2ND HALF STAMPEDE: Mondovi scores 35 points in last two quarters, advances to state finals

WAUPACA — Cameron Gruber sprinted onto the field first, pumping his arms and firing up the Mondovi crowd before the start of the second half. Gruber couldn’t wait for play to resume. And he showed precisely why. Gruber scored three of his five touchdowns in the third quarter, including an incredible 30-yard TD catch on a fourth and 23 pass from quarterback Bode Falkner. Gruber's array of spectacular plays sparked Mondovi to a 56-27 Division 6 state semifinal football win over Kenosha St. Joseph on Friday night at Comet Field. "I came in here focused and ready to go," Gruber said. "I gave it my all for my teammates. It was 21-21 at the half, but we knew we could do this. I was determined to go out there and have some fun. Everyone stepped up. "This is an awesome feeling to win this. It was a total team effort." The Buffaloes advance to their third state championship game after runner-up finishes in 1990 and 2022. Mondovi (12-1) advances to face Lomira in the state championship game at 1 p.m. Thursday at Camp Randall Stadium in Madison. "It was an incredible performance by our kids," Buffaloes coach Craig Loscheider said.

Darlington pulls away in second half, ends Amherst's unbeaten season

Amherst's historic season came to an end Friday night as Darlington pulled away in the second half for a 32-21 victory in a WIAA Division 5 state semifinal game. The Falcons entered the matchup at Horicon High School unbeaten at 11-0, but couldn't keep pace with the Redbirds after halftime as Darlington scored on each of its first three second-half possessions. Amherst initially looked poised to keep its season alive. Amherst, Darlington game preview: Amherst football embraces challenge vs Darlington: 'We're not surprised' Amherst senior Ayden Nerdahl opened the scoring with a 40-yard touchdown run, giving the Falcons an early edge. The Falcons also showed some aggressiveness on fourth down, converting multiple attempts to sustain drives. Darlington answered with a two-play, 75-yard scoring drive to make it 7-6 after missing the extra point. Then Falcons senior Tyler Loken broke through for an 18-yard touchdown run, extending Amherst's advantage to 14-6. But Darlington continued to find success offensively. The Redbirds converted a third-and-12 with a deep pass before putting together another scoring drive. That helped Darlington cut the deficit to 14-12 before halftime, setting the stage for its second half explosion. Second half surge Darlington took its first lead on the

Amherst football embraces challenge vs Darlington: 'We're not surprised'

AMHERST – Amherst has spent the 2026 season knocking off all challengers in its unbeaten campaign and building toward this moment. But to keep its undefeated run alive, the Falcons will have to solve a Darlington team that hasn't lost in 26 games and brings one of the state's most explosive offenses into Friday's Level 3 playoff matchup. The mission is complicatedly simple. “We've got to somehow slow them down. That's the biggest thing,” Amherst coach Mark Lusic said. “They have a very explosive offense. I mean, I don't think they've been challenged all year. I don't know, probably for the last two years to be honest with you. "We're going to have to slow down their option. That's the biggest thing. If you don't slow that down, it's going to be a long night. That means they can do anything they want. It's about 50% of their offense. So, try to slow that down, and then go from there." Lusic knows the Level 4 matchup between the Falcons and the Redbirds will be decided up front at the line of scrimmage. He expects a physical Redbird defensive line, and has preached their need to match it. “They want to

Wisconsin Rapids clerk devoted her life to running elections. She died on Election Day.

Votebeat is a nonprofit news organization reporting on voting access and election administration across the U.S. Sign up for Votebeat Wisconsin’s free newsletter here . On the evening before Election Day, Wisconsin Rapids City Clerk Jennifer Gossick came home from work and told her husband, Lee, that everything was set for the election. For weeks, she had scrupulously overseen the city’s many election tasks, from recruiting poll workers to managing early voting, accounting for all eventualities. But even as she prepared for Election Day, Gossick was dying of cancer she didn’t know she had. Her failing health was clear to those closest to her: She would tire after taking several steps, having to sit and bend at the waist just to get a clear breath. But Gossick wouldn’t consider — or even discuss — her health until the November election was done, she told her husband. She collapsed the morning of Election Day at her home. She died that afternoon at a local hospital. “She worked every day up until the election to make sure they would run meticulously, and then her body gave out,” Wisconsin Rapids Mayor Matt Zacher said, calling it a “dedication to the integrity of elections

Stevens Point's Kennedy Konkol brings 'fresh energy' to SPASH hoops

STEVENS POINT – A 17-point-per-game freshman season gave Kennedy Konkol a strong start to her high school basketball career and Division 1 aspirations. Her next chapter begins at Stevens Point, where she's looking to grow alongside a new group of standout teammates in University of Iowa commit Jada Seubert and rising Leah Awe, under former WNBA No. 1 pick, SPASH coach Janel McCarville. Konkol, a 2025 first team all-conference selection in the Wisconsin Valley Conference, said while she will miss Wisconsin Rapids Lincoln and her teammates, that was the entire point of the move. As the season inches closer to its inception, Konkol feels she is adjusting well to the switch and seeing how her goals both big and small lie ahead. “I was very nervous at first, to be honest, but now that I've kind of been here for a little bit and made some friends and had open gyms, it's been a lot better,” Konkol said. “I feel pretty good. I really like how the atmosphere is and the players that I'm with. I feel like it's very energetic and welcoming. I feel like I can push myself.” Amherst embraces challenge Vs Redbirds: Amherst football embraces challenge vs

Richmond Street bridge over I-41 to reopen soon, here's what we know

Drivers in the Fox Cities once again have full access to Appleton and Grand Chute via the Richmond Street/State 47 exit from Interstate 41. While the exit's on- and off-ramps opened in late October , commuters have awaited the completion of the overpass itself, making detours via Meade and Gillett streets to simply cross the interstate – or detours to Ballard Road or Northland Avenue, depending on where you needed to get via the interstate – a thing of the past. The bridge was closed and demolished in May as part of the ongoing I-41 project , which runs through 2030 and will reconstruct 23 miles of the interstate between Grand Chute and De Pere from four lanes to six and reconstruct a number of overpasses and underpasses to make room for the expansion, in addition to other improvements. The Wisconsin Department of Transportation in a Nov. 13 email to residents announced the bridge would reopen early in the week of Nov. 16. Richmond Street's new interchange looks different, what happened? Richmond is the third of three Appleton-area exits to be transformed from a traditional interchange into a diverging diamond as part of this project, behind Northland Avenue and Ballard
