Was Senior Cross Dressing Offensive?: Hitting The Trails..

The Middleton Common Council on
June 3 discussed proposed storm water

drainage improvements for Middleton
High School.
According to a document prepared
by Nahn and Associates, a local firm
that helps municipalities, developers,
and industries with water resource is-
sues, the Park, Recreation and Forestry
Commission wishes to improve
drainage problems at Middleton High
by installing approximately 300 linear
feet of 12-inch storm sewer pipe along
the west building edge in a southwest
direction and tying into the North Av-
enue 18-inch storm sewer system.
After a west building expansion to
Middleton High School was con-
structed adjacent to Firemans Park
north of North Avenue in 2003, two 12-
inch concrete storm sewer pipes were

Was senior
cross dressing
offensive?
Middleton High School seniors have
organized dress-up days to celebrate
their last week of regular classes. It has
been tradition for several years.
Dress-up themes have included sen-
ior citizen day, beach attire, and gender
swap. Though cross-dressing has been
done years before, the district adminis-
tration this year told students it was in-
appropriate. Many seniors participated
anyway and some were forced to
change. Community members, includ-
ing LGBT advocates, have had mixed
messages on the dress-up theme.
The idea was for students to dress
up in clothes usually reserved for peo-

Same-sex couples line up to get married
Sixty one same-sex couples were is-
sued marriage licenses by the Dane
County Clerks office Friday after fed-
eral judge Barbara Crabb overturned
Wisconsins ban on same-sex mar-
riage.
Crabb reiterated her ruling the fol-
lowing Monday, when she declined to
stay her decision.
Allowing all loving couples to
marry in Wisconsin is long overdue.
To be County Clerk when the federal
ruling came down that allowed me to
open my office doors to issue marriage
licenses to all loving couples, including
same-sex couples, is a great honor,
Dane County clerk Scott McDonell
said. My thanks to the judges, court
commissioners, volunteers and county
employees who gave their time to
make sure that couples who wanted to
get a license were able to do so. His-
tory was made in Dane County today.
Advanced planning and preparation
facilitated the process as the couples
lined up outside the clerks office, went
through six stations, and were issued
their licenses. Most couples chose to be
married immediately and judges and
commissioners who had volunteered to
be on call performed ceremonies, many
of them on the City County Building
steps.
A celebratory crowd gathered, with
people handing out flowers, musicians
performing after vows were taken and
several Madison Police officers provid-
ing wedding cakes for a colleague and
all the other couples.
Dane County executive Joe Parisi
called Crabbs decision a victory for
fairness and equality in the state of
Wisconsin.
As someone who fought against the
constitutional amendment banning
same-sex marriage while serving in the
legislature, I am thrilled that it has been
overturned in the name of fairness. I
fully support the right of same-sex cou-
ples to marry, said Parisi.
Not everyone saw the courts deci-
sion as a victory. Attorney General J.B.
Van Hollen issued a statement calling
Crabbs U.S. District Court ruling in
the matter of Wolf, et al. v. Walker a
setback. He also filed an emergency
motion in an attempt to block same-sex
marriages as couples lined up to get
them.
As attorney general, I have an ob-
ligation to uphold Wisconsin law and
our Constitution, said Van Hollen.
While [the] decision is a setback, we
will continue to defend the constitu-
tionality of our traditional marriage
laws and the constitutional amend-
ment, which was overwhelmingly ap-
proved by voters. I will appeal.
Importantly, current law remains in
force, Van Hollen argued. I am en-
couraged by the District Courts refusal
to issue an immediate injunction. We
have seen the disruption to couples and
families throughout the United States
when courts have first allowed same-
sex marriage only to have those mar-
riages subsequently called into
question by another court. I anticipate
the United States Supreme Court will
give finality to this issue in their next
term.
Parisi took issue with Van Hollens
attempt to block the ruling.
Id much rather have our states at-
torney general fighting crime than
fighting families, said Parisi. His ap-
peal of this case is a colossal waste of
taxpayer dollars and I urge him to re-
consider.
Our states resources would be
much better spent reducing the very
real problems of opiate addition, child
abuse, or gang violence just to name
a few, Parisi said.
U.S. Rep. Mark Pocan (WI-02), a
co-chair of the LGBT Equality Caucus,
called the decision another step to-
ward ensuring full equality for every
American.
It is clear the growing momentum
of support for marriage equality will
put an end to discriminatory laws that
treat LGBT couples as second-class
citizens, said Pocan. In ruling after
ruling, it has become unmistakable that
the promise of America is everyone
should be treated equally and with dig-
nity. [The] ruling brings us one step
closer to fulfilling that promise.
Pocan also weighed in on Van
Hollens decision to appeal the ruling.
The Attorney Generals decision to
appeal the ruling that struck down Wis-
consins ban on same-sex marriage is a
regressive and blatantly political at-
tempt to revive a hateful and discrimi-
natory law which violates the ideals of
liberty and equality in our Constitution.
Society has changed, barriers to equal-
ity continue to be broken down; it's too
bad our Attorney General is still living
in a more hateful day," said Pocan.
A longtime advocate for the rights of
the LGBT community, Pocan has been
married to his husband, Phil, since
2006.

Judges ruling appears to allow gay marriage, but the fight is far from over
To treat or
not to treat?
To Treat or Not To Treat? That may
be the very question you are asking
yourself now with the announcement
of finding the Emerald Ash Borer
(EAB) in Middleton. To help you with
this decision ask the following ques-
tions:
How many ash trees do I have on
my property? How many do my neigh-
bors have?
Is the tree healthy? Is it structurally
sound?
Imagine the area without the tree(s).
What would it look like? Is that accept-
able to you?
What does the current tree offer you
as a homeowner? (shade, cooling ef-
fects, screening, wildlife, etc.)
How would the loss of your tree(s)
affect your home? (aesthetically and fi-
nancially)
Do you have space to plant another
tree or is there only room for the cur-
rent one?
Can you afford removal costs? Are
you prepared to treat every year or two
for the foreseeable future?
If you have room on your property
consider planting a new tree now.
Then any treatments done will have a
definitive end date when your new tree
can take over for the ash. Pay atten-
tion to what kind of tree you do plant;
diversity is best and there are many,
many wonderful trees to pick from.
Treatment Options
Chemical treatments fall into two
categories: the method called root
drench which is mixing the chemical
with water and pouring the solution
around the base of the tree; and direct
injection which is the injection of a
chemical into the base of the tree (sim-
ilar to treatments made now for Dutch
elm disease and oak wilt).
The root drench method is relatively
inexpensive, can be administered by a
homeowner but has to be done every
year, and is best used for small diame-
ter trees (8-10 maximum in the opin-

Dan Johnson has contributed
much to the Middleton and sur-
rounding community with his work
as Middleton Outreach Ministry
(MOM) garden manager and else-
where in the community. Dan led a
group to start the garden. The gar-
den is now in its fifth year where
clients can grow their own food and
give any excess to the MOM food
panty. Over these years the number
of gardeners has grown. This year
the number of gardeners is up to 26
plus there are 15 mentors available
for them.
Additionally Dan with a small
group of friends rounded up nearly
34,000 pounds of food in 20012, the
challenging, dry summer. In 2013 as
part of the Madison Area Food
Pantry Gardens, they rescued and
harvested over 100,000 pounds of
food, with the food going to Second
Harvest Food Bank, Community Ac-
tion Coalition (CAC), MOM and the
Goodman Center.
Dan is also part of the Green
Team installing lawn and landscap-
ing at the new homes for Habitat for
Humanity of Dane County.
Dan received the Service to
Mankind award from Middleton

How are farmers using science
and technology to grow healthier
food? Whats the impact on our
food, animal care and the environ-
ment? The Wisconsin Association of
Agricultural Educators attending
their state Professional Development
Conference in Middleton will get
those questions answered on Mon-
day, June 16. Greg Sambs of Fort
Atkinson, Wis., will address the
group at 9:00 a.m. at the Marriott
Madison West located at 1313 John
Q Hammons Dr. in Middleton.
Titled Modern Animal Agricul-
ture & Pork Production the speech
by Sambs will highlight how ongo-
ing advancements in agricultural sci-
ence are helping farmers raise better
food while using fewer natural re-
sources than ever before. Farmers
who raise pigs have been able to
make great progress in animal
health, food safety and protecting the
environment, said Sambs. And
farmers know they must always keep
learning and working to get better at
what they do. Farmers now use 41-
percent less water and 78-percent
less land to raise pigs than they did
50 years ago.
Modern barns, a focus on nutri-
tion and animal care mean pigs live
healthier lives than ever before,
said Sambs. And, healthy pigs
mean healthy food. For example,
pork tenderloin today is as lean as a
skinless chicken breast and is certi-
fied by the American Heart Associa-
tion as a heart-healthy food. Id like
to thank the Wisconsin Association
of Agricultural Educators for giving
me an opportunity to share the sci-
ence behind what farmers are doing
to raise safe and healthy food, and
protect our environment for future
generations.
Wisconsins pork industry gener-
ates a total economic impact of
nearly $200 million each year and
supports 5,000 direct and indirect
jobs.

