Times-Tribune
MIDDLETON – Residents
in the City if Middleton’s 4th
District will have a new rep-
resentative at city hall follow-
ing the spring election. Emily
Kuhn launched her campaign
as a challenger to incumbent
Elizabeth Hetrick, but her
path to the seat became mark-
edly easier when Hetrick, the
city’s current District 4 Alder,
called off her re-election bid.
“My husband and I recently
found out that we are expecting
another addition to our fam-
ily in [the] fall of 2018,” said
Hetrick in a message to her
constituents several weeks ago.
Kuhn
“After long and hard reflection,
I determined a couple of days
ago that I could not in good
conscience commit to devot-
ing the time and attention that
being an Alder requires while
also making sure that I give my
family the time they deserve.”
Tom Yost, who also lives in
District 4, toyed with launching
a write-in campaign, but did not
articulate a platform and ulti-
mately decided not to run at all.
That means Kuhn is the
only active candidate for the
seat, despite the fact that it
was too late to remove Het-
rick’s name from the ballot.
Kuhn told the Times-Tri-
bune she wants to serve on the
city council “to help the peo-
ple of the district and to help
all the people of Middleton.”
She said she wants to help
maintain the beauty and the
accessibility of local natural
resources and parks. She be-
lieves that fixing roads helps
walkers, bikers, and drivers
each day, “whether getting to
work or going to our wonderful
parks and schools.” She also
said she supports workforce
housing, which will help the
community continue to grow.
Kuhn described herself as
“an entrepreneur, advocate,
and activist.” She touted “a
large depth and breadth of
experience in leading and
managing in government.”

What is the current board/
council currently doing well?
  Emily Kuhn feels that the
council maintains our parks well.
 
In what areas could the
board/council improve?
Emily Kuhn feels that the
council could improve fix-
ing our potholes and the
overall road conditions.
 
What would you like
to see local taxes do in
the coming budget? Go
Emily Kuhn feels that taxes
need to stay flat; the city
should prioritize local taxes
for significant needs, rather
than try to fund all the needs
and the wants simultaneously.
 
How do you make the
distinction between es-
sential and non-essen-
tial government services?
Emily Kuhn feels that es-
sential services are the needs
of the community, including
public safety, infrastructure,
and schools. These services
are used every day in the com-
munity from walking our safe
neighborhoods, driving our
roads, and turning on our water
faucet each day. Emily feels
that the non-essential are the
wants of the community. These
services generally create the
high quality of life in our city.
How and when should
Tax Increment Financ-
ing (TIF) be used?

Middleton

In Middleton, we have 2
TIFs that are operating for the
next 10-15 years.  TIF districts
are designed to fix a city’s
challenging area that otherwise
would not be developed. Gen-
erally, the district is industrial
or a mix of commercial and
residential areas and in need
of public assistance. TIFs are
popular and often have require-
ments for the environment and/
or workforce housing. Emily
Kuhn believes that a measured
review of each proposal, in light
of long-term planning is a must.
 
How should local govern-
ment do to balance economic
growth and development with
the community’s current size,
pace, and quality of life?
 
Emily Kuhn feels that local
government should support a
healthy business community

to encourage growth and de-

local government must support
housing options for increasing
number of workers and worker
family needs to maintain the
pace and quality of life. Emily
feels that local government can
plan smart solutions for traffic
flow and transportation op-
tions, ensure quality growing
schools, and continue access
to the environment, including
parks. Emily feels that creating
a plan for the future to ensure
balanced growth is a priority.
 
What unique chal-
lenges does your district/
community face? How
would you address them?
Emily Kuhn notes that our
district is long and thin. The
heart of the district is Lakev-
iew Park, which she loves
to go with her family and
friends. The north and south
ends of the district are a mix
of residential and businesses.  Boulevard and Mendota, the
Emily feels that a challenge
is bringing everyone into the
heart of the district in a fami-
ly-friendly, environmental way.
Many of us want to walk and
ride bikes to Lakeview Park and
on to downtown Middleton, but
the potholes and traffic are chal-
lenging for walkers and bikers.  the speed limit and works with
Emily thinks that we need to
prioritize fixing our roads and
potholes to ensure safe travels.
To address the traffic, the city
needs to review the length of
lights on Century Avenue, in-
cluding Branch Street and Allen
Boulevard, consider increasing
the length of the lights to help
pedestrians cross. On Allen
city should consider permanent
electronic speeding signs that
inform drivers of their current
speed, much like the speeding
sign near Sauk Trail. She passes
one on the way to her chil-
dren’s preschool and it flashes
if a driver is a few miles over
solar panels. On Mendota, the
city should consider painting
lines marking the middle of the
road to help slow down traffic
speeds and additional signage.

