BALDWIN, WI – Football is back! The Baldwin-Woodville Blackhawks (B-W) reported to practice on August 6 to prepare for the 2024 season. This year’s focus is on speed and athleticism as the team aims to build on recent success.

Coming off their second consecutive winning season, the Blackhawks achieved a 10-3 overall record and went 5-2 in Middle Border Conference (MBC) play in 2023. B-W also made it to Level 4 of the WIAA Division 4 Tournament for the first time since 2010.

This year brings a shift to the Middle Border Conference dynamic. Rice Lake, the defending MBC Champion and WIAA Division 3 State Champion, returns to the Big Rivers Conference after competing two seasons in the MBC. Meanwhile, Altoona joins the MBC after finishing in the middle of the Coulee Conference standings last season with a 3-4 conference record.
