and kick off the Friends of the Performing Arts Centers new season, on Saturday, October 8. Tickets can be purchased at the
Middleton Community Bank 3207 Parmenter Street in Middleton or online at friendspac.org.

The Friends of the Middleton


Performing Arts Center are

8 at 7:30 p.m. with A Musical
Tribute to John Denver, staring
Ted Vigil.
The legendary John Denver
evokes memories of an era in
music which was both inspiring
and influential. His music was
a combination of romance
Annies Song; folk Leavin on
a Jet Plane country Thank
God Im a Country Boy; and
environmentalist Calypso. He
recorded nearly 300 songs, 200
of which he composed, which
led to 12 gold and 4 platinum
albums; he was also awarded an
Emmy and two Grammys. he
was a brilliant song writer and a
truly gifted performer.
And his music lives on.
Ted Vigil, a man who closely
resembles John both physically
and musically, is carrying on the
tradition honoring this colossal
music icon. We are honored to
the great compositions and hits
of John Denver here in Middleton.
Ted, a Celebrity LookAlike contest winner, is not an

impersonator, but rather sings a


tribute to this great man. People
miss John Denver; Ted Vigil is
doing his best to pay homage.
His gift for the music and polished and energetic performing
style presents a warm and delightful evening through some
of the worlds most popular
music.
Ted had been writing, recording and performing his original
compositions, leading to winning the national title for Talent
Quest in Laughlin, Nevada in
2006. After this win Ted began
to plan a John Denver Tribute
show. He began singing his
way all over the U.S. and on the
Royal Caribbean Cruise Line.
Ted Vigils Rocky Mountain
High is, indeed a high! His audiences warm to him instantly
as they once again enjoy the
music the world grew to love;
they walk out of concerts feeling refreshed and joyous from
the experience.
Tickets have been selling
quickly, but are still available.

A helping hand for Haiti


The second annual Play it Forward, a fundraiser for the Fond
Blanc Orphanage in Haiti, will
take place Sunday, October 2
from2-5 p.m.at Keva Sports Center in Middleton. It is a family
friendly event, with Bucky Badger,
many UW athletes, a silent auction
(with excellent items), games, a
dunk tank, face painting and much
more. 100 percent of the proceeds
go to the school in Fond Blanc,
Haiti.

by MATT GEIGER
Times-Tribune

Since January, an American


missionary team composed of
Spencer Pursley, of Atlanta, and
Olivia Bunz, of Middleton, has
been living in Fond Blanc,
Haiti, implementing and conducting the mission statement
of the Fond Blanc Foundation.
The Fond Blanc Foundation
is non-profit run out of the
Good Neighbor City. It aims to
support the children and the village of Fond Blanc, particularly
the school there.
On Sunday, everyone in Middleton can join in and help give
Haitian children the chance to
get an education.
Bunz, the foundations director of operations, paints a pow-

erful picture of the situation in


Haiti.
Picture this: youre driving
down a bumpy mountain road
in the back of a rickety, open-air
bus, on the side of a cliff, and
you pass a man tending to his
sheep, and you realize he is
wearing a t-shirt from your old
high school, said Bunz.
Or maybe youre walking
through some remote village in
a developing nation, and two little boys go running by you,
chasing a ball made out of
socks, wearing jerseys from the
club team you and your friends
grew up playing for, she continued.
Or better yet, she added,
imagine going to visit an orphanage and a school, and seeing all these perfectly happy
and healthy little kids running

around in their matching school


uniforms, some sitting under a
mango tree studying, others
jump-roping on the concrete
terrace out front, and deep down
in your heart, you know that all
of this was made possible because a community rallied together, and was able to fully
fund this school for an entire
year.
Bunz says she was lucky
enough, over the last year, to be
able to feel and experience all
of those incredible things.
Last year, local organizers
held the inaugural Play It Forward for Haiti event here in
Middleton to raise money to
open the pre-kindergarten
through eleventh grade school
in the remote Haitian village of
Fond Blanc.
Prior to their involvement

with the orphanage of Fond


Blanc, the nearest school was
over a 45-minute walk away on
dirt roads.
Education in Haiti is a privilege and one that the government neither requires nor
supports, according to Tia
Bunz, Olivias mother and the
executive director of the organizations board of directors.
Most schools in Haiti are
privatized and a large number
of those are run by non-governmental agencies like ourselves,
she explained. When we set
out to support this village, we
knew that once we were able to
complete the triage portion of
our mandate [including a]
health initiative, caretaking
[and] proper nutrition - we

