Monroe’s upcoming schedule has been tweaked a bit. The team’s Jan. 16 game against Janesville Parker was moved up to 12:30 p.m. Originally, the Cheesemakers were scheduled for two games next week against Madison Edgewood (Jan. 18, Jan. 21), but the visiting Crusaders (4-6) have paused activity due to COVID-19 reasons. The Cheesemakers will instead host Stoughton Jan. 18, then have Monona Grove come to town Jan. 21. Neither team has played so far this season due to Dane County and school board COVID-19 restrictions.