Twice each summer Steve Acker re-
turns to the city of his upbringing, cart-
ing a bit of the farm with him to
downtown Middleton. Acker sets up
his Born of a Barn furniture shop at the
corner of Parmenter Street and Terrace
Avenue, on the lawn of the house he
grew up in.
After losing his job in 2004, Acker
began assisting his brothers business,
taking down barns in southern Wiscon-
sin. Acker, a self-proclaimed treasure
hound from a kid, who never throws
anything away, thought about what he
could do with the barn scraps and bro-
ken pieces. His imagination led him
from smallish items like birdhouses,
board games and plant stands, to trac-
tor seat stools, benches, tables, shelv-
ing, and chests. What began as a fun
experiment became a full-fledged busi-
ness in 2008.
Although he enjoys being his own
boss with all that entails, its the cre-
ative outlet and recycling that Acker
finds particularly satisfying. All sorts
of wooden parts of a deconstructed
barn can be turned into something use-
ful, Acker said. For example, pegs used
to hold the barn together now serve to
hang coats on a rack made of planks
and beams.
I always think of a new use, new
life, for something, rather than dis-
carding it, he said. Hes reclaimed
wood from dozens and dozens of
barns in the past decade to create over
100 pieces.
Since farmers utilized whatever
wood happened to be on their land,
barns could be built with multiple types
of wood.
Most [wood] in southern Wiscon-
sin is soft, Douglas fir and pine, but oc-
casionally well get oak and walnut,
Acker explained.
His favorite pieces have incorpo-
rated other items into the woodwork-
ing, such as hanging antique cookie
cutters on a bakers shelf, and inlaying
19
th
century cast iron stove top and
floor heating grates on tables.
I call them great grate tables,
Acker quipped. Its a really neat way
to recycle.
Others obviously think so too
Acker sells his inlaid cast iron tables
immediately, he said. He also often
custom-designs, based on customers
space and need specifications, some-
times using customers provided pieces
to enhance. One woman recently asked
Acker to create a dining room table
featuring her grating, which she in-
tends to use as a centerpiece trivet.
Acker said he frequents flea markets
searching for antiques to repurpose,
such as the tractor seats and grates, as
well as pitchforks, other old tools and
saws, and sewing machines. For the
latter, Acker salvages the cast iron
stand and outfits it with a tabletop.
Without any formal training in
woodworking, Acker creates rustic,
simple pieces that he can build
quickly, he said. Musing aloud over
whether Middleton High School still
offers shop, Acker said the MHS
classes he took over three decades ago
have served him well.
I took shop and art, 3-D, wood,
metals, all of it, he said. And when
we were kids, we were always building
things.
Acker said his pieces are priced rea-
sonably, ranging from $15 for a bird-
house to $175 for an inlaid coffee table
to several hundred for larger items.
Although most of his customers are
private citizens, Acker has worked with
local businesses, notably creating the
tables and benches for a restaurant as
well as dozens of tabletops for a hospi-
tal in Watertown, he said.
Acker holds only a few sales each
year.
After each one I get a barrage of
special orders, and that keeps me busy
until the next sale, he said. I hardly
have time to create my own inventory.
There is one person he believes de-
serves honorable mention: his treasure-
hunting partner.
Im not getting rich doing this, he
observed. The only reason Im able to
do it is my wife, Amondee. Shes sup-
ported me, does the bookwork and
website, and has a fulltime job.

Old barn wood finds new life

Steve Acker, above, uses reclaimed barn wood to create unique furniture. His Born of a Barn furniture shop will hold special sales at the corner of Par-
menter Street and Terrace Avenue Sunday, June 15 from 8-4 p.m and Sunday, Aug 25 from 8-4 p.m.
On Saturday, June 7, at 5:17 p.m.,
Middleton Police officers responded to
a residence in the 7400 block of Cen-
tury Avenue for a report of a female
that called 911 and said someone was
taking items from her residence with-
out her permission.
Upon arrival, officers were informed
the ex-boyfriend of the caller had
forcibly entered the victims apartment
and had proceeded to steal numerous
items.
Initial investigation revealed that the
suspect had forced entry to the resi-
dence and removed approximately
$2,800 in personal property. Just as of-
ficers arrived, witnesses said the sus-
pect fled in a vehicle after striking a
parked car and was last seen traveling
eastbound on Century Avenue. Minutes
later, the Middleton Communication
Center started receiving 911 calls re-
garding a separate two-vehicle crash
on Century Avenue at Park Street with
one of the drivers fleeing on foot from
the crash scene.
Officers located the driver that fled
from the crash scene a short time later
hiding in a window well at a residence
in the 6900 block of Prairie Drive. It
was determined that this was the same
suspect that fled the scene of the bur-
glary minutes prior and was also in-
volved in the traffic accident. After
failing to comply with officers verbal
commands, the suspect picked up a 2-
3 foot long stick and advanced towards
the officers. Middleton Police officers
used a Taser to subdue the suspect after
the suspect failed to comply with the
officers commands.
The suspect, Epifanio Perez, 34 of
Middleton, was arrested and tentatively
charged with Operating While Intoxi-
cated (2nd offense), Operating After
Revocation, two counts of Hit & Run,
Failure to Report Accident to Police,
Improper Right Turn and
Resisting/Obstructing Officers. He was
also arrested and jailed for Burglary
and Disorderly Conduct related to the
initial call.

The dog days of summer are fast ap-
proaching! Do you have enough read-
ing material to get you through? The
Summer Reading Program at the Mid-
dleton Public Library begins on June 9
and runs through August 30. Adults,
teens, and children of any age are in-
vited to sign up at the library, track
their reading through the summer, and
qualify for fabulous prizes. Were also
offering a wide variety of events, in-
cluding a birthday party for Garfield
(everyones favorite cat!), an opportu-
nity to interact with bugs up close, con-
certs, an author visit, an inflatable
planetarium (inside the library!), and
lots more. Whether youre at the li-
brary to sign up for the Summer Read-
ing Program or attend an event, be sure
to pick up a book or two to get you in
the summertime spirit!
A good bet for picture book readers
is Marla Frazees A Couple of Boys

James and Eamon spend a week visit-
ing Eamons grandparents at the beach.
During the day, the boys go to nature
camp, and at night, they entertain
Eamons grandparents with tales of
their daytime adventures. Bill,
Eamons grandfather, makes repeated
efforts to engage the boys in his fa-
vorite topic: penguins. The illustra-
tions throughout the book are lively
and delightful (this book received a
Caldecott Honor in 2009). Young
readers will love poring over the end-
papers, which bear drawings of photo-
graphs showing happenings throughout
the week. Dont be surprised when
your child asks to hear this one again
and again!

Twelve-year-old Angie, who is Japan-
ese-American, is sent to live with her
grandparents in Gardena, a small town
outside of Los Angeles for the summer.
Angies parents are going through a di-
vorce, and they believe that having
Angie live with her grandparents might
make the process a little easier for her.
However, Angie is not looking forward
to living in Gardena. She would rather
be spending the summer at home, with
her friends. Before long, Angies
grandparents and aunt have her busy in
their flower shop, folding traditional
origami displays for newlywed cou-
ples. Despite her initial reluctance to
learning the art, she quickly becomes
very skilled and enjoys her growing re-
lationships with family and friends
(and even a little romance!).
Try out a new format and celebrate

ming!) with Swimmy and Other Sto-

away Views are portable, and they can
be enjoyed together by listening
through the devices speakers, or indi-
vidually by attaching a pair of head-
phones. We have a brand new
collection of Playaway Views, and our
staff would love to show them to you
the next time youre here! Swimmy is
the classic story of a school of red fish
who find themselves in danger until
Swimmy, a little black fish, comes up
with a brilliant plan to protect them.
This lovable tale about an unlikely hero
will inspire young readers and listeners
to find their own opportunities to shine

Bornier Dijon Mustard, from the
French company Europene de Condi-
ments, has been named Grand Cham-
pion at the 2014 World-Wide Mustard
Competition.
Held under the direction of the Na-
tional Mustard Museum in Middleton,
Wisconsin, the 2014 World-Wide Mus-
tard Competition drew more than 300
entries in sixteen flavor categories.
Judges tasted the mustards blind, not
knowing if they were tasting interna-
tional brands or small boutique mus-
tards. The judging took place at the
Museum Museum and also at the
Kendall College Culinary Arts School
in Chicago, where chefs, food writers,
and restaurateurs gathered to pick the
Grand Champion from the sixteen
Gold Medal winning mustards.
Bornier Dijon represents all that
one could want in a classic Dijon mus-
tard, says Barry Levenson, Curator of
the National Mustard Museum and di-
rector of the competition since 1995.
It is sharp, perfectly balanced, silky
smooth, and versatile for use in both
cooking and as a condiment for sand-
wiches, sausages, or cheese. Bornier
mustards go back nearly two centuries,
as the brand originated as the creation
of master French mustard maker
(moutardier) Denis Bornier. The fac-
tory is located in Couchey, only a few
kilometers from the city limits of
Dijon.
Other mustards from France won
medals, as did mustards from Japan,
Sweden, Canada, and the United
States. In addition to the Dijon cate-
gory, judges sampled sweet-hot, honey,
whole-grain, classic hot, pepper-hot,
horseradish, herb, garlic, fruit, spirit,
American yellow, deli, and exotic fla-
vors, as well as mustard-based dress-
ings and BBQ sauces. The
competition shows how varied the fla-
vors and style or mustard are, says
Barry Levenson. Dijon may represent
the old-world traditional school of
mustard but mustard lovers cant live
without it.
Nassau Candy Company (www.nas-
saucandy.com) is the exclusive distrib-
utor of Bornier mustards in the United
States. The mustards are also available
to consumers through the National
Mustard Museum gift shop and its on-
line store, www.mustardmuseum.com.
The nonprofit National Mustard
Museum features the worlds largest
collection of mustards (more than
5,600) and mustard memorabilia. The
museum is open daily from 10 a.m. to
5 p.m.

