MHS' boys spikers take aim at a title

The goal was never an unbeaten season.

No, the objective was always a gold ball.

Now, Middleton’s boys volleyball team has an opportunity to get two for the price of one.

The Cardinals rolled past Madison West, 25-15, 25-18, 25-23, in a WIAA sectional final last Saturday. Middleton now takes aim at its second state championship in three years.

The Cardinals improved to 36-0 overall and are the No. 1 seed at state, where they’ll face eighth-seeded Kenosha Indian Trail in a state semifinal Wednesday at 7 p.m. at the Resch Center in Green Bay.

The state semifinals are Thursday and the state finals are Friday.

And if things go according to plan for the No. 1 ranked Cardinals, they’ll be hoisting a gold ball at some point on Friday evening.
