The rich flavors of

Amber Indian Cuisine
by MATT GEIGER
Times-Tribune
The moment when a spongy

gulab jamun - deep golden in
color, wonderfully leaden with
syrup and perfectly round
drops onto a plate or into a bowl

is always met with both anticipation and a wistful sigh.
It is, in part, because fried,
milk-based dumplings flavored
with cardamom are rich and delicious. Its also because they
tend to mark the waning mo-
ments of that delightful

marathon of flavors that make
up a typical Indian buffet.

has long been home to a superb

Skylar Witte, who is currently Miss Wisconsin USA, visited the Middleton Senior Center
on Tuesday, December 20. She is a sophomore at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and
the granddaughter of Middleton residents Sandy and Harvey Witte.
Seen here here with her grandparents, Witte was crowned in the fall and is the youngest
Miss Wisconsin USA at the age of 19. She addressed local seniors about her journey to become Miss Wisconsin as well as talking about the next steps in competing in the Miss USA
pageant in 2017.
She also shared with them her platform, which includes following your dreams and has an
emphasis of speaking to middle school children. She explained that she remembers what an
awkward time middle school is for students, and is hopeful that speaking to them will help to
inspire them to realize they are just like everyone else. She says they will get through the middle school years and can determine their own destiny - to become whatever they want - even
Miss Wisconsin USA and hopefully, as in Skylars dream, Miss USA.
Watch for future updates on Skylar as she continues on her path to the Miss USA Pageant.

Middleton High School in
2003. During his time as a high
school student, Fischer took
every art class possible.
After graduation, he packed
his bags and headed west. Currently, Fischer lives in Bozeman, Montana where his work
is emracing the vast ganduer of
the space he inhabits.

Middleton Times Tribune:

What was your progression as
an artist
Fischer: Ive always been

artistic. When I was around
five or six years old, my dad

made me sit down and draw
with him. I could watch an hour
of TV in exchange for an hour
of art.
Art was a big part of living in
our house. My dad was a
teacher and had his own computer art business as well. And,
I have a cousin, Wayne Fischer,
who is a ceramics artist in
France.
Bobbie Elland was the art
teacher at Middleton High
School. I was in his classroom
as often as possible. I think that
I took every class that MHS had
to offer.
During study halls, I would

ers. But, I knew that I didnt

want to spend my life in front of
computers.
MTT: What took you out
West?
Fischer: After high school I

got a summer job as a porter in
the Lake Yellowstone Hotel. I
thought I would just work one
summer and then go to college.
But, then I got a job in Death
Valley in the winter and went
back to Yellowstone the next
summer. Then, I worked in the

Grand Canyon the following
winter and back to Yellowstone
for a third summer.
Thats when I met my wife.
We were married by my best
friend from Yellowstone. The
group of friends that I met during that time are still really
close.
They are the reason I moved
to the Bozeman area. We all
thought it would be a good
place to settle into. At first I just
did odd jobs.
Then, for two years I went to

school in Savannah, Georgia to
study art. It wasnt for me.
So I went back to Bozeman.
MTT: What type of art do

you create?
Fischer: My large works

are oils and the smaller ones are
ink and watercolor. I mostly
deal with landscapes.
I call myself a narrative landscape artist. Its a term that I
never heard before but it fits
what I do because my work

evokes a story.
It comes from how much
time I take to paint the image.
One of the paintings thats featured in the show in Bozeman is
4 h x 8 w.
Every square inch was
painted with a small brush. It
took three months of pretty constant work. The landscape
starts to tell its story as you
paint it.
MTT: Do you paint from a
photograph?
Fischer: I dont use a solid

reference. I use a combination
of things. The 4 x 8 painting
was inspired after doing a three
day hike in the Tetons.
I came out thinking that I
wanted to paint the entire hike
in one painting. So, I used
Google Earth, some photographs of the hike and my memory.
The painting ends up being
organized in a semi-realistic
way. The nice part of doing it

that way is that if something
from Google Earth doesnt line
up with what Im painting, I just
move it.
That way Im creating. Its
freeing. My paintings are based
on something, rather than being
copied from something.
MTT: Are you earning your

living as an artist?
Fischer: Not yet. Im a full

time carpenter but make time
for painting because I love to do
it. Its hard on my wife sometime, that Im so busy.
All of my original work is for
sale. A lot of interest was generated from the show at the
Bozeman Public Library. Ive
also had a few shows in small
galleries out here.
Restaurants and pubs in the
area display artists work as
well. They get good art for their
walls and the artists get exposure and sales.
Brightening the holidays

