Its 9:45 and a slow Saturday night in the city. Downtown Stoughton resembles a
ghost town. Despite it being
a warm summer night, theres
no one on the street, and its
eerily quiet.
Quiet, that is, until you turn
off Main Street, head down
Water Street and pull up in
front of Cullys Cocktail
Lounge.
Thats where Renee Johnsons Blue Moon Karaoke is
in full swing. Inside the small
bar, theres a crowd of 15 to
25 singers, along with a few
onlookers, having an absolutely great time. You can
feel the energy immediately.
Cullys is where KJ (karaoke jock) Renee and her
crowd of singers gather
almost every weekend to
sing, dance and enjoy each
others company.
Its obvious that the followers of Blue Moon Karaoke
are well acquainted. After
each singer finishes a song,
the crowd erupts in applause.

The City of Stoughton is moving forward with


a plan to create a new tax-increment financing
district as part of an expanded Business Park
North.
Commission members Monday voted to forward the plan to the Common Council despite
one concern from a business owner in the current business park. The city wants to move the
plan forward in order to create the district this
year in case glass manufacturer Guardian Interior Glass decides to build this year.
The new TIF district (or TID) a financing
tool used by municipalities to encourage development and improve infrastructure would not
be used to pay for Guardians expenses to build
here, city finance director Laurie Sullivan said,
but would allow the city to use the increase tax
revenue from Guardian to expand the park further on about 35 acres to the north.
Tim Miller, owner of Isadex Corp., said hed
like to see expansion and growth, but had concerns about the city putting what he thought
would be a heavy industrial site near other small
businesses and residential properties.
It takes a successful business park and puts
it into an island of light industrial surrounded
by heavy industrial, Miller said. Values are

City holds discussion on economic analysis


Jim Ferolie

The Common Council


and Planning Commission
will hold a joint meeting
Thursday to discuss the
long-awaited Kettle Park
West economic impact
analysis.
The analysis, required

by city policy as part of


the big-box ordinance,
was not discussed publicly
before the city approved
a developers agreement
with Forward Development
Group at KPW. That agreement contained a provision
requiring the construction
of a building of not less
than 150,000 square feet, as

well as $5.1 million worth


of traffic and site improvements paid for by a yet-tobe created tax-increment
financing (TIF) district.
FDG announced in January that the anchor retailer
in that development would
be a Wal-mart Supercenter.

Sheriff warns of phone scam


The Dane County Sheriffs Office issued a warning Tuesday about a phone
scam circulating in the
area where callers are
using scare tactics and
posing as law enforcement.
According to a press
release from the Sheriffs
Office, in the past few
weeks, several people said
they received a phone call
or message in reference to
a variety of legal issues.
The scammer then directs
them to immediately call
the main number to the
Sheriffs Office for follow-up.
The scammers claim
they are calling to collect
a debt or back taxes, and
then threaten that an arrest
warrant will be issued if
the call is not returned in

a timely manner. If the


victim answers the phone,
they are often asked for
personal information about
his or her family members.
According to the Sheriffs Office, no local law
enforcement agency collects fees in this manner,
nor would law enforcement contact citizens by
telephone and ask for this
type of personal information. The Dane County
Sheriffs Office is making
every attempt to investigate the source of these
phone calls.
If people receive a call
or message like this and
the caller ID shows 608284-6800, they are asked
to not call the 6800 number, but report it to the tip
line at 284-6900.

Wal-Marts most recent open house drew people curious about the development project proposed for the corner of Hwy. 51 and Hwy 138.

Analysis: Meeting Sept. 11


Continued from page 1
The city did not vote to
order the economic impact
analysis until April 8, and
it was initially due in June.
The $16,525 report was
expected to take about
three months.
However, the council
postponed plans for creating a TIF district in late
June because the analysis
was not yet ready. In addition to a months delay
because FDG did not produce a required $50,000
deposit immediately, the
developer also admitted
to the Common Council it
had not yet provided all of
the financial information
that was requested.
The users were dealing with are tight-lipped

on their financials,
FDGs Dennis Steinkraus
told the council June 24.
Thursdays meeting will
be in the form of a Committee of the Whole, with
no action allowed. It is
scheduled to include a
presentation from Mary
Bujold from Maxfield
Research on the analysis.
A public comment period
is part of the agenda, with
comments limited to three
minutes.
The citys finance committee also was scheduled
to discuss the KPW project this week, with a Tuesday meeting that included
a conference call with an
appraiser on projected
assessed values of the
development.