as director of criminal appeals
for the Wisconsin Department
of Justice, and as chief legal
counsel to Governor Jim Doyle.
Most importantly, Susan
is the only candidate with
experience in Dane County
courtrooms and criminal
cases. This should be a key
consideration in determin-
ing your vote as the judge
elected on April 3 will preside
over mostly criminal cases.
Susan will treat all who
appear before her with re-
spect.  She is keenly aware
of disparities in the jus-
tice system and will work
to address these disparities.
We are definitely not alone in
our enthusiasm for Susan.  Her
impressive list of endorse-
ments includes  Sheriff Dave
Mahoney, County Executive
Joe Parisi, Gov. Jim Doyle,
Kathleen Falk, District At-
torney Ismael Ozanne, and
hundreds of other commu-
nity leaders and attorneys.
In addition, Susan is
overwhelmingly supported
by current and retired
Dane County judges, peo-
ple who know the job best.
Please join us in vot-
ing for Susan Crawford for
Dane County Judge on April
3rd.

Durand is
a strategic
thinker
We know Bartlett Durand
through his work in local youth
programs and in the commu-
nity as a whole. His energy,
enthusiasm, and deep caring
for our community is read-
ily apparent in working with
him. Working with Bartlett in
the various committees and
training programs we run, we
have found him to be a stra-
tegic thinker, thorough in his
preparation, and innovative in
his approach to issues. He is
willing to challenge the status
quo and push for better ways
of doing things, but always
with respect and in an inter-
active, cooperative manner.
As a group, we have kids in
area private and public schools,
yet we all believe Bartlett will
be a tremendous asset for the
community by serving on the
School Board. We encour-
age you, our neighbors, to
vote for Bartlett and let him
work on the Board and with
the Administration to push
our schools to be more inte-
grated with the community
and offer a more holistic expe-
rience for all of our children.
We endorse Bartlett Du-
rand for the School Board.

Three
reasons
to vote for
Bauer
Few would argue that
the state of our education
system doesn’t have room
for improvement. Rising
enrolment, budgetary pressures,
bullying, attrition – the list
of issues is long. Thankfully,
Anne Bauer is up to the task
of putting our schools on a
successful path. Here are three
key reasons to vote for her on
April 3:
First, Anne fights for the kids
who need it most.
Anne got her start teaching
special education in a low
income school district in
Arizona. Working with
students during and after
school, Anne helped put many
of them on a successful path.
In particular, she worked
evenings providing instruction
to a homebound girl, who was
battling sickle cell anemia in a

crime ridden neighborhood.
In 2004, Anne became
a volunteer for the CASA
(Court Appointed Special
Advocates) organization,
making recommendations on
the best permanent homes for
abused and neglected children.
Anne got to know the children,
their parents and relatives,
teachers, and others in order
to make decisions in the best
interest of “her” kids. Today,
she is also an active volunteer
and contributor to the World
Orphan Fund.
Anne proudly parents
two children of her own in
Middleton, one of whom has
special needs. As a mom first
and foremost, she is committed
to making sure that MCPASD
fairly represents all children in
the district.
Second, Anne stands up for
teachers.
As the only MCPASD
School Board Member with
K-12 public school teaching
experience, Anne is passionate
about representing teachers.
She has a proven track record
of retaining and empowering
MCPASD’s amazing staff by
listening to their concerns,
advocating for resolution and
promoting fair compensation.
Third, Anne maximizes
taxpayer return.
Anne has an advanced degree
in Education and has served on
the Board since 2012. During
her tenure, she has served as
Board Treasurer, chaired the
Legislative committee, served
on the Board of the Middleton
Education Foundation and
sat on the Compensation
Committee. No one is more
acutely aware of the budgetary
challenges facing our district,
and Anne has many creative
ideas on how to do more with
less. Because she knows that
every dollar counts, Anne
quietly donates a significant
portion of her MCPASD
compensation back to the
district and other charitable
causes.
For these three reasons and
more, please help me reelect
Anne Bauer to the MCPASD
School Board on April 3. We
need her now more than ever.

