Middleton boys soccer coach Kevin Pauls called it “amazing.”
Cardinals girls swimming coach R.J. Leiferman used terms like “exciting” and “proud.”
And MHS boys volleyball coach Dylan Griffith said he was “very happy.”
It’s easy to see why as Middleton’s athletic department made history during the 2023-24 school year.
The Wisconsin Interscholastic Athletic Association and Wisconsin Independent Schools Athletic Association merged their organizations in the fall of 2000. In the time since then, Hartland Arrowhead set the record for most WIAA Division 1 state championships in one school year with five in the 2008-09 campaign.
Middleton matched that total during the 2023-24 school year, winning state titles in boys soccer, boys volleyball, girls swimming, boys swimming and boys lacrosse.
After tying Arrowhead for this historic achievement, those responsible for this remarkable feat were beaming.