Hundreds of dollars in gift
cards, barrels of food, boxes of
toys, and countless household
items were donated by Telephone and Data Systems Inc.,
TDS Telecom, and their employees. Earlier this week, all
the donations were sorted,
packed, and delivered to more
than a dozen area non-profit organizations just in time to
brighten the recent holidays for
those in need.
There were also about 50 individuals and dozens of families
who received hand-selected and
gifts
through
wrapped
thePorchlightAngels program.
TDS employees have been
teaming with Porchlight, a local
agency working to decrease the
homeless population, since
2011, serving as Angels and
helping those in need.
Its heartwarming and inspiring to watch employee after
employee stroll out of the building to deliver their wrapped
gifts, says Andrew Petersen,
VP of External Affairs and
Communications at TDS. As
they hand the gifts to waiting
Porchlight employees, they
know their hand-selected gift
will soon be delivered to someone who otherwise would go
without. Every year, we have
more employees volunteering to
be a Porchlight Angel. Its extremely moving!
Im proud to work here and
to see the level of employee involvement this time of year,
says Petersen. Whats remarkable, though, is that our employees give year-round.
Helping others is just part of our
culture. Whether volunteering
or donating their time, they are
always very generous.

City council directs staff to look

at funding options for town square
by CAMERON BREN
Times-Tribune
The Middleton City Council

has approved a recommendation from the plan commission
to have planning staff investigate funding options for a proposed $2 million town square in
the downtown.
City staff say they wont
know until they start, but it may
be possible to cover half or
more of the total cost.
The developer behind Middleton Center, Terrence Wall, is
in negotiations to purchase
three existing residential buildings on the site across the street
from his current project. He initially planned to develop more
mixed-use buildings but due to
significant costs because of
Middletons soils he says hed
rather it be used for a town
square. He says the city could
then either use tax increment financing (TIF) or fundraising or
both to purchase the land for his
acquisition cost of $1.3 million.
Wall says for a total cost of
$1,996,940 the city could have
a downtown green space with
rotating public art, a mini train
track in summer and ice rink in
winter, benches, a B-Cycle station, digital programmable sig-

nage, and a stage with canopy.

The city council previously
rejected the plan after it was referred to the parks committee
which reported that the $1.3
million cost was not justified by
the amount of park space the
city was gaining, nor was there
a need for additional park space
downtown, they said.
Wall brought it back for consideration and said he was
aware of a potential donor and
was confident the city could
raise at least half if not all of the
cost. The city could use TIF for
the purpose of removing blight,
Wall said.
Director of community development Abby Attoun said
those properties were not currently identified as blight, but
did say it would be possible to
use TIF for creating a public
plaza or parking. She showed
images of a public plaza in Iowa
City. She pointed out that
Monona used TIF to fund a
public plaza, a project Wall was
also involved in.
Attoun said she asked the TIF
staff team two questions. Is it
good location for a public plaza,
to which they unanimously said
yes; and if it a large enough
space for a public plaza, to
which the answer was also yes.
She said it was comparable in
size to the Capital Brewery beer
garden.
We could create a lively
gathering place in downtown
Middleton, Attoun said. It
would provide people something else to do when they come
downtown to eat and shop. It is
in a central location and we
think it is well sized for a public
plaza.
Attoun noted the possibility
for other funding sources. Wall
has said he has a commitment
from an anonymous donor,
though we dont have anything
in writing, she said. The city
could also approach the tourism
commission.
The cost is the greatest con
Attoun said but maybe not the
greatest obstacle with other
funding sources.
I dont think that any one
funding source is going to get
us to the $1.4 million plus the
cost to redevelop the property,
but if you look at all of the potential funding sources there is
a possibility it might make
sense for the city, she said.
There are other costs as well
she noted there would be annual
maintenance costs and loss of
tax revenue. The properties pay
about $18,000 annually of
which about $6,000 goes to the
city.
Attoun pointed out that the
properties are all currently