When our citizens go to
the polls to vote for their rep-
resentative on the Middle-

there is one candidate that
stands above all others and
that candidate is Anne Bauer.
Anne has served on the
board with dedication since
2012 and, most importantly, is
the only board member with
actual K-12 teaching experi-
ence. She has two children in
our wonderful school district
and thus understands how
what is needed to provide a
quality education while bal-
ancing everyone’s desire for
reasonable spending levels.

even a past board treasurer.
Yet with all of those respon-
sibilities, she still somehow
finds time to be on the PTO
and volunteer in the classroom.
In my conversations with
Anne, I have always been im-
pressed with her deep knowl-
edge of our school system and
her plan to work on staff reten-
tion by empowering our teach-
ers and administrators through
respectful dialogue, moral sup-
port and fair compensation.  In
addition, she has a plan to re-

still meeting the needs of our

Bauer
makes her
case...
children is my life’s work,
and is the primary reason I
serve on the Middleton Cross
Plains Area School District
(MCPASD) Board of Educa-
tion.  Over the past six years,
I have used my experience as
an educator, parent and tax-
payer to address the district’s
biggest challenges: growing
enrollments, retaining our tal-
ented staff, and eliminating
the academic achievement gap.
During my board tenure I
have sought additional op-
portunities to contribute by
serving on the district’s Em-
ployee Compensation and
Handbook committees, as
well as on the Middleton Ed-
ucation Foundation Board.
I currently chair the board’s
legislative committee and
regularly volunteer at฀฀ Sunset
Ridge Elementary School ฀฀฀ and
Glacier Creek Middle School,
the schools my sons attend.
Recognizing MCPASD
confronts a growing student
population exceeding our cur-
rent facility capacity, I voted
to establish the facilities plan-
ning committee made up of
community members working
together to provide long-range
options.  Beyond my expected
duties as a board member, I
attend facility planning com-
mittee meetings, tours and
community outreach sessions
in order to remain well-in-
formed on each development.
I am proud to support ed-
ucators and staff who are the
key drivers of academic suc-
cess, and we must continue
to retain their talents. I sup-
port fair compensation and
district wellness initiates de-
signed to reduce stress, pro-
mote work/life balance, and
promote healthy lifestyles.
Despite our hard-earned
reputation for excellence, we
must eliminate the achieve-
ment gap. I fully support the
ongoing effort to address this
challenge by employing fo-
cused programming tailored
to individual school needs.
I am honored to serve, and
seek re-election to the Middle-
ton Cross Plains Area School
District Board of Education
There is more work to be done.
I ask for your vote on April 3rd.
Thank you,
Anne Bauer
Durand
offers
positive
leadership
There is an important elec-
tion next Tuesday in which
every voter should vote. Once
race that is locally significant
is for our school board. These
are the folks who, with our su-
perintendent, create a vision
for our school district.  Having
spent over two decades serving
on the board, I have developed
opinions about what makes
for a good board member.
-someone who doesn’t
have a single issue agenda
-someone with a proven track
record of working coopera-
tively and respectfully with oth-
ers for the good of the district
-someone with commitment
to advocate for excellent public
education across the state and
for every student in our district
-someone who listens to the
excellent educators and admin-
istrative leaders in our district

a great track record of work-
ing for the good of our com-
munity. His passion for our
schools is genuine, and he has
great connections with the
business community which
will open up opportunities for

work with the district is a pos-
itive predictor of how he will
work on the  board. And his
holistic view of children and

Celebrate
Sondheim
For the fourth year in a row,
the Middleton Public Library
is collaborating with Four Sea-
sons Theatre Company to offer
a unique event highlighting the
intersection of literature and
musical theater. On Wednes-
day, May 18, at 6:30 PM Four
Seasons presents “Words (and
Music) by Stephen Sondheim,”
an hour-long program focusing
on the craft of lyric-writing as
practiced by the modern master
of American musical theatre.
The performance features
four singers and a pianist show-
casing a mixture of Sondheim’s
songs interspersed with read-
ings from his essays and in-
terviews about the craft of lyr-
ic-writing. Audiences will learn
about the intricacies of the lyr-
icist’s craft --- How do lyrics
differ from poetry? How do
lyrics resemble a one-act play?
What purpose does rhyming
serve in crafting a powerful
lyric? --- while enjoying some
of the best local singers per-
forming music from Sondheim
shows like Company, Into the
Woods, and Sweeney Todd.
This special performance is
made possible by the Friends of

