GRUNDY CENTER – Team rankings often go out the window when local rivals go head to head, and so it was when the Class A No. 3 AGWSR Cougars paid a visit to Spartan Stadium to face unranked Grundy Center Friday night. The Spartans made a statement early, scoring first and keeping it close in the first half of play, as AGWSR held a slight 20-14 halftime lead. The Cougars regrouped to dominate the second half, holding the Spartans to just one more score while an unstoppable ground game helped them find the end zone four more times to earn a 46-21 win in the Class A District 4 opener.

    GRUNDY CENTER — Is there adequate security at the Grundy County Courthouse? That was the question facing the Board of Supervisors Monday as it reviewed security procedures.
    The review comes after an incident at the Jackson County Courthouse in Maquoketa last week, where a former city manager pulled a gun and had to be tackled by a County Supervisor before the man turned the gun on himself and took his own life.