PAGE 7
The lack of affordable housing in our community, along with underemployment, makes it hard for many to make ends meet
by AL RIPP
Executive Director, MOM
Every year around the holidays, the MOM facilities are

buzzing. They are full of cheer
- people picking up holiday
gifts from our Sharing Christmas program, businesses and
families dropping off food and
financial donations, and grocery
stores providing boxes of excess food and produce. The
joy is palpable and smiles
abound.
But it doesnt hide the tears
of sadness and despair.
When we hear words like:
My husband lost his job a few
months ago, and just cant find
a good job that will pay enough
for our familys expenses, or,
Shes been sick for months, but
now its gotten so much worse,
it reminds us of the growing
need in our area. The holidays
dont stop the fear of what life
is bringing around the bend. I
bet you know a bit of how that
feels yourself.
Yet, even with that sadness
and the uncertainty of the future
of our social safety network,
there is hope that MOM can
offer, thanks to a community
who so generously cares and is
part of MOM in heart and soul.
From backpacks and school
supplies, to clothing, warm
coats and 1.4 million pounds of
food for thousands of individuals, MOM has the privilege to
distribute hope in times of darkness and in times of joy. Mission: Possible.

In 2016, MOM served an average of 65 households a day, 6
days a week. Case Managers
met with more than 130 households every month (including,
on average, 24 new to MOM),
and we again distributed more
food than ever before. Within
each program, we were able to
adjust to better meet the needs
of the community. In the Food
Pantry, for example, we continue to explore ways to increase the number of healthy
and protein-filled food options.
In the housing assistance program we are exploring ways to
assist people who are working
yet still homeless, and the people who cant afford the costs of
their current housing.
These programs are bolstered
by the communitys generous
financial support, the hundreds
of volunteers and the service
hours you provide, and new and
continued collaborations. Our
space allows us to work with
other agencies bringing about
change to the benefit of people
in our community, including
partnerships with Joining
Forces for Families, Domestic
Abuse Intervention Services,
UW Extensions Nutrition Education program, and the UWs
Food Science program, just to
name a few. And we will continue to develop partnerships
with other agencies and businesses like a local dental firm

that is offering free dental care
one day per month to those who
use MOMs services.
Our families and individuals
are up against what can seem
like unsurmountable odds. The
lack of affordable housing in
our community, along with underemployment, makes it hard
for many to make ends meet
after the bills are paid. Any one
emergency can mean that they
may not have food for breakfast, lunch and dinner, or face
the possibility of being evicted
with few other choices to keep
a roof over their head.
I often think about Mary.
Owen, her son, has a disability,
and that meant a lot of medical
costs for her family. She stayed
afloat, until one day, an additional and unexpected expense
threw off the whole balance,
and everything started falling
apart.
Mary felt despair. When she
came to MOM for help, she didnt know how she was going to
get through even another week.
MOMs case managers were
able to provide immediate rent
and utility bill assistance to
keep her and Owen in their
housing. The use of the Clothing Center and the Food Pantry
helped save their limited resources for other needed expenses, and they were able to
eat healthy without sacrificing
Hard at work at the Middleton Outreach Ministry Food Pantry.
their other immediate medical

needs.
You might be surprised
where poverty is hiding. It
could be a friend, a co-worker
or someone that you sit next to
in your place of worship.
There are so many different
reasons why people find themselves in need of assistance.
For some its the loss of a job.
Unemployment Insurance is
helpful, but the wait and low
amount of replacement income
caused one family to miss their
rent payment, which was
quickly followed by a five-day
notice and the immediate threat
of eviction. They went from
stable to potentially homeless in
just a few short months.
Another woman lost time at