Sun Prairie-based non-profit Hope 2
Others will face its biggest challenge
to date this summer: making the
19,340-foot ascent up Tanzanias high-
est peak, Mt. Kilimanjaro.
Hope 2 Others staff and volunteers
will brave high altitudes, cold temper-
atures and rough terrain to raise funds
for the Hope 2 Others Medical Center
that is being built in Kisongo, Tanza-
nia. The climb is expected to take 34
hours during a six-day period.
Hope 2 Others is challenging com-
munity members to climb with them
this summer. The Prairie Athletic Club
(PAC) and Harbor Athletic Club are
teaming up with Hope 2 Others to offer
the Inaugural Climb for a Cause chal-
lenge.
An hour of climbing a mountain is
equal to running approximately five
miles an hour. With that in mind, Hope
2 Others is challenging individuals,
teams (up to 6) and businesses/organi-
zations to run 170 miles (or bike 340
miles) from June 20 July 10.
Just like our Mt. Kilimanjaro
climbing team will have to work to-
gether to reach the top, we challenge
people to come together for a friendly
fitness competition, Hope 2 Others
Public Relations Director Rachel Wit-
trock said. While individuals are wel-
come, the Climb for a Cause challenge
can be best achieved by working to-
gether.
Registration costs $35 per person
and includes a Climb for a Cause T-
shirt, water bottle, African necklace,
Kilimanjaro button, Hope 2 Others
bracelet and a drawstring backpack to
store all your climbing supplies.
Registration forms are available on
www.bringinghope2others.com on the
Home page and under the Events tab.
Individuals and teams are encour-
aged to collect pledges for their miles.
All funds raised will be used to build
the first Hope 2 Others Medical Center,
which will provide birthing, medical
and nutritional care, as well as clean
drinking water, to 20,000 people in
Kisongo, Tanzania.
Event participants must register by
May 20 to ensure T-shirt availability
and size. Participants can pick up their
event packets and turn in their pledges
at Harbor Athletic Club, 2529 Allen
Blvd., Middleton, on June 19-21 from
5-8 p.m., or at the Prairie Athletic Club,
1010 N. Bird St., Sun Prairie, on June
20-21 from 5-8 p.m.
In addition to registering as an indi-
vidual, team or business, participants
can also choose to register and have
their packet mailed directly to them for
an additional $10. Pledges must still be
turned in between June 19-21 or
mailed in advance to Hope 2 Others.
Registration forms and payments
can be mailed to: Hope 2 Others, P.O.
Box 1006, Sun Prairie, WI 53590. Reg-
istrations may also be made by visiting

OBITUARY BITUARY
PATRICIA ANN
(KAMENICK)ARNTSEN
MADISON-Patricia Ann (Ka-
menick) Arntsen peacefully passed
away the morning of June 4, 2014, at
her home at Oakwood Village in Madi-
son, Wisconsin. She found joy and
happiness in all parts of life. She not
only saw the glass as half full, she de-
lighted in every drop of it. Pat was
born Oct. 13, 1932, at her grandpar-
ents home in rural Marathon County,
Wisconsin. She grew up with her five
brothers and three sisters in central and
northern Wisconsin, graduating from
Laona High School in 1950. She re-
ceived a scholarship to attend nursing
school at St. Josephs Hospital in
Marshfield, became a registered nurse,
and practiced her profession for over
forty-five years in Marshfield, Madi-
son, Eau Claire, Tomah and Waukesha,
retiring in 1997. Along the way she re-
ceived a bachelors degree from St.
Francis College. She loved nature,
classical music, travel, her Irish her-
itage, and her family. She collected
teapots and pets, and crafted scores of
beautiful and unique quilts, which she
delighted in giving away to friends and
family. They are treasures we all will
cherish. She sang in choirs that per-
formed in Ireland and France, and
loved to travel throughout the coun-
try. She loved her children and grand-
children, and reveled in family
events. Although afflicted by multiple
ailments, she always did the best with
what she had, and loved every minute
of it.
She was preceded in death by her
parents, Anton and Mae Kamenick,
and her brothers Marlon and Terrence
Kamenick. She is survived by six sib-
lings, Lois Coleman, LaVerne (Natalie)
Kamenick, Madonna (Roger) Wicking-
son, Toni Jean (Tom) Kettwig, Duaine
(Carol) Kamenick, and Vaughn (Patsy)
Kamenick; five children, Allen Arntsen
(Elizabeth Erickson), Andrew Arntsen,
Peggy (Derek) Popp, Pete Arntsen, and
Amy Arntsen; nine grandchildren,
Quinn Arntsen (Halley Lauer), Rose
Arntsen, Tara Arntsen, Lia Arntsen,
Alex Popp, Mariah Popp, Arlo
Arntsen, Claire Pevehouse, and Ava
Pevehouse; and her beloved cat, Jack.
A memorial service was held at the
RESURRECTION CHAPEL AT
OAKWOOD VILLAGE, 6901 Min-
eral Point Road, Madison, at 3 p.m.
Saturday, June 7, with a reception fol-
lowing. Memorials in Pats name may
be gifted to Wisconsin Public Radio,
Madison Opera, and the Pheasant

Brewery unveils
solar panels...
Capital Brewery is harnessing the power of the sun to offset its energy
costs and make the local brewery and bier garten among the most envi-
ronmentally friendly in the country. Scott Wiener, brewery president, who
also happens to have a degree in electrical engineering and has solar panels
powering his home, led an erudite press conference on Thursday of last
week, explaining the project to City of Middleton leaders. The photovoltaic
panels will generate an estimated $2,000 in electricity annually, allowing
for a payback period of 6-7 years, according to Wiener. After that,
Wiener said, its all gravy.
The system is designed for maximum efficiency. Its sounds goofy, but
were basically using the grid as a battery, he explained, later adding that
the goal is 100 percent utilization.
It actually makes your meter run backward, Wiener said.

Project to pay for self in 6 to 7 years
ple of another gender, says Adam Jor-
dahl, a senior at MHS. The intent was
not to mock cross-dressing or to stereo-
type, but instead to have fun and show
that the clothing someone wears
doesnt change a thing about who they
are.
Superintendent Don Johnson said
the district made an announcement
asking students not to cross-dress be-
cause of the potential hurtfulness it
could cause to gay, lesbian and trans-
gender students in the school. Johnson
and the school board recently heard nu-
merous comments from students who
identify as transgender asking that dis-
trict do more to prevent the discrimina-
tion they have been facing at the high
school.
The district is planning to review
their discrimination policy and make
any changes needed to accommodate
those with grievances. A vote is ex-
pected in July.
Gay Straight Alliance for Safe
Schools (GSAFE) is a 501(c)3 organi-
zation that serves the state though pri-
marily South Central Wisconsin. The
announced their support for the admin-
istrations decision on social media.
This is not the first time cross-
dressing day has come up, says Tim
Michael, GSAFE Outreach Manager.
Often times we get a call from the ad-
visor of the Gay Straight Alliance or a
similar club and they have a concern
about it.
Regardless of the intent, it opens
the door for some remarkably misogy-
nistic things to happenand can become
over sexualized, Michael adds. The
other thing is that we have transgender
students in our schools who every day
struggle with having their preferred
gender recognized and to have a whole
bunch of their peers suddenly dressing
in clothes associated with a different
gender for fun or silliness can feel hurt-
ful to them.
Current and past students say the
theme was not intended to be hurtful.
The president of the MHS Sexual-
ity and Gender Equality Club ex-
pressed support for the day, provided
that outfits did not portray negative
stereotypes, Jordahl noted. None of
the male seniors that I saw participat-
ing today, including myself, were
wearing clothes that insultedwomen or
even violated the dress code. One male
student wore a dress that he had worn
to school on several previous occa-
sions, and was never bothered about it
until today.
Michael of GSAFE says in perfect
world students can certainly dress how
they want to dress.
In a perfect world, if a boy wants
to wear a dress to school, he should be
allowed to, Michael says. Unfortu-
nately when there is a big event like
this it is not meant to be educational, it
is meant to be silly and fun and can feel
to some students like their experiences
are being made fun of.
Many female seniors came to
school wearing tank tops, sports jer-
seys, button up shirts, khaki pants, bas-
ketball shorts, etc; clothes usually worn
by male students, Jordahl explained.
Some female students were asked by
teachers or administration to change
their outfits; most were not, and most
were not forced to change. One girl
who wore a business suit to school was
made to remove her necktie.
Some male seniors came wearing
dresses, skirts, athletic shorts, blouses,
etc; clothes usually worn by female
students. Jordahl adds. Almost all
male students were forced to change
their clothing.
District spokesman Perry Hibner
said seniors that came in dressed up
were cooperative when asked to
change.
We want our school to be a fun
place for the seniors, we want it to be a
great last week, but we dont want that
fun to come at the expense of any
group at our school, said Hibner.

Union prez
responds to
Johnsons letter
To the editor and the Middleton-
Cross Plains Area School District
Community:
It is misleading to state that the letter
from May 27
th
signed by teachers casts
a negative light on the Middleton-
Cross Plains Area School District.
This letter highlighted the climate and
morale of the teachers in the district
and the lack of response to the teach-
ers request to bargain a new contract.
If there was a negative light cast, it was
on the lack of response by the admin-
istration to these issues.
Dr. Johnson is quick to point out that
MEA has refused to engage in discus-
sions with the District regarding a
handbook. On the contrary, MEA will
sit down with the District at any time
to discuss items of mutual interest. Dr.
Johnson fails to inform the community
that the district refused to engage in
discussions with MEA unless we gave
up all rights to negotiate a contract and
our right to take any legal action to re-
quire that the district meet its obliga-
tion to engage in good faith bargaining.
The Board and Administration have
been told repeatedly that we will dis-
cuss with them at any time issues of
mutual interest. The district must be
willing to discontinue mandating con-
ditions to these discussions that force
us to give up our rights or have any sig-
nificant voice in the process.
MEA has been making requests to
the District and BOE to begin the col-
lective bargaining process since Sep-
tember 2013 and the district has
refused. They state that they are fol-
lowing the law, when in fact no court
rulings have overturned Judge Colas
initial ruling that allows for collective
bargaining. The district also states that
MEA is not the legal representative of
the teachers in this district. Again we
vehemently disagree. As long as we
have a contract we are still the bargain-
ing agent for the teachers of MCPASD.
If we dont have a contract, we will
continue to represent the teachers of
this district as long as teachers tell us
we represent them. The district needs
to understand that fact.
Dr. Johnson dismisses the fact the
staff morale in our district is at an all
time low and instead repeats empty
promises and words of appreciation
that ring hollow. He reports that the
number of teachers leaving the district
and the cause for these departures as
typical. What he fails to understand
is that these individuals often do not
provide to the administration the true
reason for their departure. Just as only
37 teaches signed the letter to the editor
on May 27, the reason teachers do not
report their motive for leaving, is fear;
fear of reprisal, fear of receiving a less
than positive recommendation, fear of
being targeted.
Our counterparts in Madison have
received not one, but two contracts re-
cently, because their Superintendent
and BOE believe in collective bargain-
ing and believe that it works for all. It
is disheartening that our Administra-
tion and BOE do not share these be-
liefs. They are afraid to take a bold
step and do what Judge Colas ruling
allows-negotiate. So they will try to
convince teachers that they care, with
platitudes and words of appreciation,
all while placing more and more de-
mands on teachers. They will say they
want to engage in discussions regard-
ing a handbook and blame MEA for
refusing to discuss anything while
ignoring the fact that they mandate un-
tenable conditions to these discussions.
They talk about difficult times, but they
ignore the fact that the same conditions
that allowed us to negotiate a contract
for 2013-14 still exist. Sadly, it appears
that while the Madison School Board
and Superintendent want to work with
the teachers union to provide stability
for their staff through the collective
bargaining process the MCPASD
School Board and Superintendent do
not. They have made it abundantly
clear that they simply do not believe in
collective bargaining.
Teachers in our district will continue
to teach and do their best for our stu-
dents, because that is what they do. Dr.
Johnson and the Board can continue to
make their public statements of appre-
ciation, but those who work inside the
schools in this district know that those
words are not supported by actions. In
a survey taken earlier in the year, only
7-8% of teachers responding stated that
the Superintendent and the Board of
Education are supportive of teachers
and have demonstrated that support
with their actions. That should send a
clear and disturbing message to this
community.