chance last week to review
the latest store design
for Wal-Marts proposed
superstore inside Kettle
Park West.
The dozen or so attendees who stopped by to
chat with Wal-Mart officials and the development
team for Kettle Park West
seemed mostly supportive of the project, though
some still had questions
and reservations.
The store described
as the only of its kind by
architect Gabriel Massa draws on cues from
Stoughtons downtown.
The 153,000 square-foot
store has facades that
would face Hwys. 138 and

heights and depths of features that differ from the


typical blue box store
sometimes associated with
the companys stores.
The store designs have

Doing battle with disease

Unified Newspaper Group

Ebola. Anthrax. Tuberculosis.


With deadly communicable diseases like these still
on the loose, this increasingly interconnected world
can certainly be a scary
place.
And thats where
Michelle Storage comes in.
The 2008 Stoughton
High School graduate
recently won a research
scholarship worth more
than $300,000 to pursue
her dreams of earning a
Ph.D. in interdisciplinary biomedical sciences
at the Medical College of
Wisconsin in Milwaukee
this fall. When she graduates, she wants to pursue
a career with the national
Centers For Disease Control, developing vaccines to
fight diseases that can kill
thousands, if not millions
of people if unchecked.
Storage, who doublemajored in cell biology and
chemistry at UW-Whitewater, graduating this
spring, will receive around
$61,000 a year for the next
five years as she works her
way toward her goal.
Originally, Storage
didnt want to go to college at all, but instead train
to be a pharmacist, which
was her long-time career
goal, having worked in a
pharmacy while in middle
school and high school.
Also, her father was a medical corpsman in the Navy,
so she was always interested in science, and helping
people.
Eventually, she was talked into attending college
and only applied to Whitewater because of its proximity to home.
Mom made me go, and
really glad she did, Storage said.
Up until last year, she
had her sights on doing
research for the UW-Madison School of Pharmacy,
receiving undergraduate
honors and double-majoring in chemistry and cell
biology. But when she
had a chance to travel to
India to do research work
this summer, her entire
perspective on careers
changed.
Storage was one of 12
UW-Whitewater students
to travel to Hyderabad,
India, for a six week summer research project funded by the National Science
Foundation. There, she
conducted research and
collaborated with scientists from around the world
at the Indian Institute of
Chemical Technology an

2008 SHS graduate
Michelle Storage credits
one of her science teachers at Stoughton High
School, Eric Benedict,
for giving her opportunities for more responsibility as a student that
helped guide her toward
the path shes taken.
He allowed me to
tutor students and be a
teachers assistant, she
said. I spent a lot of time
in there, cleaning glassware, helping kids do
math problems. It really
got me started, him letting me hang out there all
the time.
Storage said she didnt
have super grades in
high school, but later
learned that what colleges were really looking for
were hard workers who
had a passion for their
chosen field.
They want someone
who really cares, she
said. By no means am
I a genius; I just work
extremely hard.

really matters to you that
you really care about,
and that will give you
what you need.

eye-opening experience in
more than one way.
It was all graduate students, and we were these
undergrads from America
in a lab with people putting in 10-hour days in
100-degree labs, she said.
They were really hardcore there.
Besides the soaring temperatures and cockroaches
everywhere, life outside
her comfort zone in Wisconsin brought her to some
stark realizations about her
own life, and her career
path.
The lack of medicine
really made me want to get
into science even more,
and help everybody, Storage said.

Moving on
When she returned,
she decided to apply for
the doctorate program at
the Medical College of
Wisconsin; a prestigious
school thats very difficult
to get into, she said, only
taking on 16 new students
this fall.
It was pretty rough,
Storage said. Youve got
people applying from all
over the world; people
applying also to Harvard,
and Im coming from
Whitewater.
The program is intensive,

he had left the district.
Amato worked as a oneyear temporary teacher and
coach for the Stoughton
Area School District from
Aug. 28, 2013 to June 10,
2014, teaching high school
social studies and serving as
a freshman football coach,
eighth-grade boys basketball coach and assistant
boys tennis coach.
He was hired in July by
the Oregon School district to be the assistant
girls tennis coach, and had
worked with the team for a
few weeks before officials
there learned of a criminal
investigation and put him
on administrative leave last
week, said Oregon School
District superintendent
Brian Busler. When district officials got a copy of
the criminal complaint on
Wednesday, his contract
was terminated immediately.
Busler said nothing
improper came up in the districts criminal background
check of Amato. He said the
high school athletic director recently talked with the
tennis players and coaches
about the matter, and they
didnt report any similar
incidents with Amato.

