Schultz powers MHS golfers

Submitted by MTT News Desk on Wed, 09/04/2013 - 09:47

 

Hunter Schultz has been a four-year varsity player for Middleton’s girls golf team. And it certainly seems like Schultz is ready to make her final year her best yet.

Schultz, whose game has consistently improved this season, captured medalist honors at last Thursday’s Madison East Triangular. Schultz shot a 2-over-par 38 at Monona Golf Course and powered the Cardinals to an easy win.

Middleton shot a 164 at its first Big Eight Conference meet of the year and easily outdistanced Sun Prairie (191) and Madison East (254).

“I am really happy with Hunter’s score both yesterday and over the past couple of weeks,” Middleton coach Becky Halverson said. “She has definitely stepped it up and is getting to where we need her to be consistently.”

Middleton also counted 42s from sophomore Loren Skibba, senior Sheenagh Cleary and freshman Alexis Thomas.

Middleton’s girls tennis team opened the Big Eight Conference season in style.

The Cardinals rolled past Madison Memorial, 6-1, last Wednesday.

Middleton also defeated Beloit Memorial, 7-0, last Thursday.

“The conference is looking deep,” Middleton coach Deke Bradley said. “We have some work to do to improve our doubles play. We looked a little off against Memorial, but we're coming along.”

Against Madison Memorial, Bridget Bellissimo rolled to a 6-1, 6-0 win at No. 1 singles and Kaisey Skibba notched a 6-0, 6-1 win at No. 2 singles. Emily Oberwetter and Madison Krigbaum both notched 6-1, 6-1 wins at No. 3 and 4 singles, respectively.

In doubles play, Allison Ragsdale and Darcy Hogendorn earned a 6-0, 6-1 win at No. 1. And at No. 2, Abbey Webber and Baylie Gold rolled to a 6-1, 6-2 win.

Middleton swimmers start in style

Submitted by MTT News Desk on Wed, 09/04/2013 - 09:45

Middleton’s girls swimmers opened the season in style with a 139-31 win over Beloit Memorial last Friday.

The Cardinals finished first and second in every event. Middleton also had the top three finishers in several events.

“This was a great first meet for us,” Middleton coach Lauren Cabalka said. “We were able to get a glimpse of what our very young team is capable of as well as our areas of strength and weakness lie.

“The first meet is always kind of a guessing game, but even more so this year. To their credit, the girls really stepped up and had some nice races.”

Middleton junior Paige Prestigiacomo, senior Olivia Kossel and junior Lauren Kalvin went 1-2-3 in the 200 yard freestyle. Cardinals senior Maddy Mack, junior Maggie Mangas and junior Erin McShane were the top three finishers in the 200 yard IM.