A very special
weekend...
Letter to the editor:
Last weekend, my third grade
daughter, Nadia, spent two days as the
Bat Girl for a 5th grade Middleton
boys baseball team. I will say that it
was probably the most exciting week-
end that she has ever had. And, for me,
the most touching.
The catch - my 5th grade son doesnt
play baseball. But, his former football
and basketball coaches (and their
wives and sons), the ones that made
Nadia honorary basketball Manager for
the traveling basketball team this win-
ter, recently offered to let Nadia be the
Bat Girl for their baseball team this
weekend. Nadia, always enthusiastic,
agreed.
When we arrived last Saturday, they
had an embroidered shirt with her
name on the sleeve and Bat Girl on
the back. In her size. They had a team
of boys that spent two days patting her
on the back and high-fiving her and
gently handing her the bat when she
ran onto the field. They had parents
cheering her on for two solid games
and coaches that bent down to tell her
what a good job she was doing.
And, they made lifelong fans of the
Veit family and a little girl so very
happy that I am not sure she will ever
take the shirt off. She slept in it last
night and arrived at the championship
game today with the shirt still on. She
talked all weekend about the team
needing her and about how she in-
tended to cheer really loudly because
they were definitely going to win.
Definitely. By golly, they did.
I kept wandering over to her, to
check on her, and to sneak pictures -
but, each time, I wandered away again,
my heart so full of pride and of grati-
tude that I felt like it might indeed
burst. I would see the boys leaning
down to talk to her and watch her face
beam up at them and I couldnt help
but wonder how we could be so very
lucky.
When the team won and Nadias
magical weekend was about to come to
a close, I saw them bring her with them
to line up and shake hands. I saw her
get ready to walk towards the coach
when he was handing out the first-
place trophies to each of the boys that
had played their hearts out for four
solid, scorching hot games. I tried to
call her back to the fence, where I was
pressing my phone up to the chain link
so I could snap one last photo of her
big moment. And then, I saw that the
coach handed Nadia a trophy, too, and
called them all over for one last cele-
bratory photo. An extra, his wife
later said with a wink.
This is the epitome of the quote by
Bill Wilson, To the world you may be
one person, but to one person, you may
be the world. To all of the boys, fam-
ilies and coaches, thank you from the
bottom of my heart and the tippy top of
Nadias, as it overflows with joy and
pride tonight. A special thank you to
the extraordinary Jay, Susan and Bubba
Smith and the amazing Dan, Camille
and Nolan Dunn. They make Middle-
ton truly the Good Neighbor City.

Town of Middleton
Bluegrass and
Brews Benefit
I love an event that features great
food, great music and a great cause.
Theres such an event, coming up soon,
right here in Middleton, on Sunday,
June 22 at the Capital Brewery.
The Musicians for WORT Bluegrass
Benefit will take place from 1-5 pm
that afternoon. It features music by the
Mad City Jug Band, Krause Family
Band and the No Name String Band.
Emcee for the event is Middletons
Chris Powers, musician, in his own
right, and DJ for WORTs Friday
morning program, the popular Mud
Acres, featuring bluegrass and acoustic
favorites.
Food carts from Bobs BBQ Empo-
rium of Mt. Horeb and Lao Lang
Xiang of Madison will provide great
food fare. The name Capital Brewery
says it all when it comes to the bever-
ages.
Our community radio station,
WORT, or 89.9 on your radio dial, will
benefit from the nominal donation at
the door. The Madison area is host to
many fine radio stations, but in my es-
timation, none of them hold a candle to
the level of offerings in both music and
news that is served up through WORT.
WORT DJs are all volunteer and are
both passionate and experts in their
particular type of music. For example,
every Wednesday morning from 9 am
to noon, Bill Malone hosts a music
show called Back to the Country. His
book, Country Music USA has been
acclaimed as the definitive history of
American Country Music.
From 2-4 pm on Saturdays, you can
tour the African continent in music.
DJs Alhaji NJai, Ph.D and Linda
Vakunta, Ph.D. candidate at UW Madi-
sons Nelsons Institute for Environ-
mental Studies, introduce both
traditional and modern music of the
continent. Its a fascinating show with
commentary on the history and cul-
tures of Africa.
Often the DJs bring music from their
own personal collections. In addition,
WORT has over 35,000 vinyl albums
and a diverse array of CDs and digital
music content.
There are experts in jazz, classical,
rock and roll, hip-hop and more, shar-
ing information on the background of
particular songs as well as how the
music genre developed. A schedule of
programs can be found on the website:
www.wortfm.org
We also cover many of the local
summer music festivals with live re-
motes of the music, says music direc-
tor, Sybil Augustine.
Another reason to support WORT
Community Radio, is because of their
news offerings. Theres been a signifi-
cant decrease in local news on radio
across the country.
WORT is one of the few stations
able to support locally created news
programming. There is a paid news di-
rector, Molly Stentz, who works with
UW Madison interns and volunteers to
help create local news programming
thats relevant to this community.
We have 2-4 UW interns each se-
mester and some from Madison Media
College, as well as students from the
Boys and Girls Club who come to
work with us in the summers.
WORT gives a voice and the tools
for people to make their own media
whether its news or music program-
ming. People are sharing their own
passions, knowledge and stories, work-
ing with other people to create pro-
gramming thats not available
anywhere else on the radio dial, says
Norm Stockwell, Operations Coordi-
nator.
When I answer phones for the
WORT pledge drives, most callers not
only mention the wonderful musical
offerings, but also say that they appre-
ciate the local news shows; In Our
Backyard, A Public Affair and Health
Writers. Democracy Now and the ex-
tended BBC news are also highly val-
ued by listeners.
WORT posts its archives in web
content. If Im working, I dont have
to miss my favorite jazz show. I just
listen later! When Im traveling out of
reach of the airwaves, I can listen live
on my computer.
Offering the web content, using
transmitting towers, paying staff and
the electric bill all take money. Be-
cause the station is commercial free
radio, a lions share of the funds to run
the station, approximately 68%, come
from individual listener sponsors.
The Summer Pledge Drive, Fun in
the Radio Sun, is taking place right
now through June 16. Its easy to call
in to make a pledge. Just dial, 608-256-
2001. A helpful volunteer is waiting to
help you make a pledge!
The premiums for making a pledge
are great. There are tickets to local
music events, CDs, t-shirts, and so, so,
much more. Middletons Steve Blank
and co-host of Worts Health Writers
program, designed the logo for the pint
beer glass that can be yours for making
a pledge at the $50 level.
The other 32% of funds are pro-
duced through the WORT block party
and other fundraisers like the Bluegrass
Benefit. The idea for the June 22 event
came from listener supporters Tina
Nelson and Ralph Shivley, co-chairs of
WORTs events committee.
WORT usually has a presence at the
major summer festivals in and around
Madison. At the booth, you can buy
WORT t-shirts and other items featur-
ing the stations logo. Its also a chance
to get a paper copy of the on-air sched-
ule, the latest newsletter or just to say
hi and get to know some of the many
WORT volunteers.
If youre not around for the wonder-
ful WORT Bluegrass Festival at Capi-
tal Brewery on June 22 from 1-5, make
sure that you look for our table at one
of the other area events.

installed to convey storm water from
the west building rooftop and an inter-
nal courtyard. The pipes currently end
in a manhole with an open grate and no
outlet pipe.
During every significant rainstorm,
the water bubbles over the top of the
manhole grate and into the adjoining
Firemans Park, where it ponds some-
times for days, compromising the use
of the park, noted Charles E. Nahn of
Nahn Associates.
After reviewing the various drainage
issues affecting the area in question,
some Council members sought clarifi-
cation regarding funding streams for
the project.
At this point, it is unclear exactly
what dollars are going to the project,
said Hans Hilbert (Dist. 7).
Following discussion, the Council
opted to defer approving the proposed
changes until an agreement regarding
the projects funding is in place with
the City and the Middleton-Cross
Plains Area School District.
Mark Sullivan (Dist. 8) urged the
council to decline the infiltration sys-
tem option and pipe the runoff instead.
After proposing an additional motion
which would nix infiltration and move
to piping, Sullivans motion, seconded
by Brar, failed 3-4.
Other decisions made by the Coun-
cil at Tuesdays meeting:
- Approval for the 2015 Pheasant
Branch Streambank Restoration and
Habitat Enhancement Project with
Cardno JF New in an amount not to ex-
ceed $22,900.
- The Middleton Public Library re-
ceived approval to use the east end of
the Terrace Avenue parking lot on June
23, 2014 for the Sassy Cow Program.
- A resolution passed to transfer Gen-
eral Fund contingency funds to Gen-
eral Fund non-departmental budget to

Information Program.
- Approval for the Library Board

CHURCH NOTES
The Citizens Academy met offsite
at the Dane County Law Enforcement
Training Center (DCLETC) for their
ninth session on Wednesday, May 28.
As this was the last learning segment
of the course, its safe to say the best
was saved for last. On the schedule for
the day: learning about and practicing
the use of firearms.
Before proceeding to the firing
range, Officer Rich OConnor and Of-
ficer Dave Kasdorf explained the con-
text behind using deadly force. In order
to justify the use of firearms, a police
officer must feel as though there is im-
minent danger to himself/herself or at
least one bystander. Imminent danger
involves a suspect with intent, a
weapon, and a means to deliver upon
their threat. Ultimately, the police offi-
cers goal is to stop the threat by what-
ever means necessary; shooting to kill
is not the driving force of the equation.
Since many of the students had
never fired a gun before, Officers O-
Connor and Kasdorf instructed the
class on the correct technique for hold-
ing and shooting firearms, as well as
the necessary safety precautions.
On the range, each student was
paired with a Middleton Police Depart-
ment Officer to coach and keep us safe.
We each had our own gun to use and
target to fire at. Officer OConnor led
the class, instructing us when to shoot,
move position, and reload.
Following the confidence boost of
shooting from five yards away, we
slowly began to move back: seven
yards, ten yards, fifteen yards, up to
twenty yards. After making a mess of
our targets, Officer OConnor began to
challenge us even further: he put a
Post-It Note on the targets face and we
had to shoot it, we had to aim for a
small bullseye in the upper right-hand
corner of the target, and we had to
shoot twice, aiming for the same bullet
hole each time.
The class went as smoothly as a
class full of newbies could go, and
some of my classmates discovered they
were a pretty good shot!
Check back next week to hear about
the Citizens Academy graduation!