work for two weeks due to a
sick child who couldnt go to
school or daycare, but was too
young to stay home on their
own. Without family to help,
she was forced to stay home
from work and lost the income
she depended on to pay rent.
A single parent who had recently gone on disability due to
traumatic incidents in her own
past was having a hard time
managing her new reduced income and her childs needs and
expenses. She had skipped
meals most days for weeks by
time she visited MOM for help.
We know that 2017 will continue to bring these challenges
for many of our neighbors. The
Contributed photo
people that visit MOM will

bring with them incredible
courage and resilience, and we
will be here to offer the help and
hope needed to help them get
through tough times. We hope
you will continue to join us on
our mission to prevent homelessness and end hunger for real
people, right here in our community.
It is because of you that Mary
and Owen are now on a
brighter, more stable path. Its
through the support of the business community, our schools
and faith communities and you
that our mission IS possible.
New challenges are ahead and
with your help we can make a
difference!

AMBER
Gulabjamoon (above left) and garlic naan with pakora at Amber Indian Cuisine in Middleton.
cated on Greenway Boulevard

a new type of eastern eatery
opened in the Good Neighbor
City in 2016, and it is just one
more way to eat delicious food
without ever leaving your zip
code. Amber Indian Cuisine,
which opened its doors at 6913
University Avenue (in the same
plaza as Willy Street Co-op) last
year, offers a hearty and diverse
buffet in additional to a la carte
meals.
And before you get to the
sweet gulab jamun, rice pudding and mango ice cream that
mark the end of a journey
through the buffet, there are
plenty of savory treats to fill
you up.
Bala Polachi, one of the
restaurants co-owners, said
PAGE 9
Ambers first 10 months have

gone incredibly well. He and his
business partners have extensive experience in both hotel
and restaurant management,
both in Wisconsin and in India,
and they chose this spacious location in the Good Neighbor
City, which can seat 125 people,
because they knew it was well
equipped to accommodate
heavy foot traffic.
Polachi is partial to the
chicken tikka masala, that
iconic, orange-hued, creamy
tomato-based dish whose origins are inexorably mixed with
both India and the British Empire. (An early example of fusion, you could call it.)
The opening of another Indian restaurant in Middleton is
also part of a larger story.

Middleton, a city that is
slightly infamous in the Madison area for its perceived lack of
diversity, is increasingly bucking that concept. The city is actually home to a vibrant Indian
community, for instance and
is home to both the regions
Sikh temple and the executive
director of the internationally
famous Melharmony Foundation, which works to unify classical music from the East and
the West.
A recent weekday trip to
Amber Indian Cuisine illustrated that diversity, with
crowds of people from all walks
of life and numerous ethnic origins not just India and the
U.S. - all strolling in through the
File photo
doors and heading toward the

lavish buffet. The sounds of
English, Hindi and Mandarin
could all be overheard as they
mingled with the clatter of
dishes and the ladling of foods.
Even those who are not fluent
in the parlance of Indian food
are likely familiar with (and
fond of) naan, a traditional flat
bread cooked on the wall of a
hot tandoor oven. Ambers naan
is pleasantly chewy and loaded
with a good but not overwhelming amount of garlic.
Mainstay appetizers include
the vegetable samosa (pyramids
of crispy fried dough filled with
potatoes, green peas and
spices), as well as the vegetable
pakora, which are made by frying an assortment of vegetables
Amber Indian Cuisine is open seven days a week, offering a lunch buffet from 11:30 a.m. until 3 p.m. each
day. Dinner, which is a la carte only, is served from 510 p.m.

(most often spinach) coated in

chickpea batter.
The chicken tikka masala
was good, as promised by Polachi. It was relatively light, as
that particular dish goes, and it
appeared to be made with white
meat chicken rather than the
thighs and other, more rich cuts
of poultry that sometimes are
used in the dish.
Amber also offers an assortment of lamb and goat curries,
and, as to be expected, ample
vegetarian dishes.
There are also ruddy lamb kebabs, which are made by combining a ground lamb mixture
with ginger, garlic, onions and
other spices. There are spicy
lentils, rice pancakes, plenty of
paneer (cheese), and seafood.
And the boundaries of
Ambers menu also stretch beyond the borders of India, with
several dishes that are of Chinese provenance as well.