The opioid crisis has en-
croached on arguably all levels
of society across the United
States, the federal government
officially deemed it a public
health emergency. An esti-
mated 91 people die every day
from an opioid overdose.
Opioid-related overdoses
are less likely to be fatal
if naloxone, also known
as Narcan®, a lifesaving
opioid antidote, is accessible.
Wisconsin’s Department of
Justice has increased access
TIMES-TRIBUNE
to naloxone by negotiating
with drug manufacturers to
make naloxone available at a
discounted rate to Wisconsin
first responders, government
agencies, and community-
based organizations.
Presentation objectives: To
raise community awareness of
the opioid epidemic; Help com-
munity members recognize the
signs of an individual experi-
encing and overdose, and learn
how to respond.
Heidi Olson-Steed, a
Prevention Specialist with
ARCW-Madison, will lead the
training and share: What is an
overdose; How to respond to an
opiate overdose; How to admin-
ister NARCAN; Information on
how to access NARCAN via

Afterward, they asked them to eat a few ounces of one of

Survey
coming
Bill Foster of School Percep-
tions presented information on
a draft community survey for
the facilities planning process
to the Board of Education at
its regular meeting on Monday,
March 12.
Foster noted every com-
munity member will receive a
letter in the mail about how to
take the survey, which is eight
pages and should take about 10
minutes to complete. He be-
lieves most will take it online
but it can also be done on paper
and returned to the District or
School Perceptions. A second
code will be provided to fami-
lies who request and have mul-
tiple adults in their household.
The Board spent nearly an
hour going over the survey
with Foster. One member had
concerns about a sentence on
inclusion that is part of an in-
troductory letter from Super-
intendent George Mavroulis.
Another wanted residents to
know the Board wants to hear
from them and listen to their
suggestions.
Board members felt it
was important to stress that
MCPASD is one of the fast-
est-growing districts in the
state. Others suggested the
pages on the high school option
include more information about
outdated classrooms, space
challenges and the program-
ming benefits that will occur if
a referendum passes.
There is also a section on
possible projects and the Board
had lots of discussion about
wording on Breitenbach Stadi-
um-athletic facilities question.
They also discussed if any dol-
lar amounts should be added
or removed when asking the
community what they would be
willing to support. The Board
was supportive of including
five dollar amounts ranging
from $100 million to $220 mil-
lion for a capital question.
Mavroulis noted $3 million
is not enough for an operational
question if the community also
supported building a new mid-
dle school immediately. Foster
said when he surveyed residents
in Sun Prairie a range was used.