Celebrating local trails on a beautiful Saturday
The City of Middleton held its 10 annual National Trails Day celebration Sat-
urday, June 7 from 9 a.m. to noon at Orchid Heights Park on Valley Ridge Road.
We started National Trails Day so we could celebrate the Pheasant Branch

Their pitching was sublime
throughout the day.
They had timely hitting and the
defense was immaculate.
And because Middletons baseball
team was terrific in all three areas, its
headed back to the WIAA Division 1
state tournament.
Middleton won its own sectional
Tuesday and will now play in a state
quarterfinal game June 17 at 1 p.m. at
Fox Cities Stadium in Appleton.
Middleton opened the day with a 2-
1 over La Crosse Central in a sectional
semifinal. The Cardinals then toppled
Reedsburg, 7-3, in the sectional final.
Middleton will now make its sev-
enth trip to state since 2002.
Were playing our best ball right
now and that was our goal at the
beginning of the season, Middleton
senior catcher Jackson Keeler said.
Its nice to try to win the conference,
but ultimately we want to be playing
our best baseball when the playoffs
roll around.
They are.
Middleton escaped in the sectional
semis against La Crosse Central.
Senior pitcher Kasey Miller threw
a complete-game, three hitter and had
three hits himself.
He did it at the plate and, more
importantly on the mound today,
Middleton manager Tom Schmitt said
of Miller. Hes got the stuff, you
know, you need to have in a No. 1
pitcher.
He didnt have his best outing
against Waunakee (in the regional
final) because he wasnt feeling great.
But he showed what a senior can do,
have a chance to be special and give
his team a chance to get in a sectional
final and he did.
Middleton took a 1-0 lead in the
first inning on a single by Alex Elliott
and a Central error, which allowed
Luke Schafer to score.
Miller had an RBI single in the
third as Middleton took a 2-0 lead.
Central appeared to score a pair of
runs with a two-run double in the
fourth inning that would have tied the
game. But Middleton appealed the
play and it was ruled the base-runner
missed third, leaving the Cardinals
protecting a 2-1 lead.
Central put the tying run on second
in the top of the sixth. But Middleton
had a pair of stellar defensive plays,
then Miller notched a huge strikeout.
Central put two runners on again in
the seventh. But Miller pulled another
Houdini act, escaped the jam and the

100-meter dash,

When Ernest Winters crossed the
finish line, he immediately entered a
time warp.
Middletons senior track and field
standout had just finished first in the
coveted 100-meter dash at the WIAA
Division 1 state meet at UW-La
Crosse last Saturday. With it, Winters
captured the tag of Wisconsins
fastest high schooler.
But instead of focusing on the
here and now, Winters flashed back
to 2011.
When I crossed that line I could-
nt believe it, Winters said. All I
could think about was the first day of
track freshman year because thats
when it all started. Very humbling
experience.
And a pretty remarkable one, too.
In addition to winning the 100,
Winters was also third in the 200.
Winters also anchored Middletons
400-meter relay team that finished
second.
Cardinals senior Andy Keeler also
had a big weekend, finishing second
in the high jump with a leap of 6-
feet, 6 inches.
The performances of Winters,
Keeler and the rest of the Cardinals
helped Middleton finish fifth overall
as a team. That ties the best finish in
school history, previously set in
2004.
It was fulfilling to finish off this
season accomplishing our goal of a
top-five finish at state, Middleton

Middletons girls
finish ninth at state
by ROB REISCHEL
Times-Tribune
Their quartet was battered and
bruised, wounded and wobbly.
But Middletons 3,200-meter relay
team had the resolve and determina-
tion to never give up. And that mantra
paid off in spades last weekend.
At the WIAA Division 1 girls state
track and field meet held at UW-La
Crosse, Middletons 3,200-relay team
finished second overall. That perform-
ance helped spark the Cardinals to a
ninth place finish as a team.
Middletons 3,200 was certainly
one of its most talented outfits and
proved that in La Crosse. But the
Cardinals overcame a series of
injuries to make it happen, which
made the final results even sweeter.
Im so incredibly proud, said
Middleton junior Rachel Wians, who
ran the first leg of the 3,200. We
faced some injuries midway through
the season, but we were lucky enough
to have enough depth to put together a
team and still qualify.
Middletons 3,200-meter relay
team which consisted of Wians,
senior Delaney Foster, sophomore
Sam Valentine and junior Bobbi
Patrick set a new school-record
with their time of 9 minutes, 16.71
seconds.
team of sophomore Hanne Anderson-
Smith, junior Emily Zeker, junior
Hanna Docter and Patrick also fin-
ished second.
Those two foursomes were a huge
reason the Cardinals had such a mem-
orable weekend.

Baseball Cards
win sectional
by ROB REISCHEL
Times-Tribune
VERONA Every year,
Middleton boys golf coach Tom
Cabalka spends his winters in
Arizona.
And when Cabalka races back
every March to coach the Cardinals,
many wonder why?
Heres why.
For veterans like Josh Haunty and
Charlie Stankiewicz. For up-and-com-
ing stars like Brady Thomas, Joey
Levin and Emmet Herb.
That quintet assembled another ter-
rific season for Middletons dynamic
golf program and finished fourth at the
WIAA Division 1 state tournament
held Monday and Tuesday at
University Ridge. And even though
the Cardinals fell short of their ulti-
mate goal of winning a state title, they
produced a year to remember and
one Cabalka will always hold dear.
Its guys like this that keep me
coming back, Cabalka said. This
was a really, really special group.
Homestead won the state title with
a 618-team score, edging Green Bay
Notre Dame (619) by one shot. Eau
Claire Memorial was third at 624,
while Middleton (627) and Marquette
(630) rounded out the top five at the
16-team event.
The Cardinals tied for the lowest
score in the tournament Tuesday,
shooting a rock solid 306. But
Middleton was done in by an opening
round 321, that left it in ninth place
going to the second day.
I think we did a great job battling
back and showing that were legit,
said Levin, a sophomore. But I just
feel really bad for the seniors that we
shot a 321 and were in that position.
Haunty, a senior, agreed.
Were sad, but happy we made a
comeback, he said. I think we
proved something.
Middleton entered the tournament
hoping to prove it was the best team in
the state. The Cardinals were ranked
No. 1 in the final Golf Coaches
Association of Wisconsin poll, and
seemed poised to live up to that lofty
acclaim.
But from the start Monday,
Middleton struggled.
Haunty had a strong opening
round, shooting a 4-over-par 76.
Thomas was steady throughout, as
well, carding a 78.
But Middleton which had all
five players averaging between 74 and
78 prior to state had three players
struggle.
Levin shot an 83, while both Herb
and Staniewicz carded 84s.
I dont know really if it was
nerves or not, Stankiewicz said.
Personally, I know I just couldn't find
my game. I just couldnt get it going.
Added Haunty: We wanted to win
really bad, but we just really strug-
gled. I don't think you can blame one
thing or one shot, it just happened. Im
sure it was a little bit of nerves, but it
was just a bad day all around.
Middletons 321-team score was its
second-poorest of the season. And it
left the Cardinals in ninth place,
although they were only 13 strokes
behind Homestead.
That's not a huge deficit, Cabalka
said. Anything is possible.
And Middleton played that way
during Tuesdays second round.
The Cardinals made an early move,
playing the first three holes at just 1-
over-par as a team. And at the turn,
Middleton was just 8-over as a team
and had vaulted from ninth place to
fourth.
But Homestead refused to blink
and the Cardinals picked up just one
shot on the Highlanders.
They had a very positive attitude,
and I think that really picked me up,
Cabalka said. They all felt they could
improve by five or six strokes and
some of them did that.
Unfortunately for the Cardinals, it
wasnt quite enough.
Levin and Stankiewicz who
played No. 4 and 5 in the lineup,
respectively had terrific days.
Levin was rock soid, shot 38 on
both sides and finished at 76.
Stankiewicz made an eagle on the par-
5 second hole and finished the day at
76, as well.
Haunty shot a 1-under-par, 35, on
the front nine and finished with a 77.
And Thomas carded three birdies and
finished with a 77 of his own.
Im just so proud of how we came
back and ended on a high note,
Cabalka said. It was unfortunate that
we shot what we did (Monday). But
things happen.
Added Levin: I think the biggest
thing I takeaway is that we really kept
grinding out there. We had a really
solid second day and we never gave
up.
And now, this is really going to
push me this winter and I think all
of our guys. We want to be No. 1 in
the state.
Middleton reached virtually all of
its goals this season, except finishing
on top of the state.
The Cardinals won the Big Eight
Conference dual meet and postseason
titles. Middleton was the regional and
sectional champion.
And perhaps most importantly,
they were a band of brothers that had
just as much fun off the course as they
did on it.
It was a great year and Id call it a
success, Stankiewicz said. It would
have been great to play close to home
and bring home a state title. But it was
still a great season.
Levin agreed.
This was the best season ever, he
said. We were a tight group of guys
and we hung out all the time and all of
us got along great. Now, its going to
be hard without Josh and Charlie.
Golfers rally,