Middleton-Cross Plains School District levy is down more than $1 million


Director of business services
Lori Ames said those calculations assume a two percent increase in property value for
homeowners in all eight municipalities that make up the district. That comes out to a 50
cent decrease for every $1,000
of residential property value,
she said.
If the property value increases are higher, the mill rate
can go down, Ames said.
Ames noted that the exact
numbers will vary by municipality and the districts official
numbers wont be available
until the final budget is adopted
byOct. 31.
The tax rate for the school
district has decreased six times
over the last 13 years. The mill
rate was $11.28 for every
$1,000 of residential property
value in the 2003-04 school
year. The projected mill rate for
2016-17 is $11.13, which is
slightly above the state average
and below most districts in
Dane County.
Yu pointed out that the
budget is based on an enrollment increase of approximately
140 students. The final enroll-

needed to focus on getting these


children an education.
The school educates children
who live at the orphanage, as
well as those who live elsewhere in the village.
On any given day, you can
see over 160 children coming in
and out of the school to receive
their education, said Tia. Our
facilities are still primitive, we
are lacking space and proper
classrooms, desks, chairs [and]
blackboards, but for now, we
stagger the school day so we
can educate all of the children at
different levels.
They hope to one day provide a first world setting for
the kids, but for now, we will
make due with our archaic
school as long as the children
are being taught properly, said
Tia.
In America, we take for
granted our childrens requirement by our government to a
free education, said Tia. Our
education system in the
[United] States is remarkable
compared to most other countries and certainly developing
nations. Here there is always so
much conversation about
schooling, programs, mandated

annual meeting last week.


The three resolutions included a resolution to levy a tax
for adding to the capital fund.
The fund, which is used for
maintenance, will increase
$25,000 to $950,000 this fiscal
year. Also a resolution for the
adoption of tax levy of

tests - but what most do not realize, that it is a gift. A huge


gift!
Tia says American children
leave high school with countless options before them including jobs, continuing education
and more.
For many Haitian children,
that sounds more like a fantasy
than reality.
For us to provide any kind
of hope or future for these children, we knew that our priority,
beyond their health and wellbeing, was education, Tia said.
In Haiti, less than 15 percent of
people have a high school
diploma. Our goal is for every
one of these students to be a
part of that number so they have
options and hope.
Middleton and the surrounding communities have always
been a remarkable resource for
the Fond Blanc Foundation, according to organizers of the
Play it Forward events.
Middletonians were vital in
donating for the initial health
initiative in the village. They
helped clothe and put shoes on
the children. They provided
books, school supplies, games
and toys as well.

$66,000,321 for the 2016-17


fiscal year, which is more than
$1 million less than the 2015-16
levy. And a resolution for the
adoption of school board
salaries for 2016-17. President
Bob Green will receive $4,200
and the other eight board members will receive $3,600.

We have had exceptional


partnerships with Little Red
Preschool, which has provided
us with childrens books, clothing, school supplies, musical instruments, said Tia. We have
had churches support our medical and musical campaigns.
The FIGI house at UW-Madison helped us raise money for
our new Sustainability Project
in building chicken coops and
vegetable gardens.
She went on to say the local
community has shown a
tremendous amount of love and
support for these children.
Last years inaugural Play it
Forward raised $34,000, which
enabled the foundation to open
the school with certified and
trained teachers brought in from
Port Au Prince. A principle and
administrator were hired, the
children had new books for the
first time. School uniforms were
purchased for every child.
We even had Landon Donovan, the captain of the US
Mens Soccer Team, sponsor
our new soccer team with new
uniforms kits and shoes, said
Tia. It was truly remarkable
and amazing. All because our
community came out to help.