printed for this election. He
voted yes to support the Life
Foundation’s purchase of the
Ludden Drive property, if the
Foundation could meet criteria
set by the Village, but voted no
to continue pursuit of this as
the criteria set by the Village
was not met. He voted yes
for the Village to become an
Ice Age Trail Community,
and voted no to add mountain
biking to Cedar Hill and Cedar
Glen Conservancy. In answer
to the audience question
regarding whether or not the
Village should have more large
apartment buildings, he stated
that “we really have plenty”
and he would like to see more
residential developments.
In closing statements he
emphasized each community
member’s decision to vote for
someone without an individual
agenda. “You’re here because
you want to find out if we’re
going to be your voice“ and
encouraged everyone to look
at his voting record to discern
if he is the candidate for them.
Kevin Thusius has been a
resident of Cross Plains since
2004 and is the Director of
Land Conservation for the
Ice Age Trail Alliance. He
has been a part of the Parks
Committee since 2005 and
is a first time Village Board
Trustee candidate. He states
that his highest priority is to “...
motivate new audiences to get
involved with our community.”
Two other top priorities
include responsible
development in the community
emphasizing its strengths, as
well as making decisions now
that lead toward a long-term
vision for Cross Plains, and
cementing Cross Plains pride.
He wants to explore “innovative
ways to get people involved,”
and wants each Trustee to
get out into the public more.
He views transparency as an
“inherent part of governance-
--there is no other option” and
feels that the more people that
are involved, the “more eyes
on it” helps, as well as building
the trust of the community
by making decisions that the
community wants. He feels
that research, talking with the
community to find out their
desires, as well as the opinion
of developers as to whether or
not it is economically viable, is
the best first step in answering
the question of whether or
not Cross Plains needs more
large apartment buildings. In
closing statements, he again
emphasized his desire to get
more people involved in local
government.
Jeanne Statz is a first time
Cross Plains Village Board
Trustee candidate, but served as
a Trustee and then President of
the Black Earth Village Board.
She has been a resident of Cross
Plains for two years. She says
her previous Board experiences
in Black Earth give her an
advantage and spoke with pride
about the endeavors there that
took place during her terms,
such as two new subdivisions,
the Blue Mound Street project,
and keeping taxes low. Her
priorities for Cross Plains are
“smart growth,” insuring roads,
sewers, and electric utilities are
prepared to handle an increase
in population from its current
size of 4,000. She hopes to reach
out to the Lions, the American
Legion, the fire station, and
others to find out their needs.
She states that a recent survey
found that the community
wants more restaurants and
retail businesses and hopes
to help fulfill this desire if
elected. She wants to “Do
what’s right, even it doesn’t
suit everyone”, and would like
to make sure that everyone has
an opportunity to speak. She
hopes to “get out there and let
people know that we want to
hear from them.” She doesn’t
feel that Cross Plains needs
more large apartment buildings
but would like to look further
into it, considering what is
best for the community. In
her closing statements, she
emphasized the need to execute
the five year plan correctly, as
well as good communication
between Trustees and the
community. She stated that
she has the time, experience,
energy, and the desire to answer
the hard questions, stating
that “everyone’s opinions are
important.”
Lee Sorensen is seeking a
third term as Village Board
Trustee, and has been a resident
since 2004. He cited his
involvement in his previous
town of Detroit with a Rails
to Trails citizens group as the
impetus behind his desire to be
involved in local government.
His priorities are in economic
development, insuring that the
Highway P construction goes
smoothly, and the success of
the Sundance Development
in Sunset Valley off of KP.
In order to foster inclusion,
he cited the current Board to
provision ofVillage newsletters
to the apartment buildings,
updates to the Village website,
and the intentions of the Board
to do more with a Village
Facebook page.
He encouraged everyone
to come to board meetings,
express opinions, talk with the
Village Administrator Caitlin
Stene, and to regularly read the
Village website. With regard
to adding more apartment
buildings to Cross Plains, he
emphasized that he would ask
“What do the citizens want?”,
and that his answer would
depend on what the residents
say. In his closing statements,
he emphasized the assets that
Cross Plains has: the excellent
parks, the promptness of street
plowing, its successful water
and sewer departments and
cautioned that growth should
include the preservation of
current resources such as
the creek, and trails, and to
promote growth while keeping
the “ambiance of a quiet,
friendly community.”

Student who is raising funds for K-9 Police Ministry gets surprise visit
from dogs who helped comfort people impacted by Florida shooting
St. Francis Xavier 5th grader Kamryn Wells got quite the surprise Friday, March 16, when
Golden Retrievers, Dora and Shiloh showed up at his classroom door. Kamryn has been raising
money for the LCC K-9 Police Ministry and the organization surprised him with the  oppor-
tunity to meet two of their dogs to recognize his efforts.  Cross Plains Police Chief Janssen also
joined in on recognizing the good work that Kamryn is doing.  LLC K-9 Police Ministry is a na-
tional human-care ministry embracing the unique, calming nature and skills of purebred Golden
Retrievers. LCC K-9 Comfort Dogs are working animals, trained to interact with  people of all
ages and circumstances who are suffering and in need.  The dogs pictured had been recently
deployed to help the people impacted by the Florida school shooting. Kamryn first learned about
the LLC K-P Police Ministry on social media, where he follows the dogs as they travel the United
States helping people in need. So far Kamryn has raised over $400 through sales from a brat
stand at the Shoe Box in Black Earth, his goal is to raise $15,000.

