after gave Watertown a 7-0 lead with 7 minutes, 17 seconds left in the first quarter. Milton (4-4, 4-2) pulled even on junior quarterback Brice Remington’s 10-yard touchdown pass to senior receiver Caden Pernot with 29 seconds left in the opening quarter. The Goslings answered on their

Sitkiewitz handily wins boys race as Fort claims Westby-Reed Invite title; Lakeside girls victorious
The boys competition at the Westby-Reed Invitational quickly turned into a two-horse race. By the end, Vinny Sitkiewitz was all alone, setting a blistering pace. Sitkiewitz, a senior for Fort Atkinson, won his home invitational in a personal-record time of 15 minutes, 37.3 seconds on Thursday at FAHS. “What stands out with Vinny is the way he won the race,” Fort Atkinson cross country coach Spencer Agnew said. “We talked about going out a little more conservative, but he got out fast which is impressive on our course. “We ran a flat course last week so for Vinny to go out even faster today impressive. Vinny looked strong, in control and dominant.” McFarland junior Willard Heitzman was within five seconds of Sitkiewitz at the mile mark and still within 20 seconds at the two-mile mark. By the time they crossed the finish line, Heitzman took second in 16:49.7, just ahead of senior teammate Blake Doolan (16:51.2).