Alleged incidents

2008 Stoughton High School graduate Michelle Storage is shown


here working earlier this year in a laboratory at the University
of Wisconsin-Whitewater, where she graduated in spring with a
double major in chemistry and cell biology. Storage recently won a
scholarship worth more than $300,000 for a doctorate degree program at the Medical College of Wisconsin.

and not surprisingly, the


package for students is
lucrative, including a
$20,000-a year-stipend as
part of a scholarship package worth $61,000 a year.
Storage said it will likely
take at least five years to
graduate with a Ph. D.
When they asked me
where I wanted to work,
I said anything pathology related, to get as much
experience as I can with
diseases, she said.
At the school, shes
working with laboratory
mice to learn more about
everything from blood
clotting to placental disorders.
One thing with medical research you need to
get used to working with
live animals, Storage said.
For the past three weeks,
Ive been doing so many

got there, I was, Oh, man,

are medical doctors from


China, and are really awesome at what they do, so
Im really lucky.
When she graduates,
Storage wants to be on the
front lines, fighting communicable diseases around
the country and the world.
Her dream job would be to
work for the Centers For
Disease Control.
I love traveling for sure,
and would love to go back
to India they need so
much help, she said. My
program rotates between
four different labs one
professor is developing
vaccines for TB (tuberculosis) and anthrax, and a
lot of bioterrorism things,
so I have to wear a haz-mat
(hazardous materials) suit.
There are so many
opportunities; I cant wait
to get to them.

According to the criminal complaint, a 17-yearold female Stoughton High


School student who knew
Amato from the school told
Stoughton police that a few
months ago she and another
16-year-old female student
received requests from him
to be friends on Facebook. He also asked them
to be friends on Snapchat,
a photo messaging app that
limits how long recipients
can view photos or videos
sent (generally a matter of
seconds), after which they
are hidden from both the
recipient and the Snapchat
server.
She said on Aug. 2,
around 2 a.m. she received
a Facebook message from
Amato to the effect of
come and get what you
always wanted, as well as
Snapchat photos of his face

and a penis and a video of


an ejaculating penis.
The 16-year-old student
told police Amato sent her
Facebook messages on June
29, asking if she was still
awake and wanted to sneak
out and meet up with him,
according to the criminal
complaint. After denying
the requests, she told police
he sent her his Snapchat
name, and she added him as
a friend.
A short time after, she
said he sent her a series of
photographs, first one of his
face, then one of him fully
clothed, then one of him
apparently putting his hands
down his boxer shorts.
She said the last photo she
received of him was one of
his exposed penis.
According to the criminal
complaint, police contacted
Amato on Aug. 28 about the
incidents, and he admitted
sending Facebook messages
and Snapchat photos to one
of the students, as well as
photos of his penis on Snapchat but said that was only
to people at least 18 years
old.
When pressed on the age
of the student, Amato eventually admitted he knew
she was not yet 18 years
old, and admitted to sending multiple photos of his
penis, as well as a video of
him masturbating. He also
admitted sending photos of
his penis to the other student, who he told police he
knew was also not 18 years
old.
Stoughton Area School
District officials released a
statement Wednesday that
read, in part, The safety
of our students is the top
priority for the Stoughton
Area School District, and
our staff have been and will
continue to cooperate with
our local law enforcement
agencies to provide a secure
learning environment for
all.
According to the criminal complaint, each felony
charge carries a maximum
penalty of up to three years,
six months imprisonment
or a fine up to $10,000, or
both. Amato has an initial
appearance scheduled for
Oct. 13 in Dane County Circuit Court.