Middleton aims for magical year
Baseball Cards gunning for
a bounceback campaign
BY ROB REISCHEL
Times-Tribune
One of Tom Schmitt’s
favorite pictures is from 2003.
Schmitt, Middleton’s rook-
ie manager at the time, had
just led the Cardinals to the
WIAA Division 1 state cham-
pionship. And there’s a shot
of young Brady Schmitt, who
was just 3 at the time, with a
baseball from the title game
while Tom was holding the
state championship trophy.
Brady is all grown up now
and one of the leaders of the
2018 Cardinals. And there’s
nothing Tom Schmitt would
like better than to win another
championship with his young-
est son playing a key role.
“That would be a story-
book ending,” Tom Schmitt
said.
While the odds of winning
a title for any team are slim,
Middleton should be poised
for a big season.
The Cardinals went 9-9
in the Big Eight Conference
and 13-14 overall last year.
But Middleton improved dra-
matically as the season went
on, won six of its last eight
games, and reached the sec-
tional semifinals before drop-
ping a 2-1 decision to Tomah.
Middleton returns the
majority of that team and

“These guys have played
lot ball together,” said Tom
Schmitt, whose team played
four games in St. Petersburg,
Fla. this week. “We’re all
excited about the year.”
Middleton’s pitching staff
should be a strength.
Brady Schmitt went 5-1
last season with a 1.63 ERA
and was named second-team
all-Big Eight Conference.
Schmitt struck out 31 batters,
walked just 13 in 43 innings
and threw a no-hitter against
Madison East in May.
“He pitched better than we
anticipated,” Tom Schmitt
said of Brady. “He doesn’t
throw the hardest, but we
knew he’d throw strikes and
compete.”
The rest of the staff should
be solid, as well.

Teams are listed in project-
ed order of finish.
1. Janesville Craig
Last year: 25-3, lost in
sectional semifinals
Coach: Victor Herbst, 14th
year (223-113)
Returning pitchers:
Mitchell Woelfle, jr. (7-1, 1.43
ERA), Noah Berghammer, sr.
(2-0, 2.92), Jacob Faust, sr.
(3-0, 2.58).
Returning hitters: Jacob
Campbell, sr., C, .463; Dan
Blomgren, jr., IF, .351; Luke
Malmanger, sr., 1B, .333;
Ross March, sr., Util, .263;
J.J. Brennan, sr., OF.
Outlook: Craig returns
three first-team and one sec-
ond-team all-conference play-
ers, plenty of team speed and
added depth with a handful of
younger players ready to con-
tribute. The Cougars’ pitching
depth will be inexperienced
at the back end of the staff.
Younger players will need to
make a quick adjustment to
the speed of the varsity game.
2. Sun Prairie
Last year: 25-7, lost to
Kimberly in state finals
Coach: Rob Hamilton,
18th year (343-96)
Returning pitchers:
Taylor Jansen, sr. (7-1, 2.64);
Joe Hauser, soph. (2-2, 2.65);
Alex Oakley, sr. (5-0, 3.08).
Returning hitters: Carson
Holen, sr., OF, .435; Alex

Hamilton, sr., C (.351); Luke
Deprey, sr., OF, .327; Joe
Hauser, soph., 2B, .267; Jack
Zander, sr., 3B, .329.
Outlook: The Cardinals’
experience on the mound is a
major strength. Offensively,
Sun Prairie should be solid
1-9 throughout the lineup. Sun
Prairie must improve its pitch-
ing depth, though, to make a

deep postseason run.
3. Verona
Last year: 14-12, reached
sectional finals
Coach: Brad D’Orazio,
17th year (141-136)
Returning pitchers:
Reagan Klawitter, jr., (4-2,
1.38); Tristan Largent, sr.

Returning hitters: Tristan
Largent, sr., 1B, .299; Tucker
Teskey, sr., OF, .375; Connor
McGowan, sr., SS, .231;
Stephan Lund, sr.
Outlook: Verona’s top
two pitchers are left-handers
and should help the Wildcats
compete for a top-three finish.
The Wildcats need to improve
offensively, though, to make
a run at the top of the con-
ference.
4. Middleton
Last year: 14-14, lost in
sectional semifinals
Coach: Tom Schmitt, 16th
year (267-116)