School board treasurer Linda


Yu gave a budget presentation
at the meeting. She explained
that the tax levy will likely decrease by 2.34 percent and in
turn will decrease the mill rate
by 4.3 percent. She said 82 percent of expenditures are on
salaries and benefits.

Town board gives final approval


to Daybreak Valley subdivision
by KEVIN MURPHY
Times-Tribune

The Middleton Town Board


gave final approval Monday to
a 41-lot residential subdivision
that has had contentious road
issues right up until the end.
Although residents have opposed road plans for Veridian
Homes 56.5-acre Daybreak
Valley development on the
towns north side the development does contribute $90,000 in
park fees. It also adds $15 million to $20 million to the tax
base at full build out.
It reconstructs Koch Road,
adds a shoulder to Bronner
Roads west side and expands
the cul-de-sac bulb at Voesen
Roads southern end.

alignments that would improve
safety and be manageable for

road plan that made Sunset

subdivision.

residents who said turning Sun-

Lastly, it contributes $10,000

However, the development
also extends Sunset Ridge
Drive east from Voesen Road to
Bronner Road, a board decision
that some residents are challenging in Dane County Circuit
Court.
Also, on Thursday of last
week Veridian Homes requested
a variance from having to bring
adjacent portions of Koch and
Bronner roads into compliance
with town road construction
standards for shoulder and
pavement width.
Town regulations require the

On the same day, Kenneth

Koch roads were found to be
less than the current 22 foot
width standard when measured
by John Haverberg, a retired
Dept. of Transportation chief

nearby resident.
However, town engineer Rod
Zubella said it was debatable if
the variance was needed. Bronner and Koch roads were resurfaced within the past five years
and do not require resurfacing
now. Instead of spending Veridians money to widen those
roads, Voesen Road could be

After the meeting, Haverberg

go through the variance process
before approving the subdivision.
Veridian is not going to have
to pay to bring 1,600 feet Bronner Road up to standard but
the ordinance says they should,

Haverberg also questioned
that justification, saying that
only Koch and Bronner roads
are substandard as Voesen Road
meets town pavement and
shoulder width requirements.
While Veridian claimed that
the vast majority of the towns
remaining substandard roads
are Koch and Bronner roads,
Haverberg said he finds that
simply not true.
Veridian Homes plans to
have several homes constructed

along with some internal roadwork and additional home construction.

Public health officials urge people to get flu vaccine


Last season in Dane County
there were 425 flu-related hospitalizations.
The flu season traditionally
begins in early October and
vaccinations are currently available at local clinics, pharmacies
and some work places. Public
Health Madison & Dane
County (PHMDC) also offers
free vaccines for children and

adults without health insurance.


We are encouraging people
to take advantage of the early
arrival of the vaccines to get
vaccinated now, says Diane
McHugh, PHMDC Immunization coordinator. It takes about
2 weeks after the flu shot for
protection to set in, so its better
to get the vaccine well before

the flu season begins.


Notable, is that the CDC
does not recommend the use of
the nasal spray form of the vaccine (FluMist) due topoor performance last season. While no
vaccine is 100 percent effective,
the benefits of the flu shot are
well documented. Studies show
that flu vaccination can reduce
flu illnesses; doctors visits,

missed work and school, as well


as help prevent flu-related hospitalizations.
This is why flu vaccine is
recommended for everyone six
months and older every year. It
not only protects individuals
from getting the flu, but also
protects others in the community, especially those who cannot be vaccinated for medical

reasons, those with compromised immune systems, and infants too young to get the
vaccine. The more people vaccinated, the less opportunity
there is to infect others.
McHugh counsels that the flu
can be a very serious and potentially life-threatening illness.
Young children, pregnant
women, people 65 and older

and people with certain medical


conditions, like asthma, diabetes or heart disease are particularly vulnerable.
Nationally, flu is responsible
for hundreds of thousands of
hospitalizations, and thousands
or sometimes tens of thousands
of deaths every year.
Visit www.cdc.gov for more
information.