Brady Thomas and Middletons boys golf team finished fourth at the WIAA
Division 1 state meet.
Middleton settles
for fourth at state
The degree of difficulty was off the
charts.
But thats never stopped Middleton
senior forward Ellen Jesse before. And
it certainly didnt stymie her last
Saturday afternoon.
In a WIAA Division 1 girls soccer
regional final, Jesse scored a circus
goal in the 23rd minute. Jesses goal
held up as the Cardinals edged
Verona, 1-0.
We definitely should have put a
couple more away, Jesse said. But it
only takes one.
And what a one it was.
Middleton had several opportuni-
ties early on. But Jesse made the most
of her golden chance.
Senior Caroline Keenan sent a gor-
geous ball forward from Middletons
side of the field that Jesse corralled.
Jesse had a defender draped on
each side of her, and Verona goalie
Madison Westfall left her cage to try
securing the free ball. But Jesse beat
both defenders to the punch, then from
17 yards out she lofted a shot up and
over the diving Westfall that found the
back of the net and gave Middleton a
1-0 lead.
Caroline played a perfect ball for-
ward and I kind of got a foot on it and
made a weird flip over the goalie,
Jesse said. I tried to get it over her
because I wasnt going to get it under
her.
It was definitely a little bit of luck
there. But Im really glad it went it,
right below the post.
Jesse estimated that shed convert
that shot about 15% of the time. But
timing is everything, and Jesses was
perfect.
I dont know if it was a shot or if
she was just throwing something in
there to see what happens, Middleton
coach Mary Duffy said. Its not a
high percentage shot. There were two
people on her back and another one
charging at her. But thats what shell
do. You cross your fingers and hope
for the best.
Middleton had several early
chances, but couldnt capitalize.
Keenan had a solid shot on goal in
the fifth minute and junior midfielder
Megan Sullivan missed just high in
the seventh minute.
Veronas Westfall made a terrific
save on Jesse in the eighth minute and
senior forward Brenna Shea sent a
header over the net in the 11th minute.
Finally, Jesse found the back of the
net at 22:35.
That was just a classic Ellen goal,
where she was working really hard to
finish all the way, Middleton keeper
Liz McMahon said. It was an incred-
ible goal.
McMahon had some big moments
of her own, making two huge saves in
the final nine minutes of the first half
as the Cardinals maintained their lead.
Verona had another terrific chance
in the 61st minute, but McMahon
turned Wildcats junior forward Ariana
Makuch away.
For the most part, though,
Middletons defenders and
McMahon limited the Wildcats
chances.
I think we did a good job of deal-
ing with a ton of adversity throughout
the game, McMahon said. Our
defense is just so strong and usually
theyre able to cut off a lot of shots
that normally do happen. I like those
kinds of games.
Middleton, the No. 2 seed in its
regional, now travels to top-seeded
Madison West Thursday at 7 p.m. The
winner meets either Kettle Moraine or
Sun Prairie in a sectional final at
Kettle Moraine Saturday at 6:30 p.m.
First up, though, is a West team that
edged Middleton, 1-0, in overtime
during the regular season.
Its going to be brutally physical
and intense, Duffy said. But we
have been getting better as weve fin-
ished the season. I like where were
at.
Middleton 7, Beloit Memorial 0
The Cardinals led just 1-0 at half-
time. But Middleton blew the doors
off with a six-goal second half and
routed the Purple Knights in a regional
semifinal last Thursday.
Jesse led the way with two goals
and added two assists. Middleton had
three second half goals in a five-
minute span.

Time and time again, they were
expected to wilt.
To succumb to the higher seed and
go quietly into the night.
But Brian Bellissimo and Xavier
Sanga didnt like that blueprint. So
Middletons tennis standouts tore it up
and made themselves a new one.
Bellissimo and Sanga who
entered the WIAA Division 1 state ten-
nis tournament unseeded had a
weekend to remember. Middletons duo
defeated three teams seeded in the top-
10 and stormed to a sixth place finish.
We were really happy to be there
and we just played really loose, said
Sanga, a freshman. The whole time we
played good solid tennis, and some
great things happened.
Bellissimo agreed.
We were playing loose and just
having a lot of fun, said Bellissimo, a
sophomore who played singles a year
ago. And as we kept winning, our con-
fidence kept going up and up.
It was a great weekend for two
Middleton doubles teams.
Seniors Evan Stone and Joey Niesen
who are actually Middletons No. 1
doubles team reached the state quar-
terfinals before losing both there and in
the consolation bracket.
Overall, Im really proud of our-
selves, Niesen said. Weve been real-
ly good friends since sophomore year,
and this is a great way to go out.
Stone wasnt quite as happy as his
pal.
We did OK, but I think we could
have done better, Stone said. We
played some really good teams, but I
think it could have been even better.
Things couldnt have gone much
better for Sanga and Bellissimo.
Middletons pair entered the tourna-
ment with an 8-1 record and rolled to a
6-0, 6-0 win over Waukesha Souths
Danny Perez and Al Tejeda in a first
round match Thursday.
The Cardinals duo then met
Brookfield Easts Jimmy Engelhart and
Tim Langlois the tournaments No. 7
seed on Friday. But Bellissimo and
Sanga proved seedings dont mean
much and cruised to a 7-6, 6-0 win.
I just think after that first set, they
collapsed mentally, Sanga said of the
East duo. And we kept playing good
tennis.
They didnt stop either.
In the round of 16, Sanga and
Bellissimo rolled to a 6-3, 6-4 win over
10th seeded Aaron Kubiak and Alan
Desai of Neenah.
That was a really good match,
Bellissimo said. Neenahs guys were
really good.
Sanga and Bellissimo ran into trou-
ble, though, in the quarterfinals.
Marquettes brother tandem of Austin
Budiono and Ethan Budiono the
tournaments No. 2 seed rolled past
the Middleton pair, 6-1, 6-1.
Those guys were like machines,
Bellissimo said. They just didnt make
any mistakes.
Bellissimo and Sanga moved to the
consolation bracket, where they met
Homesteads Chase Gabriel and Jason
Jesse the tournaments No. 6 seed.
Once again, Bellissimo and Sanga
showed their mettle and notched a 7-6
(6), 2-6, 7-6 (5) win.
Middletons duo trailed, 5-3, in the
third set. But they battled back and
eventually won the match in a tiebreak-
er.
I just think we showed how mental-
ly tough we are, Bellissimo said. We

were never out of it.
Middletons pair then lost to Eau
Claire Memorials Peter Rentzepis and
Matt Lindsay, 6-2, 6-1, in the fifth place
match. But the three-day run was some-
thing Bellissimo and Sanga will never
forget.
I just think we were really consis-
tent, Sanga said. It isnt that we do a
lot of special stuff.
It was just really cool to be here.
We had so much fun.
Stone and Niesen the tourna-
ments No. 8 seed had a ton of fun,
too.
After Niesen and Stone had a first
round bye, they rolled past Neenahs
Alec Becker and Grant Mauthe, 6-3, 6-
0, Friday morning.
That set up a matchup against ninth-
seeded Brandon Hamm and Aron
Kumbalek of Oshkosh North. After
dropping the first set, Niesen and Stone
rallied for a 6-7 (4), 6-4, 6-2 win in a
match that took nearly three hours.
I think we underestimated that
team, Stone said. We didnt really
think they were that good. But they
came out with guns a blazing and were
really impressive.
But Middleton was equally impres-
sive rallying back.
Id say about halfway through that
first set the momentum started turning,
Niesen said. And once they lost their
momentum, I think they were stunned
we could come back.
The grueling match took a lot out of
the Cardinals, though.
Middleton next faced Homesteads
Will Kammerait and Aaron Rempel, the
tournaments top seed. Niesen battled
cramps throughout, and the previous
match took a toll on both players as
Homestead prevailed, 6-2, 7-5.
We only had a half hour between
matches and that was really disappoint-
ing, Niesen said. I thought we battled
hard and made them work. But it was a
tough match.
Niesen and Stone moved to the con-
solation bracket, where they fell to Eau
Claire Memorials Lindsay and
Rentzepis, 6-3, 7-5, Saturday.
Still, it was a terrific run for both
Middleton doubles teams.
It was pretty great to have us both
still going, Niesen said. It was a lot of
fun.
If its going to be one-and-done for
Jake Van Emburgh, this isnt what he
envisioned.
Middletons freshman tennis phe-
nom had one thought on his mind
heading into the WIAA Division 1
state tennis meet: winning a title.
Van Emburghs quest fell short,
though, when he lost to Brookfield
East sophomore David Horneffer, 6-4,
3-6, 6-4 in the state semifinals last
Saturday.
Van Emburgh bounced back and
toppled Homesteads Danny Coran, 6-
2, 6-2 in the third place match.
Meanwhile, defending state champion
Felix Corwin defeated Horneffer
his teammate for the state title, 6-3,
6-3.
Having beaten (Horneffer) so
many times in a row, I overlooked the
player he was a little bit, Van
Emburgh admitted afterwards. On
top of that I was not 100 percent
healthy during that match things I
would rather not discuss.
Van Emburgh was trying to
become the first state champion in
Middleton history, and things certain-
ly started well. After Van Emburgh
received a first round bye, he rolled
past Marquette freshman Caleb
Schifano, 6-0, 6-0, on Friday morning.
Before Friday ended, Van Emburgh
also defeated Wausau Wests Sean
Bailey, 6-1, 6-1, and Nicolets Calin
Dumitrescu, 6-0, 7-5.
Things were far more difficult
against Horneffer, though, as the two
baseliners wowed the crowd with a
stream of lengthy, precise points.
Van Emburgh failed to hold serve
on his first two chances and fell into a
3-1 hole in the first set. The two both
held serve from there, and Horneffer
served for the set at 5-4.
With the critical game at 30-all,
Horneffer won the next point and Van
Emburgh threw his racket. Van
Emburgh was issued a point code vio-
lation, giving Horneffer the game and
first set.
Van Emburgh bounced back to win
the second set, 6-3. And the two
stayed on serve the entire third set,
with Horneffer taking a 5-4 lead.
Van Emburgh then needed to hold
serve to stay in the match. But Van
Emburgh fell behind, 30-40, and on
match point, he double faulted.
Still, Van Emburgh completed one
of the finest seasons in school history
with a 24-2 record.
David played immensely well and
I had plenty of opportunities I did not
take advantage of, Van Emburgh
said. Those opportunities most likely
lost me the match, but I have to move
on past it and settle for third.
Thats exactly what Van Emburgh
did, as he rolled past Coran in the third
place match. Van Emburgh admitted,
though, that was a tough match to
play.
When playing for third and fourth,
I was only thinking about the prior
match, he said. I beat Danny pretty
handily and did the time before. I was-
nt worried about that match. I know
Danny had some ankle problems
along the way and credit to him for
coming out and competing.
The question now becomes if Van
Emburgh return in 2015. A standout
USTA player and one of the top-
ranked freshmen in the country, Van
Emburgh must weigh whether hell
benefit more from playing for
Middleton or on the USTA circuit.
Im really glad I did high school
tennis, Van Emburgh said before
state. But I dont know about next
year or the other years.
Ive missed a lot of national tour-
naments (this spring) and thats hurt
by ranking. It would probably be
tough to come back and do high
school again.
Middleton senior Ben Luskin also
competed at state.
The Cardinals No. 2 singles player
defeated Waunakees Joey Schneider,
6-2, 6-1, in his first round match.
But Luskin fell in the second round
to Eau Claire Memorials Kyle
Wogahn, 6-4, 6-1.
Van Emburgh
settles for third
Freshman star
enjoys big year
by ROB REISCHEL
Times-Tribune
Middleton freshman Jake Van Emburgh finished third at state last weekend.
There was an element of mystery
and secrecy.
Middletons Home Talent League
team wasnt sure what to expect from
a youthful Waunakee squad Sunday.
As it turns out, Middleton had little
to worry about.
Middleton scored three first inning
runs, never looked back, and whipped
Waunakee, 9-1.
Middleton and Black Earth now
lead the Northern Sections East
Division with 6-1 records. Ashton is in
third place at 5-1, while Cross Plains
is fourth (5-2).
We really werent sure what to
expect out of Waunakee, Middleton
manager Brandon Hellenbrand said.
They are a younger team than in the
past and have some new players.
Everyone was ready to play, top to
bottom. It was a really nice team
win.
Drew Farrell worked six strong
innings and got the win for Middleton.
Farrell allowed just one hit and struck
out two.
Andrew Zimmerman threw the
final three innings, allowing one
unearned run while only giving up
three hits.
Drew threw one of his best games
yet, Hellenbrand said. He did a nice
job of mixing his pitches up and was
able to keep them off balance. He only
gave up the one hit, but we wanted to
limit his innings with it being early in
the season. Zimmerman did a nice job
in relief of throwing strikes and shut-
ting the door.
Middleton grabbed a quick 3-0 lead
in the first inning.
Brandon Scheidler was hit by a
pitch, Eric Simon singled and Kevin
Dubler followed with an RBI single.
With one out, Zimmerman hit a short
sacrifice fly to right field that scored
Simon. Mike Brabender followed with
a single to left to score Dubler.
Middleton made it 4-0 in the third.
Kevin Dubler doubled to right-center
field with one out, and advanced to
third on a deep fly ball by Josh
Hinson. Zimmerman then singled to
score Dubler.
Middleton scored twice in the
fourth to make it 6-0.
A.J. Redders led off the frame with
a single, Scott Brabender walked and
Scheidler was hit by a pitch to load the
bases. Simon then hit into a fielders
choice to score Redders. Waunakee
tried turning a double play, but threw
it away which allowed Brabender to
score as well.
Middleton then added three more
in the fifth.
Cole Cook had a one-out single,
and Redders walked. Scott Brabender
followed with an RBI single to score
Cook, then Scheidler followed with a
two-run double to left.
Scheidler and Zimmerman both
finished with two RBI, while Dubler
and Mike Brabender each had two
hits.
On deck: Middleton is at Lodi
Sunday at 1 p.m. Lodi plays its game

