MONROE - Monday's snow, sleet and icy conditions wreaked havoc on school athletic schedules, as a slew of boys and girls basketball games were postponed.
The Monroe boys basketball team's non-conference game against Dodgeville was postponed. Monroe boys basketball coach Pat Murphy said the game will be made up, but there is not a date set yet.

Monroe will host New Glarus at 7:30 today.
"We knew we wanted to play some games over break because our next game is not until Jan. 7," Murphy said. "At least we will get one game in."
Several holiday boys basketball tournaments were pushed back to play today and Wednesday.

Cambridge will host Palmyra-Eagle in the other game at 8 p.m. The Mineral Point Holiday Tournament was postponed to today and Wednesday. Black Hawk will play Mineral Point at 7:30 p.m. today.