Examining a paradigm shift in how churches work


Madison-based construction
firm NCI-Roberts and its Utahbased partner Building Gods
Way will host a free half-day
seminar for area church leaders
Thursday, October 6 at Blackhawk Church in Middleton.
Blackhawk Church is an apt
location, as the seminar will explore a paradigm shift in the
way churches are funded, designed, constructed and used.

Blackhawk is a well-known
local example of a new kind of
church that has experienced impressive growth.
The seminar, titled REAL
Church Buildings, will cover
solutions for creating a building
that can become a catalyst for
ministry growth through the integration of relevant architecture
and
technology,
economically sustainable building solutions, adaptable and
flexible spaces and linkage with
the community. Speakers include leadership coaches,
fundraising experts and church
architects. The event will run
from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
and includes a complimentary
lunch.
Attendees will also hear from
Robin Roberts, who has been
involved in the construction of
more than 170 area churches
including Blackhawk since he
founded Roberts Construction
in 1981. He is the director of
client services for NCI-Roberts,
the companys name since it became a division of Blue
Mounds-based builder JG Development. Roberts built the
Blackhawk church on Brader
Way in 2007, as well as the
original church on Whitney
Way in 1987 and its expansion
in 1997.
NCI-Roberts partnered with
Building Gods Way in 2014 to
provide more robust construction options to Wisconsin
churches and Christian schools.
Building Gods Way offers
unique Christian-based archi-

tecture,
audiovisual
and
fundraising resources, as well as
access to discounted building
supplies.
Area church leaders, key
members and staff are all welcome. For more information or
to register visit www.bgwservices.com/seminar or contact
NCI-Roberts at 608-237-0500.

Rotarians visit local conservancy

On Tuesday, September 16 Madison-West Town-Middleton Rotarians were treated to a delightful lunchtime history of a local
treasure: Pope Farm Conservancy. Mel Pope, son of the grounds founder, Art Pope, a former animal science professor at the
University of Wisconsin, gave a brief history of the sacred land, speaking about native trails winding from Lake Mendota into
Middleton, and all the way up to today, when carloads of families come out each summer to see thousands of colorful sunflowers.
Pope Farm Conservancy is 105 acres that sits on top of three recessional moraines in the Town of Middleton, Wisconsin, where
three different watersheds come together. A 360 degree panoramic view of Lake Mendota, the Capitol and Madisons west side
can be seen to the east, the Black Earth Creek valley to the North, and the terminal moraine to the South and West. Rotarians
are anxious to come back often, to enjoy the blissful views and quiet of this oasis. And they said they plan to Google Ted Kennedy
skiing at Blackhawk Ski area to learn about his 1960 campaign stop at this future park for brother John F. Kennedy.

Hodson, golfers steal the show


Middleton

tournament
by ROB REISCHEL
Times-Tribune

EVANSVILLE As the
snow fell last winter and temperatures hovered in the single
digits, Payton Hodson trekked
out to her garage most days.
And Middletons rapidly rising
golfer took swing after swing,
firing ball after ball into a net.
Glamorous? Far from.
Effective? You bet.
Hodson, one of the states
most improved golfers in 2016,
has seen her stock skyrocket in
the last 12 months. And the
blue-chipper took it to another
level last Thursday.
Hodson, a junior at MHS,
won the Big Eight Conference
tournament held at Evansville
Golf Course. Hodson fired a 3over-par 75 and helped
Middleton the states No. 1
ranked team cruise to the
team title.
The Cardinals shot a 326team score to easily outdistance runner-up Janesville
Parker (360) and Verona (366).
Personally,
capturing
medalist honors was absolutely
amazing and surreal, Hodson
said. Going into the confer-

Parker is a good team.
Theyre a big, physical team,

week vs Verona) was we made
some crucial plays tonight
that we didnt make last

One of those crucial plays
was a kickoff to open the second half.