Middleton rolls
past Waunakee

Times-Tribune
Middletons boys lacrosse team
finished the regular season in style.
The Cardinals defeated Verona, 8-
7, in overtime on May 23. Middleton
also bested Janesville, 10-9, on May
29.
Against Verona, Declan Whinnery
scored the game-winning goal on a
nifty feed from Ryan Dohmeier.
Our players knew what was at
stake against Verona, Middleton
coach Matthew Bock said. Its
always been a battle between these
two teams, and everyone contributed
to our eventual overtime victory.
Middleton built a 4-1 lead against
Janesville and stayed ahead most of
the game. But Janesville battled back
to tie things, 8-8, before the Cardinals
answered with two straight goals to
regain a 10-8 advantage.
Janesville pulled within 10-9 with
two minutes left. But stellar goaltend-
ing by Middletons Tyler Dohmeier
helped the Cardinals escape on Senior
Night.
Coming off a big win against
Verona, we needed to prove that we
could continue this success, Bock
said. A number of great saves by
Tyler Dohmeier and a strong defen-
sive push allowed us to lock down
their offense and secure the win.
Girls lacrosse: Middletons girls
lacrosse team recently wrapped up a
magnificent May.
After going 0-4 in April, the
Cardinals went 6-2 in May and ended
the regular season 6-6.
Middleton tied for third place in the
Madison Area Lacrosse Area (MALA)
and is ranked 10th overall for the
upcoming Wisconsin Lacrosse
Federation tournament.
Middleton capped the regular sea-
son with an 11-9 win over Waunakee
on May 22, and a 16-15 win over
Oregon on May 29.
Riley Peters led the Cardinals with
four goals against Waunakee, while
Abby Drake added two goals.
Against Oregon, Abby Hudson,
Peters and Drake all had four goals.
Postseason awards were also
recently distributed.
Middletons Anne Gravel was
named MALAs Coach of the Year,
while Laura Oberwetter was named a
first-team all-conference defenseman.
Emily Oberwetter (defense), Lucy
Bergenthal (midfield) and Drake
(attacker) all received second-team
all-conference honors.
Lacrosse teams
close strong
coach Isaac Mezera said. We
brought a huge crew, making this fin-
ish a true team effort.
Kimberly won the title with 57
points, while Wisconsin Lutheran
(47), West Bend West (38), Racine
Park (37) and Middleton (34.50)
rounded out the top five. The meet
was delayed for more that two hours
Friday and six more on Saturday
because of heavy rains and lightning.
This weekend was amazing to
say the least, Winters said. I cant
explain how happy I was to experi-
ence this weekend with the team.
It was pretty exciting, too, for
Middletons faithful to watch
Winters perform.
The meets marquee event is
and always has been the 100-
meter dash. Winters was in third
place after the preliminaries, then
cranked it up during the finals.
In the championship race, Winters
posted a winning time of 10.83 sec-
onds and edged Kimberlys Weston
Guilfoyle (10.85) for the title.
Menomonee Falls Christian
Almonte (10.94) and Racine Parks
Jeremy Steward (10.96) were a close
third and fourth, respectively.
The 100 meters is something I
worked extremely hard for, Winters
said. But having a team that pushed
and encouraged me these four years
really helped me succeed and I
wouldnt have done it with out
them.
Winters also starred in the 200,
where he finished third in 22.03 sec-
onds. Racine Parks Steward won the
race in 21.67 seconds.
The 200 was great even though I
got third, Winters said. I had to be
mindful that top-three is still great
and Jeremy Steward is a respectful
athlete, so I was happy for him.
Middletons 400-meter relay team
also put on a show.
Juniors Alex Wood, Noah Meeteer
and Nnamdi Okoli ran the first three
legs of the race, and Winters finished
things off. Middletons foursome fin-
ished the race in 42.30, just behind
the championship team from Racine
Park (42.07).
The 400 is a team of the best ath-
letes I know, Winters said. Alex,
Noah, and Nnamdi all have different
styles to their running and when you
put it all together its dangerous. So
watch out for them next year because
I know theyre hungry for the gold.
Afterwards, Mezera and the rest
of the Cardinals knew just how vital
Winters was to their thrilling week-
end and their memorable season.
Ernest has meant so much to this
team this season, Mezera said.
From helping our younger varsity
athletes to leading the team cheer at
practice and before meets, Ernest has
been our dynamo. He will be missed
next season, but I know his impact
will be far reaching.
Middletons Keeler, a senior who
was third in the high jump last year,
was also hungry for gold. And Keeler
almost brought it home before set-
tling for second.
Kaukaunas Trent Nytes won the
event with a leap of 6-7 and edged
Keeler by one inch for the title.
Keelers stellar jump came on his
final attempt, making it quite dra-
matic.
I am very happy with 6-6,
Keeler said. I think I could have had
another jump in me, but sometimes it
just doesnt go your way. Since I fin-
ished third last year, Im glad I could
better that place and help my team
out in overall points.
Mezera was also thrilled to see
Keeler jump a spot from last season.
I was happy to see Andy finish a
spot higher than last year, Mezera
said. He handled the pressure and
high expectations well, performing
when it counted.
Several other Middleton partici-
pants enjoyed successful weekends.
They included:
team of junior Roger Waleffe, junior
Zach Shoemaker-Allen, sophomore
Josh Arandia and sophomore Perrin
Haage were seventh (7:52.88).
That time was less than 0.2 sec-
onds away from breaking the old
school mark set last season
(7:52.69).
team of Wood, senior R.J. Pertzborn,
Hagge and junior Travis Zander was
14th (3:24.89).
Our relays are young, and once
the guys have tasted state, they defi-
nitely want to go back, Mezera said.
Im excited for Travis, Josh, Zach,
Roger, Alex, Noah, Nnamdi, and
Perrin. I hope the weekend is some-
thing we can repeat next season.
Senior Parker Johnson tied for
eighth in the pole vault (13-6).
Parker kept his cool when vault
was moved indoors, Mezera said.
He scored points for us at state, and
while it wasnt the height he was
hoping for, Im so proud of him.
Hagge finished 10th in the 800
meter run (1:55.12).
Perrin turned in his strongest
performance of the season at state,
Mezera said. What he has accom-
plished already is impressive, and I
know the team is excited to see
where they can go together with him
the next two years.
Senior Tanner Rahman was 16th
in the discus (151-5).
I know Tanner had high hopes
for the state meet in his return per-
formance, Mezera said.
Unfortunately, he didnt have that
(personal record) throw in him. I
know hes proud of all he has accom-
plished this season and excited to
compete at (UW-La Crosse) next
year.
Zander finished 18th in the 400
meter dash (50.56).
and senior Hans Kunsch was
22nd in the 300-meter hurdles
(43.86).
It was a very successful week-
end, Keeler said.
Kenosha Tremper won the girls
title with 48 points, while Brookfield
East (40), Whitefish Bay (26), DePere
(25) and Milwaukee King (24) round-
ed out the top five.
Middleton tied for ninth with 20
points.
The meet was delayed more than
two hours Friday and six hours
Saturday due to rain and heavy winds.
But the Cardinals persevered and left
with a treasure chest of memories.
Everyone went out with some-
thing in mind that they wanted to
achieve and I think we conquered
expectations, Patrick said. Many of
us were tired after the weather delay,
but our team is so competitive. When
we went back outside it was time to
race.
No one was quite sure who would
race in the 3,200 relay for Middleton.
Foster and Valentine two of the
Cardinals elite distance runners
battled through stress fractures the
second half of the season. But
Middletons remarkable depth and tal-
ent allowed it to advance through
regionals and sectionals.
At state, Middletons Fab Four
was back together and the results were
sublime.
Middleton was seeded 12th, which
placed it in the far outside lane. But
Wians got off to a terrific start and put
her team in position to challenge.
I knew I was going to have to get
out fast if we wanted to challenge for
the podium, Wians said. The first
leg is always very compact making the
handoff from first to second difficult,
so I knew I had to be aggressive get-
ting out to get us a good position to
work with the rest of the race.
Foster and Valentine gave gutty
performances and kept the Cardinals
near the front of the pack. Then
Patrick held off West Bend Wests
Erica Wanie for second as Middleton
notched a remarkably impressive run-
ner-up finish.
My teammates got us into a great
position, Patrick said. I felt strong,
and finishing second was an accom-
plishment that we were very proud of
especially since half our team was
running on stress fractures.
Wians agreed.
We knew that race was going to be
up in the air and being seeded in the
outermost lane definitely gave us
motivation to prove something,
Wians said. At the beginning of the
season, our goal was podium and in
the back of our minds getting a school
record was a dream. Getting both of
those goals was unbelievable and I
cant think of a better bunch of girls to
do it with.
team was just as impressive. The
Cardinals foursome finished the race
in 3:57.29, behind only a West Bend
West foursome (3:56.13).
Anderson-Smith got the Cardinals
started and Zeker ran second. Docter
was third and Patrick closed in style.
The 1,600 meter relay was an
event to remember, Patrick said.
Our time wasnt a (personal-record),
but we all went out there and did our
best after a long day and an unexpect-
ed rain delay. To run the time we ran
and get second in the state was very
exciting.
The rest of the weekend was awful-
ly exciting, too. And other Middleton
finishes included:
Middletons 400-meter relay team
that consisted of junior Olivia
Roberts, Docter, freshman Rachel
Zander and sophomore Lauren Smith
was fifth (49.28).
The Cardinals 800-meter relay
team of Smith, Roberts, Anderson-
Smith and Docter was ninth (1:44.24).
Patrick placed ninth in the 800,
finishing the race in 2:18.56.
Wians was 12th in the 1,600
(5:06.00).
Smith was 14th in the 100-meter
hurdles (15.95).
Senior Kayla Bauhs was 15th in
the 300-meter hurdles (47.06).
and sophomore Kiara Cruz was
21st in the shot put (34-3).
State track is hands down my
favorite weekend out of the whole
year, Wians said. Finishing top 10 in
the state as a team was just icing on
the cake.