Middleton bounces back
Cardinals fall
to Beloit, top
Arrowhead
by ROB REISCHEL
Times-Tribune
MILWAUKEE C.J.
Fermanich was part of just
three regular season losses over
the last two years as a
Middleton football player.
Each
time,
though,
Fermanich had to wait seven
days before getting a chance at
redemption.
Yeah, thats a long time,
Fermanich said.
Basketball season provides
an opportunity to get back on
the horse much faster. And
thats just what Fermanich and
his Middleton teammates did
last weekend.
The Cardinals suffered an
85-81 loss to Big Eight
Conference
foe
Beloit
Memorial last Friday. Just 24
hours later, though, the
Cardinals erased some of that
disappointment
with
an
impressive 85-78 win over
Hartland Arrowhead at the Al
McGuire Center on the
Marquette campus.
Middleton improved to 9-2
overall and is now tied for first
place in the league with
Madison Memorial at 6-2.

Carlee Lemirande and Middletons girls basketball team

improved to 11-0 last week.
Not every night is going to

be easy.
Not every performance will
be exemplary.
The key is persevering and
emerging victorious.
Middletons girls basketball team did exactly that last
Thursday. The Cardinals
trailed host Madison La
Follette, 31-26, at halftime but
rallied for a tougher-thanexpected 56-48 win.
Middleton followed that
with a 76-22 win over Beloit
Memorial last Saturday.
The Cardinals improved to
11-0 overall and 8-0 in the Big
Eight Conference. Middleton
holds a two-game lead in the
league over Sun Prairie and
Madison East (6-2).
I like that we didnt panic
when we got behind,
Middleton coach Jeff Kind
said of the La Follette game.
We continued to grind away
even though the shots werent
falling and it wasnt particularly pretty.

Bria
Lemirande
led
Middleton with 24 points in
its win over the Lancers. Two
nights later, the Cardinals
senior standout also became
just the second player in
school history to eclipse 1,000
points in their careers, pushing her total to 1,007.
Bria scoring her 1,000thpoint is a pretty significant
accomplishment,
Kind
said. Each year her scoring
average has gone up a
little.She has played at a very
high level for a lot of games
for teams that have had pretty
balanced scoring, so it is an
impressive achievement.
Middletons rally was
awfully impressive, too.
On the Cardinals first four
possessions, they turned the
ball over three times and
missed a lay-up. Things didnt
get much better as the Lancers
raced to a 31-26 lead.
We did not come out
sharp, Kind said.And while
we were forcing turnovers on

their part,they hit some shots
and we didnt. So we found
ourselves having to grind it
out.
And grind it out they did.
Middleton shot just 18-of71 (25.3%) overall and 5-of30 from three-point range
(16.7%). The key was the
Cardinals forced 41 turnovers,
which helped them take 28
more shots than La Follette.
Our
shooting
didnt
improve much, Kind said.
We did manage to take care
of the ball better as the game
went on and continued to
force them into mistakes.
Middleton played much
better in a rout of Beloit
Memorial last Saturday.
The Cardinals took a 46-4
halftime lead and cruised to
their most lopsided win of the
year.
All 15 Middleton players
scored against Beloit and the
Cardinals forced 40 turnovers.
Middleton had just 14
turnovers of its own.
We shot much better at

Beloit and got a chance to
play a lot of people, Kind
said. We played pretty well
defensively and got to use a
lot of different combinations.
We stopped pressing after the
first 10 minutes and still
forced over 40 turnovers.