Middletons boys volleyball team rolled past Fort


Atkinson, 25-16, 25-20, 25-7,
last Tuesday.
Cole Spitler led the
Cardinals with 18 kills and
two blocks, while Andrew
Lepage had 20 assists and 14
digs. Thomas Robson had 12
digs, Brian Vergenz had three
aces and Nick Zeinemann
added two blocks.
We went into Fort expecting them to be our top competition in the conference,
Middleton coach Ben White
said. They have a great outside hitter in senior Grayson
Coleman.
What we didn't know is
that both their top middle
(blocker) and their setter were
going to be out for our match.
It forced Fort to move
Grayson into the middle, and
due to our tough serving and
their poor passing, they
weren't able to get Grayson the
ball.
The Cardinals did a terrific
job getting Spitler going, and

he produced one of his better


matches of the year.
I moved things around like
I always do, as I want to get a
lot of players opportunities to
show what they can do in a
match situation, White said.
For the Fort match I had
Andrew and Cole work
together and Andrew fed the
ball to Cole 37 times on the
night.
We need (Cole) to be that
option with Eagan (PetersMichaud) to give us a 1-2
punch and then have Brian
(Vergenz) be that third option.
It's been a while since we've
had three very high performing options and hopefully we'll
continue to develop that.
After two somewhat nondescript sets, White was
thrilled how his team finished
the match.
I was proud of our performance in set three, he said.
The first two sets we literally
just went through the motions.
I challenged the boys to put on
a good show and focus on our
level of play. Thomas
(Robson) got it rolling from
the service line with a big 8-1

digs.McMurray had two aces,


18 assists and eight digs,
Gundrum had two aces and
six digs and
Flottmeyer had five kills.
Middleton earned the top
seed, then bested Antigo, 2518, 25-21, in the quarterfinals.
Welti had 11 kills and six
digs, while Nonn had 13
digs.McGinnis had eight kills
and six digs, McMurray had
21 assists and six digs and

The Cardinals then toppled

Welti had 16 kills and eight

and eight digs and McMurray
had 25 assists and nine digs.
Reagan Thomas added 10

At that point we were

Middletons boys soccer


team crossed the midway point
of its season last week.
And the first half of the year
went about as well as the
Cardinals could have hoped.
Middleton, the states No. 2
ranked team, won three more
games without a loss. And the
Cardinals improved to 10-0-1
overall and are 3-0-1 in the Big
Eight Conference.
This has been a big week,
Middleton coach Ben Kollasch
said. We now have a set of
starters and many players on
the bench that have been intact
for over a year and a half and
are truly seasoned veterans of
varsity soccer.
Their camaraderie and
cohesion are plain to see on the
field and they are earning
tremendous results because of
it.
Middleton opened the week
with a 6-0 win over host
Janesville Craig last Tuesday.
Derek Waleffe scored three
goals, while Bradan Allen
scored twice. Central defender
Max Raisleger also scored, firing a shot through a crowded
box for a goal to the upper corner with authority.
Max Lawrence notched two
assists, while Gregory Pauly
and Allen both had one assist.
Brendon Martin and Cole

shutout.

has posted seven shutouts.
Our defense must be considered one of the best in the
state, Kollasch said. This
tremendous
defense
is
anchored by senior captain
Ryan Peyton, senior Max
Raisleger,
senior
Taylor

Schleuter, junior Noah Pollard


and is backed up by senior
goalie Brendon Martin. This is
the best defensive squad we
have seen in many years.