With ace Kasey Miller laboring on
the mound, Middletons baseball team
needed to step it up offensively.
And, boy, did it ever.
The Cardinals banged out 16 hits
and used an eight-run third inning to
overwhelm Waunakee 14-4 in five
innings in a WIAA Division 1 regional
final in Middleton Thursday.
One through nine were such a
solid team, Miller said. Weve been
waiting for a game like this. Just for us
to break out and everyone put it all
together in one game was nice.
Miller wasnt feeling well from the
get-go and he struggled on the mound,
allowing four runs on four hits with a
pair of walks in just three innings of
work.
Walking out for the second
(inning) my stomach kind of turned
and, even in the warmups, you could
tell it wasnt on, Miller said.
Miller eventually gave way to lefty
Garrett Knutson and Knutson held the
Warriors (12-13) scoreless over the
final two innings.
(Miller) was a little under the
weather. He was honest with himself
and his teammates and he just didnt
have it and he had confidence to hand
the ball to Garrett, said Middleton
manager Tom Schmitt. We had confi-
dence in Garrett too and Garrett mixed
well and we knew that could keep
those guys off balance. They were hit-
ting Kaseys fastball and not getting
great swings on his breaking ball, so it
was good to have Garrett behind him
ready to come with good off-speed
pitches.
For all of his struggles on the
mound, Miller didnt seem fazed at
the plate as he went 3-for-3 with a
walk and knocked in Matt Ash with a
sharp single to end the game helping
Middleton (19-8 overall) atone for last
seasons playoff loss to Waunakee.
I felt just relaxed up there, Miller
said. I wasnt trying to do too much,
just meet the ball, work the count and
got some pitches I could drive.
Millers performance reminded
Schmitt of others who have come
through in similar situations.
A lot of times when people are
feeling under the weather thats when
they perform the best, Schmitt said.
We wont hope he gets sick every
day, but hes a senior and he under-
stands that we ended our season short
of Appleton last year against this team
and maybe that gave him a little extra
fire in the belly to work through it and
help us how he could. He couldnt do
it on the mound, so he did it another
way.
The score was deadlocked, 4-4,
when Middleton broke it open in the
bottom of the third inning.
Middleton loaded the bases with
nobody out when Jordan Lueck and
Joe Ludwig were hit by pitches and
Ash walked. Leadoff hitter Jackson
Keeler followed with a solid RBI sin-
gle to left. Luke Schafer then drilled a
3-2 pitch just inside the third-base line
for a two-run double to chase pitcher
Hunter Hellenbrand.
In came pitcher A.J. Johnson who
promptly struck out Alex Elliot. Miller
then greeted Johnson with a single to
right scoring Keeler and making it an
8-4 game.
Zach Kasdorf made it 10-4 with a
two-run single up the middle, and con-
secutive singles by Elliot Tanin and
Lueck loaded the bases again. Kasdorf
was then forced out at home on a
bouncer to third by Ludwig bringing
up Ash the Cardinals No. 9 hitter
with two outs.
Ash quickly fell behind 0-2, but
worked the count to 3-2 while fouling
off a pair of pitches. Ash then deliv-
ered a clutch two-run single to center
scoring Tanin and Lueck. Ludwig was
thrown out at third attempting to take
an extra base, but the damage had
been done.
Middleton sent 13 batters to the
plate in the inning and collected seven
hits.
Boy do they hit the ball,
Waunakee manager Spencer Lee said
of the Cardinals. Anything we threw
they hit it. When a team gets 16 hits in
a five-inning game like that, you just
tip your hat because they just had
great at-bat after great at-bat. They put
a lot of pressure on you that way and
they were just hot.
Middleton finished the Warriors off
in the fifth. Lueck beat out an infield
single, and after Brennan Maly
popped out, Ash reached when his
grounder took a bad hop over second
baseman Dillon Haasls head.
Keeler followed with a single to
right to score Lueck, giving Middleton
a 13-4 lead and putting Waunakee on
the brink of the 10-run mercy rule.
Schafer popped out for the second out,
but Elliot followed by ripping a single
and Miller ended it with his run-scor-
ing single.
Its really been the last couple
days of batting practice, said Schafer,
who will play for Iowa next season.
We went through our order yesterday
in batting practice, and our order 1
through 9 it was just ropes after ropes
and I think we came in really confi-
dent.
Schafer went 2-for-4 at the plate
with four RBI and two doubles, the
only extra-base hits for Middleton.
I made an adjustment the last
week in my stance and started seeing
the ball a little better with that stance,
Schafer said. Tonight, I just got a
couple brand of the barrel, hit the ball
hard and was lucky guys were on base
for me to get them in. It sparked us.
Tanin opened Middletons scoring
with a run-scoring single in the first
inning. In the second inning, Schafer
had a two-run double and Elliot sin-
gled to score Schafer.
Schafer, Miller, Keeler, Elliot,
Kasdorf, Tanin, Lueck and Ash all col-
lected multiple hits in the game.
Michael Larson went 2-for-2 at the
plate with an RBI to lead Waunakee,
which collected four hits.
Our guys were just really ready to
play today and they competed, but
Middleton just overwhelmed us with
the way they swung the bats. They
were just unstoppable, said Lee,
whose team had to replace nine
starters from last years team. When
a team just goes up and swings the bat
like that, all the scouting reports and
nothing like that really matters
because they were just hitting it, hit-
ting it, hitting it.
Middleton rolls at regionals
Cardinals cruise
past Waunakee
by GREGG HAMMILL
For the Times-Tribune
Middletons Alex Elliott gets a word of advice from first base coach Eric
Simon.
Cardinals moved on to the section-
al finals.
I just wanted to get out there and
compete, Miller said. The last game
I wasnt feeling too hot and had to
come out in the third. It was definitely
nice to feel better and to have good,
solid defense behind me. That helped
out tremendously.
Added Keeler: (Kasey) was excel-
lent. He had his best stuff. Against
Waunakee in the first round, he had
good stuff but he just got sick. He
brought the same mentality out
tonight and shut them down. They
couldnt touch him.
Middleton continued to roll in the
sectional final.
Elliott had three hits, while Zach
Kasdorf added two hits and Jordan
Lueck had two RBIs for Middleton.
The Cardinals built a 7-0 lead, high-
lighted by a four-run fifth.
Garrett Knudtson scattered seven
hits and tossed a complete game.
I wanted to prove myself as a
pitcher, Knudtson said. It was nice
to play in a game that really meant
something, not just a regular season
game.
Schmitt was just as happy for
Knudtson and his entire team.
(Garrett) had been hit hard by
some good hitting teams, Schmitt
said. You know at sectional finals,
youre going to see good hitting
teams.
For him to go out and compete
and mix pitches with his off-speed and
his fastball, he did a good job of locat-
ing. When you have confidence and
buy into what you do, its easier for
you to execute and he was in tune.
And now the Cardinals will be
singing that tune all the way to state.