Middleton third at Marquette Invite

by ROB REISCHEL
Times-Tribune
Middletons boys swimming team had a lengthy holiday break from competition
but not from the pool.
The Cardinals had two, sixday training weeks and were
anxious to start facing actual
opponents again.
Middleton made a big
splash in its return to the pool
last week.
First, the Cardinals swept
the Janesville Craig triple dual
last Friday. Middleton toppled
the Cougars, 135-34, and
downed Beloit Memorial, 13139.
The Cardinals then finished
in third place at the 24-team,
star-studded
Marquette
Invitational last Saturday.
Marquette is a fun meet
because it is our first chance to
truly get up and race since our
winter
break
training,
Middleton
coach
Danny
Lynam said. With how the
holidays fell this year we were
able to get a lot of hard work
in. We used our triple dual the
night before to shake off some
of the rust and then the guys
were able to come in and be
highly competitive in a fast
meet.
Middleton swam awfully
well throughout the weekend.
At the Craig triple dual,

Middleton won all three relays
and seven of the eight individual events.
Junior Michael Draves,
sophomore Blake Zillner and
sophomore Chris George went
1-2-3 in the 200-yard freestyle,
while freshman Nathan Kim,
junior Sam Young and senior
John Virnig notched the top
three spots in the 200-yard IM.
Freshman Nate Lamers and
Max Hollfelder were first and
second, respectively, in the 50yard freestyle. Senior Isaac
Hanson, sophomore Andrew
Lund and senior Luke Delaney
went 1-2-3 in the 100-yard butterfly.
Draves, Zillner and Young
captured the top three spots in
the 100-yard freestyle, while
sophomore Andrew Martin and
sophomore Chris George were
first and third, respectively, in
the 500-yard freestyle.
Sophomore Archer Parkin
won the 100-yard backstroke
and senior Erick Grelle was
second.
Senior
Tommy
McGovern was second in the
100-yard breaststroke and
sophomore Jack Mondi was
third.
Middleton also rolled
through the relays.
The quartet of Parkin,
Young, Hanson and Lamers
won the 200-yard medley relay.
The foursome of Hollfelder,

Kim, Lund and Draves won the
200-yard freestyle relay. And
Kim, Parkin, Lamers and
Draves combined to win the
400-yard freestyle relay.
Middleton then performed
extremely well and finished
third at the Marquette Invite.
Madison West won the meet
with 320 points, while
Waukesha
South/Catholic
Memorial (306.5), Middleton
(253), Brookfield (249) and
Sauk Prairie (173) rounded out
the top five.
Middletons
400-yard
freestyle relay team of Kim,
Parkin, Lamers and Draves was
third. The Cardinals 200-yard
medley relay team of Parkin,
Young, Hanson and Lamers
was fourth.
And Middletons 200-yard
freestyle relay team of
Hollfelder, senior Gunnar
Kunsch, Lund and Draves was
10th.
Draves finished third in the
200-yard freestyle and third in
the 500-yard freestyle. Kim
and Martin were also eighth
and ninth, respectively, in the
500-yard freestyle.
Kim was fourth in the 200yard IM, while Parkin was
sixth in the 100-yard backstroke and Lamers was ninth.
Hanson was seventh in the
100-yard butterfly and Delaney
was eighth.
Parkin was seventh in the
Michael Draves and Middletons boys swimming team finished third at the Marquette
Invitational last Saturday.
50-yard freestyle and Lamers

was seventh in the 100-yard
freestyle. Young was also 10th
in the 100-yard breaststroke
and senior Noah Krantz was
10th in the diving competition.
It is a good feeling for all
of them to be able to show off
how much their hard work and
dedication has paid off,
Lynam said. We had a number
of lifetime bests and everyone
was feeling competitive in their
racing. I look forward to continuing this momentum as we
start getting into some more
competitive meets and then
postseason.

Middleton will see this year,
fell to 7-4.
Its better to play back-toback I think because you don't
have that feeling of losing a
game sitting with you all
week, Fermanich said. Yes,
we lost (Friday) night, but we
came here ready and focused
and got the win.
Middleton did exactly that.
The Cardinals built an early
14-point lead, held off a late
charge by the extremely gifted
Warhawks, and notched one of
their more impressive wins of
the season.
Senior forward Tyree Eady
didn't start the game as punishment for receiving a technical
foul the previous night in
Beloit. But Eady led the
Cardinals with 22 points and
eclipsed the 1,000-point barrier
in his Middleton career.
Eady pushed his MHS total
to 1,016 points, which is the
most since Kevin Bavery took
over as coach in 2006.
Senior point guard Storm
Murphy added 16 points, while
senior forward Ben Jackson
knocked down 3 three-pointers
and had 16 points. Fermanich
was also huge, scoring 14
points and limiting Arrowhead
leading
scorer
Trevell
Cunningham to 12 points
eight under his average.
C.J. just has that football
toughness, said Middleton
assistant coach Tim Simon,
who doubles as the Cardinals
football coach in the fall.
Thats what I love about the
guy. He doesnt care if he
scores points or not. He just
wants to win.
Middleton used an early run