Boys runners
finish third at
Midwest Invite
PAGE 18

by ROB REISCHEL
Times-Tribune

Middletons boys cross


country team has lofty goals
and grand aspirations this fall.
And the Cardinals are
doing everything they can to
ensure those dreams come to
fruition.
Middleton went to the 40team, star-studded Midwest
Invitational in Janesville last
Saturday and rested a key runner whos battling back from
injury.
With the No. 1-ranked
Cardinals being down one of
their standouts, they finished
third at the meet.
Arrowhead won the team
title with 108 points, while
Neenah (186), Middleton
(196), Monona Grove (204)
and South Milwaukee (236)
rounded out the top five.
Overall, the meet featured 14
of the states top-20 schools.
We sat out Ryan Madoch
from varsity, Middleton
coach Brian Finnel said. Hes
coming back from a minor
injury and is running now.
Id rather have us at full
strength in a few weeks (in the
postseason), rather than for
Midwest, and potentially risking further harm to him and
jeopardizing the big goals the
team has. If this was state,
though, he would have raced.
Cardinals senior Gus
Newcomb was second individually, completing the
5,000-meter race in 15 minutes, 23.7 seconds. Junior
Jack Rader was eighth
(15:56.5), junior Sam Jager

was 20th (16:15.4), sophomore Caleb Easton was 38th


(16:39.3)
and
freshman
Zachary Leffel was 128th
(17:45.4).
This meet was loaded to
say the least, Finnel said.
We knew it was going to be
tough, but hats off to
Arrowhead. They brought
their A game and had a sensational meet.
While getting third place
didnt meet our team goals,
theres no reason to panic
from our perspective. Today
we were in a semi-vulnerable
spot without Ryan, but I
thought we handled things
well and some guys stepped
up nicely.
We have a sensational
five, with some quality depth
behind them. However, when
there is a big drop-off in time,
and at a meet like this with 40
teams, a lot of bodies can get
in between our fourth and
fifth runners. Do we win with
Ryan? Hard to say, but we are
right there in my mind.
Sun Prairies girls won the
team title with 61 points.
Middleton was seventh with
285 points.
Middleton junior Charlotte
Sue was 39th individually in
20:09.8. Senior Erika Rader
was 50th (20:24.5), junior Iris
Ohlrogge was 54th (20:26.7),
freshman Maeve Gonter was
56th (20:30.4) and senior
Maya Gibson was 86th
(20:52.8).

Middleton
moves to 5-0
by ROB REISCHEL
Times-Tribune

Middletons girls swimming and diving team toppled


Janesville Parker/Evansville,
134-36, last Friday.
The Cardinals improved to
5-0 in the Big Eight
Conference.
Overall, this was a solid
meet for us, Middleton coach
Lauren Cabalka said. The
girls got a much needed break
from an intense couple of
weeks, and were able to swim
some new events.
I think this gave them
some new energy as we move
forward to October and the
hardest weeks of the season.
Our relays did a really nice
job once again and we had
some fun surprises from girls
in off events.All in all, a job
well done.
Middleton won all three

relay events, as well as all


eight individual races.
Middletons
Margaret
McGill captured the 200
freestyle (2:02.75), while

ence tournament, I felt really confident with my game, but


winning it individually wasnt
top of mind.
My focus was on each hole
and each stroke, and how best I
could help out my team. For
Middleton to win it was fantastic, and my individual win was
icing on the cake!
Hodson wasnt the only
Cardinal to enjoy a big day.
MHS senior Alexis Thomas
finished second overall with a
76. Senior Lindsay Callahan
carded an 87 and finished sixth
individually, while senior
Morgan Miles and freshman
Kate Meier both shot 88s and
tied for eighth .
Winning the Big Eight
Conference tournament was a
great start to our postseason
run, said Middleton coach
Becky Halverson, who helped
lead the Cardinals to the WIAA
Division 1 state title last year.
It was definitely exciting to
have Payton and Alexis finish
first and second, and both of
them would agree that they
could have played even better.
To have Payton (finish)
first, Alexis second, Lindsay
sixth and Morgan and Kate tie
for eighth is just awesome. I
am just so proud of them and
all their accomplishments so
far.
There was a lot to be proud
of on this day, beginning with
Hodson.
Hodson has taken a major
jump in this, her junior season,
highlighted by a career-best 74

