MONROE - Reedsburg's triple-option offense offered some unique challenges in preparation, but the Monroe High School football team showed its offense isn't the only vaunted part of its team. Monroe senior Carter Sawdey had two interceptions, and the Cheesemakers forced three turnovers in bottling up the Beavers for a 21-0 win in a WIAA Division 3 first-round playoff game Friday night. "It's great," Sawdey said of winning the program's first playoff game since 2003.