State champs — twice
The Middleton Basketball Club’s fourth grade team recently won a pair of state championships.
Middleton defeated Manitowoc to win the WBCA State Championship on March 10-11 and toppled Muskego to win
the Badgerland State Championship March 17-18.
In front (from left) are Espen Achenbach, Isaiah Oliver, Jackson Guerrero, Dane Krachey, Oliver Wenning and
Andrew Qastin.
In the middle (from left) are John Grimes, Michael Wilson, Chase Rogers, Hayes Niesen and Luke LaScala.
In back (from left) are coaches Matt Niesen, Joe Krachey, Ian Grimes and Aaron Achenbach
Players not pictured are Elijah Jackson, Brennan Mauer, Joey Passaglia, Sam Keith and Zander Dale.
Baseball
Ballweg could also factor in.
“We have good arms and
good depth,” Tom Schmitt
said. “Even with some inju-
ries, I think we’ll be OK. We
have five or six pitchers in the
sophomore class that might
get an opportunity.”
Middleton’s offense should
be strong, as well.
Senior Alan Roden, a four-
year varsity player, will power
the Cardinals’ attack. Roden
led Middleton with a .459
batting average last year and
also ranked first in on-base
percentage (.530), slugging
percentage (.600) and OPS
(1.130). Roden was first on
the team in home runs (two),
RBI (16) and hits (39), second
in doubles (four) and third in
runs scored (16).
Roden, a University of
Creighton recruit, has played
catcher his first three seasons
at MHS. But Middleton short-
stop Joel Ticknor is out at
least a month with an elbow
injury, so Roden will move to
shortstop for the time being.
“Oh, he can do it,” Schmitt
said of Roden. “He’s a special
kid, a smart kid.
“I told him at the start of
the year that it was a lot of fun
watching him play basketball
this winter. Now I’m excited
to have him for another year
of baseball.”
Senior Zach Shipley earned
honorable-mention all-con-
ference honors last season.
Shipley ranked second on the
team in hits (23), tied for sec-
ond in doubles (four) and tied
for third in RBI (14).
Shipley played first base,
designated hitter and catcher
and excelled at them all. With
Roden moving to shortstop,
Shipley will open this year
behind the plate.
Brady Schmitt and Schulz
will man first base. Senior
Nolan Kelliher and junior
Dylan Carrington are vying
for time at second base, while
senior Noah Casali will play
third base.
Luke Ballweg will play left
field when he isn’t pitching,
junior Cooper Holewinski will
play center and senior Nick
Michaels will be in right.
“I think they can all go
get it,” Tom Schmitt said of
his outfielders. “They all have
strong arms and good bats.”
Tom Schmitt has led
Middleton to state seven times
during his first 15 seasons.
In 2016, Tom Schmitt and
his son, Brennan, reached the
state tournament together.
Now, Tom Schmitt would
love to make his final year
with Brady unforgettable and
reach another state tourna-
ment.
“We played better as last
year went along and we’ve got
a lot of those guys back,” Tom
Schmitt said. “I just think we
have a lot of maturity and
another year of growth, which
is going to help us a lot.”
Let the journey begin.