that included medalist honors


at the Cardinal Invite earlier
this month.
Hodson has been a model of
consistency since that time and
was terrific once again at the
conference meet.
Hodson shot a 2-over-par,
38, on the front nine, highlighted by a birdie at No. 4 and four
consecutive pars between No.
6-9.
After a bogey at No. 10
dropped Hodson back to 3over-par, she birdied No. 12
and 14 and jumped to 1-over.
Hodson stayed there until she
had a hiccup and made double
bogey at No. 18.
Still, it was a memorable
round for the Cardinals standout.
I was very happy and
proud of Payton for winning
the conference tournament,
Thomas said. It definitely
boosted her confidence, which
is something everyone of us
needs. You can tell shes really
worked hard this past summer
and fall, and its great for our
team.
Thomas has been great for
the Cardinals, as well.
A first-team all-state player
in 2015, Thomas has gotten
even better in 2016. And the
North Dakota State recruit
capped her Big Eight career in
style.
Thomas made a birdie at the
par-5 second hole on her way
to a 38 on the front nine. The
remarkably steady Thomas
then notched seven pars and

two bogeys on the back nine


and posted a 38 on that side, as
well.
Much like Hodson, Thomas
has taken her game up several
notches in her final year at
MHS.
Every day this summer I
always tried to practice with a
purpose, whether I was working on my swing at the range,
or perfecting my short game on
the course, Thomas said. My
main goal each day was to
accomplish something new and
try new things to get the ball
closest to the hole, and that definitely helped improve my
game. As of right now, Im just
trying to stay focused on my
own game, and not let any little
distractions get to me, and help
motivate my team to get where
we want to be.
Callahan, who has fought a
back injury while at MHS, is
also finishing her career with a
bang. And both Meier and
Miles had solid days, as well,
as the Cardinals rolled to the

conference title.
I sound like a broken
record, but our short game still
needs a lot of work and that
will be our focus in preparing
for our postseason run,
Halverson said. Were going
to try to make this a special end
to our three seniors seasons.
The Cardinals hosted the
Middleton
Regional
Wednesday at Pleasant View.
Middleton will also host a sectional Oct. 4 at Blackhawk
Country Club beginning at 9
a.m.
The state tournament is Oct.
10-11 at University Ridge Golf
Course.
Right now, I feel prepared
and assured that, as a team, we
are in a good position to
advance,
Hodson
said.
Heading into the postseason,
our focus is to continue to
improve every day.
We are sharpening our
short game and working to
eliminate those wasted strokes.
Even though we are ranked No.
1 in the state, we cannot take
this for granted. We have much
work to do to reach our goal of
another state title. It is important for us to remain positive,
cohesive, and confident in our
abilities. We can only do this as
a team, and we are excited to
rise to the challenge.
Thomas agreed.
Im pretty confident with
what my team and I have right
now, Thomas said. We definitely all have the capability to
shoot low, which is great to

know coming into the postseason.


We all have the same goals,
and as of right now were trying to stay focused by working
on them one day at a time,
doing everything we need to in
order to achieve those goals.
Our main goal is to perfect our
short game because we all
know thats the most important
part of the game.
Im just really excited to
give this all one last shot before
the season is over, and I dont
want us to regret anything.
Weve really come a long way,
and we act like family, which is
something really special coming into the postseason.
Middleton also won the
Triton Invitational held Sept.
19 at Thornberry Creek. The
Cardinals shot a 326 to easily
outdistance runner-up Oshkosh
West (338).
Middleton had never shot
lower than a 343 at the Triton
Invite, so Halverson and her
team were thrilled with the
results.
This is the first time weve
won this invite, Halverson
said afterwards.
Thomas was the medalist
with a 76, while Hodson carded
a 77 and finished in a second
place tie. Callahan was ninth
with an 86, while Miles was
10th with an 87.
Meier was 13th individually
with an 88, but her score didnt
count because the other
Cardinals had such impressive
showings.

continued from page 15

All five girls were in the


top 13, Halverson said.I like
this tournament because its a
tough course and I think it really helps our mental toughness
getting ready for postseason. It
was also neat for the girls to
play the same course where the
LPGA will be playing next
July.