and some clutch plays late
to make sure winning was in
the cards.
The Cardinals used an early
13-2 burst to grab a 20-10 lead
and establish control of the
game. Murphy hit a pair of
three-pointers in the run and
Fermanich scored five points.
Arrowhead crept within 3531 late in the first half. But
Eady drove for a basket, then
stuck a three-pointer to give
Middleton a 40-31 halftime
lead.
Theyre such a tough
matchup, Bavery said of
Arrowhead. They pretty much
returned everybody and so did
we. So it was a great test.
Middletons lead was 49-42
early in the second half when
Jackson went on one of the
more unexpected tears of the
Cardinals season.
Jackson entered the night
with 20 total points on the season. But in a matter of just 1
minute, 51 seconds, Jackson
erupted for 11 points and the
Cardinals lead grew to 60-48.
First, Jackson hit a midrange jumper, then he drilled a
three-pointer 30 seconds later.
Jackson drained another threeball 16 seconds after that and
hit another three-pointer less
than a minute later.
When Bavery sent in a substitute for Jackson, the boisterous crowd groaned in disapproval.
Hes one of our better
shooters, Bavery said of
Jackson. But he had never
done anything like that in a
game. It was pretty neat.
Arrowhead wouldnt go
away, though, and pulled within four points twice in the final
four minutes. But each and
every time, Middleton had an
answer.
When the Warhawks clawed
within 75-71 with 3:45 left,
Eady had a huge basket and
Middleton pushed its lead back
to eight. And when Arrowhead
came within 82-78 with 17 seconds left, Myron Ashford Jr.
drilled a pair of big free throws.
(Friday) night was a big
disappointment, Bavery said
of the Beloit loss. It was a
tough trip and an emotional
loss. So to come out and play
well against a really, really
good Arrowhead team is big.
The Cardinals werent nearly as big against the Purple
Knights the previous night.
Middleton fell behind by as
many as 18 points early and
trailed, 51-39, at halftime. The
Cardinals came as close as two
points in the second half, but
never could get over the hump.
Bavery, one of the more
mild-mannered coaches in the
sport, received the first technical of his 26-year varsity
career. And Eady received a
technical foul, as well, which
led to him not starting the next
night.
Murphy led the Cardinals
with 30 points, while Eady had
27 and Fermanich added 11.
And while the Beloit loss
was tough to stomach,
Middletons response 24 hours
later was an enormous positive.
To win the Big Eight,
youre going to take blows,
Fermanich said. But you just
have to get up. I think weve
taken our blows, and hopefully

Hockey Cardinals fall twice

PAGE 16
It was a rough week for

Middletons hockey team.
The Cardinals dropped a 5-1
decision to Sun Prairie last
Thursday. Middleton then fell to
Madison Memorial, 2-1, last
Saturday.
The Cardinals are now 7-5
overall and 4-4 in the Big Eight
Conference. Middleton sits in
fifth place in the league.
Sun Prairie jumped to a 2-0
lead in the first period. Thats
when Jake Feldt scored a power
play goal on assists from Zach

Heidel and Preston Lewis with
just 1:18 left in the period to pull
Middleton within 2-1.
But Sun Prairie scored once
in the second period and two
more times in the third.
Against Madison Memorial,
Middleton struck first when
Heidel scored an even strength
goal just 4:49 into the second
period. But Memorial got the
equalizer just two minutes later,
then notched the game-winner
just 45 seconds into the third

period.
