Fenwick stuns Hononegah in Brian Zimmerman's final game as head coach

ROCKTON ― Hononegah couldn't drum up enough firepower to compete with a fast and powerful Fenwick football team in Saturday's Class 6A playoff showdown, and Brian Zimmerman's final game as Hononegah's head coach did not end the way he had envisioned. "I probably won't really think about it until everything clears out a little bit, you know, but you don't ever really think about leaving this way," Zimmerman said just minutes after Fenwick ousted Hononegah, 38-13. "You know, it's tough, but I'm sure, come next summer, when camps kick in, it will be even tougher. I'll miss it. "This was such a great group to go out with, though." Zimmerman went 93-22 in his 12 seasons as Hononegah's head football coach, and his teams never missed the playoffs. And this year's squad had just one loss coming in ― a 27-26 last-minute loss to undefeated Harlem on Sept. 11, after Hononegah was up 19 points with 5:12 left. More Rockford-area football: Harlem is only NIC-10 football team to win on busy playoff Friday But Fenwick (8-3) blasted right into Hononegah (9-2) in the second-round matchup on Nov. 7, scoring just over 3 minutes into the game, and never letting up

Williams is a first-generation college student

WHITEWATER — Katie Williams, a special education major at the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater from Park Falls, is among more than 4,400 Warhawks who are first-generation college students on the Whitewater and Rock County campuses. First-generation college students - or students who are the first in their families to attend college - make up more than one-third of the undergraduate population at UW-Whitewater. Nearly two-thirds of students on the Rock County campus alone are first-generation. UW-Whitewater is proud to participate in the annual First-Generation College Celebration, a national effort led by First-Gen Forward. Held on Nov. 8, FGCC Day champions first-gen students' contributions to their communities and connects them to the resources they need for success. As part of the initiative, the university held a celebration on Nov. 5, at the University Center, the Whitewater campus's student union. A pop-up exhibit featuring photo portraits of first-generation Warhawk students, faculty, and staff is currently on display at Roberta's Art Gallery, and students at both campuses are enjoying free giveaways all week. Chancellor Corey A. King, one of several Warhawk faculty and staff members who are the first in their families to graduate from college, will be one of a handful of first-gen