across the field for the


score.
Turners
return
gave
Middleton a 21-0 lead and
gave it some momentum to
start the half.
We came out at halftime
and wanted to assert ourselves
offensively, Simon said.
The whole team got a boost
out of that (kickoff return).
The sideline was going nuts
and everybody was celebrating. That play was a key to the
game.
Middleton played well on
both sides of the ball, outgaining the Vikings, 281-95, in
total offense. Behind a stout
offensive line, the Cardinals
were able to rush for 178
yards, nearly on par with the
186 yards they averaged heading into the game.
Janesville Parker features a
mountain of a man in defensive lineman Juan Harris, who
checks in in at 6-foot-3, 395
pounds. Going up against
such a force in the middle of
the line made the Cardinals
rushing stats even more
impressive.
Harris, a senior headed to
Indiana University in 2017,
went toe-to-toe much of the
evening with 63, 320 pound
Kayden Lyles, Middletons
center and a University of
Wisconsin recruit. The two
will potentially go head-tohead during the 2017 Big 10
season. Lyles was confident in
the offense facing Harris and
the physical Parker defense.
We game planned as
usual, Lyles said. When he
(Harris) lines up, hes a big,
physical player. We had to
account for him when he was
out there.
Simon agreed.
Since (Harris) plays on
both sides of the ball, our plan
was move the sticks on
offense so we could tire him
out on defense, Simon said.
I dont know if that happened
or not, but we did have some
nice long drives and he was on
the field for some long
stretches of time.
Overall, Lyles was pleased
with the work of Middletons
offense.
We need to get better at a
few different things, but our
running backs have been
doing really good, Lyles
said. Our communication
and being one as a whole, its
been really good, but theres
always room for improvement.
Middleton used a five-play
drive for the games first
score, as quarterback Davis
Roquet plunged in from two
yards out to give the Cardinals
a 7-0 advantage at the 1:55
mark of the first quarter. The
play was set up by a 30-yard
scamper by running back
James Pabst earlier in the
drive that put the Cardinals at
the 2-yard line.
Middleton scored its second touchdown an 18yarder on a terrific play by
receiver Myron Ashford, Jr. in
the second quarter.
Roquet rolled to his right
and threw a perfect pass on a
fade route to the end zone.
Ashford, Jr. scaled his defender and plucked the ball, began
falling backwards, and tipped
the ball in the air to himself,
before landing in the end zone
for the score.

continued from page 15

Basically, I like to focus


on the ball and look for the
nose (of the ball), Ashford,
Jr. said with a grin. And I just
made the play.
It stayed that way until
Turners explosive return to
begin the second half.
The Cardinals added another score later in the third on a
1-yard diving touchdown by
running back Joe Ludwig that
stretched Middletons lead to
28-0.
Lining up in the wildcat,
Ludwig took the snap and
dove over the left side for the
score. The touchdown was set
up by a 24-yard quarterback
keeper by Roquet on fourthand-1 earlier in the six-play
drive and would be the games
final score.
Simon was pleased with
the teams effort.
We felt like we left some
plays out on the field last
week (against Verona). We
didnt play bad last week, we
just couldnt finish, Simon
said. We were able to make
some plays tonight, whether it
was a key block to spring the
running back or Myrons
catch in the end zone. The
kids came out and made
plays.
Middletons defense held
Parker to 90 rushing yards and
just two completions and five
passing yards. The Cardinals
also racked up three sacks and
10 tackles-for-loss. Parker ran
just five plays in Middleton
territory all evening.
We were tough and physical up front, Simon said.
Janesville is a run-oriented
team. When we can stop the
run and force them to pass like
we did, we know were doing
some good things.
Im most proud of our
defensive stop in the second
quarter when we fumbled the
ball on offense. Parker wasnt
able to capitalize on the good
starting field position. We
were fast to flow to the football all night just solid
defensively.
Simon knew this was an
important game for his team
to stay in the hunt for a conference championship.
I was proud of our overall
mental toughness and focus,
he said. It was a tough week
for us. We were battling some
adversity. I was really proud
of the way the kids were able
to focus on the football game.
We have to do what weve
been doing and make the
adjustments we need to make.