NOTICE OF SPRING ELECTION
April 3, 2018
OFFICE OF MIDDLETON-CROSS PLAINS AREA SCHOOL
DISTRICT CLERK
TO THE ELECTORS OF DANE COUNTY:
Notice is hereby given of a nonpartisan spring election to be
held in the several wards in the County of Dane on April 3, 2018,
at which the officers named below shall be nominated. The
names of the candidates for each office to be voted for, whose
nominations have been certified to or filed in this office, are given
under the title of the office, each in its proper column, together
with the question submitted to a vote, for a referendum, if any, in
the sample ballot.
INFORMATION TO ELECTORS
Upon entering the polling place, an elector shall state his or
her name and address and sign the poll book before being per-
mitted to vote. Where ballots are distributed to electors, the ini-
tials of two inspectors must appear on the ballot. Upon being per-
mitted to vote, the elector shall retire alone to a voting booth or
machine and cast his or her ballot, except that an elector who is
a parent or guardian may be accompanied by the elector’s minor
child or minor ward. An election official may inform the elector of
the proper manner for casting a vote, but the official may not in
any manner advise or indicate a particular voting choice.
Where an optical scan system is used, the elector shall con-
nect the arrow next to the name of the candidate of his or her
choice for each office for which he or she intends to vote. To vote
for a person whose name does not appear on the ballot, the elec-
tor shall write in the name of the person of his or her choice in the
space provided, and connect the arrow next to the write-in line.
On referendum questions, the elector shall connect the arrow
next to “yes” if in favor of the question, or connect the arrow next
to “no” if opposed to the question.
The vote shall not be cast in any other manner. If the elector
spoils a paper or optical scan ballot, he or she shall return it to an
election official who shall issue another ballot in its place, but not
more than three ballots shall be issued to any one elector. If the
ballot has not been initialed by two inspectors or is defective in
any other way, the elector shall return it to the election official
who shall issue a proper ballot in its place. The elector may spoil
a touch screen ballot at the voting station. Not more than five
minutes’ time shall be allowed inside a voting booth. Sample bal-
lots or other materials to assist the elector in casting his or her
vote may be taken into the booth and copied. The sample ballot
shall not be shown to anyone so as to reveal how the ballot is
marked.
After an official optical scan ballot is marked, it shall be insert-
ed in the security sleeve so the marks do not show. After casting
his or her vote, the elector shall insert the ballot in the voting
device and discard the sleeve. The elector shall leave the polling
place promptly.
An elector may select an individual to assist in casting his or
her vote if the elector declares to the presiding official that he or
she is unable to read, has difficulty reading, writing, or under-
standing English, or that due to disability is unable to cast his or
her ballot. The selected individual rendering assistance may not
be the elector’s employer or an agent of that employer or an offi-
cer or agent of a labor organization which represents the elector.
The following is a sample of the official ballot for the Middleton
Cross Plains Area School District.

Notice is hereby given of the Spring Local Election to be held in the Village of Cross Plains on April
4, 2017 at which the officers named below shall be chosen. The names of the candidates for each
office to be voted for, whose nominations have been certified to or filed in this office, are given under
the title of the office, each in its proper column, together with the questions submitted to a vote, for a
referendum, if any, in the sample ballot below.

INFORMATION TO ELECTORS

Upon entering the polling place, a voter shall state his or her name and address, show an accept-
able form of photo identification and sign the poll book before being permitted to vote. If a voter is not
registered to vote, a voter may register to vote at the polling place serving his or her residence, if the
voter presents proof of residence in a form specified by law. Where ballots are distributed to voters,
the initials of two inspectors must appear on the ballot. Upon being permitted to vote, the voter shall
retire alone to a voting booth and cast his or her ballot, except that a voter who is a parent or guardian
may be accompanied by the voter’s minor child or minor ward. An election official may inform the voter
of the proper manner for casting a vote, but the official may not in any manner advise or indicate a
particular voting choice.

AT THE SPRING ELECTION

The voter shall fill in the oval next to the name of the candidate of his or her choice for each office
for which he or she intends to vote. To vote for a person whose name does not appear on the ballot,
the voter shall write in the name of the person of his or her choice in the space provided and fill in the
oval next to the write-in line. On referendum questions, the voter shall fill in the oval next to “yes” if in
favor of the question or fill in the oval next to “no” if opposed to the question.

When using an electronic ballot marking device (“Automark”) to mark an optical scan ballot, the
voter shall touch the screen at the name of the candidate of his or her choice for each office for which
he or she intends to vote. To vote for a person whose name does not appear on the ballot, the voter
shall type in the name of the person of his or her choice in the space provided for a write-in vote. On
referendum questions, the voter shall touch the screen at “yes” if in favor of the question, or the voter
shall touch the screen at “no” if opposed to the question.

WHERE OPTICAL SCAN VOTING IS USED

The vote should not be cast in any other manner. Not more than five minutes’ time shall be allowed
inside a voting booth. Sample ballots or other materials to assist the elector in casting his or her vote
may be taken into the booth and copied. The sample ballot shall not be shown to anyone so as to
reveal how the ballot is marked.

If the elector spoils an optical scan ballot, he or she shall return it to an election official who shall
issue another ballot in its place, but not more than three ballots shall be issued to any one elector. If
the ballot has not been initialed by two inspectors or is defective in any other way, the elector shall
return it to the election official, who shall issue a proper ballot in its place. After casting his or her vote,
the elector shall leave the voting booth, properly deposit the ballot and promptly leave the polling
place.

AFTER MARKING THE BALLOT