Letters to the editor

Citizens deserve say on KPW study


percent of GI. Our city scurries to
establish another TIF district so if
Guardian wants a corporate subsidy to build that 204,000 square
foot plant, the offer can be made.
Maybe Stoughton should just gift
Guardian the $1.36 million site to
seal the deal? We subsidize WalMart why not the Koch brothers
also?
Stoughtons Big Box ordinance
requires a fiscal and economic
impact study of the proposed
SuperCenter/retail development.
Citizens pushed city hall to implement the ordinance. The consultants study will soon be completed. What happens next?
If the study reports good
things, should the council approve
with:
A. NO corporate subsidy?
B. Reduced subsidy?
C. $5+ million subsidy?
If the study reports bad things,
should the council reject the project or still approve it?
Citizens have no say on the subsidy.
If Stoughton Schools borrow $2
million or more, state law requires
a yes or no referendum. But cities
can borrow as much as wished.
Last month Green Bays city
council disapproved a proposed
154,000 square foot Wal-Mart
SuperCenter - no corporate welfare
was requested.
In Stoughton, citizens need
input. We should demand our
council place a referendum on
the ballot and ask citizens if they
approve borrowing over $5 million
to provide corporate welfare to a
millionaire developer and the billionaire Waltons.

Stoughtons Robert Bob Schwartz


spent a good chunk of his young adulthood riding the waves of the Pacific Ocean
aboard the escort carrier USS Savo Island,
dodging kamikazes and providing a safe
place for pilots to land.
Saturday, hes going to take a much
more leisurely and well-deserved trip
to Washington D.C. aboard the latest Badger Honor Flight. People are invited to
share in the often-emotional send-off and
return ceremonies at the Dane County
Regional Airport.
The Badger Honor Flights are a regional
affiliate of the national Honor Flight Network that provides World War II veterans
the chance to see the World War II Memorial in Washington, D. C., as well as other
war memorials. The flights started in 2010,
and according to the groups website, more
than 500 veterans from Wisconsin have
been able to travel to the nations capital
through the program.
Schwartzs flight is scheduled to leave at
7 a.m., but not before a send-off ceremony
that is set to begin at 5:30 a.m. After a day
brimming with activities, the veterans are
to return to Madison at 9:15 p.m., though
the Badger Honor Flight website suggests
people who wish to welcome the veterans
arrive at the airport at 8 p.m.

who kept the Wal-Mart name, with
city approval, secret for 4 years.
Round one no subsidy was
requested. Round two before
knowing the impact of the SuperCenter on the economy and businesses in Stoughton and surrounding communities, the mayor signed
an agreement with the developer
in the middle of the night approving the intent to create a Tax Incremental Financing (TIF) District
and subsidizing the developer and
Wal-Mart to the tune of far more
than $5 million.
Now the city is rushing ahead
to create another TIF district in
Business Park North for the newly
proposed Guardian Interior Glass
companys 204,000 square foot
industrial plant. The 36 acre site
is beautiful, on a sloping hill on
the banks of the Yahara River and
overlooks a county park.
Former Mayor Helen Johnson
and the planning commission wanted that land for a premier office
park campus of headquarters and
research type companies bringing
high paying jobs. Instead, the present mayor is interested in turning
the farmland into an industrial site.
Industrial plants belong with other
large scale industrial operations in
Industrial Park South - NOT in a
premier extremely expensive location (taxpayers paid $1.36 million).
Average farmland sells for $3,700
per acre. Yet Stoughton wants to
put an industrial facility on land
citizens paid ten times that much $37,394/acre!
Guardian IG is owned by Guardian Industries (GI). Ultraconservative Koch brothers (who help
bankroll Gov. Walker) own 44.4

Sometimes the shortest and oldest words are the ones requiring
the most thought. We all know the
meaning of yes and no, but do
we understand the power we can
wield by using them, and do we
fathom the depth to which they
can penetrate our lives? Do you
instinctively say yes to life, or are
you a naysayer who denounces
everything? Yes is the eternal affirmation, the cosmic optimism. No
is the eternal negation and cosmic
pessimism. Lets face it: life is a
mixed bag. There is plenty of both
good and bad, and good and evil
in the world. But the power of yes
is stronger than the power of no.
Love will win out over hate. So, we
should be on the side of yes.
Christopher Simon
For the Son of God, Jesus
Christ, whom we proclaimed
among you, Silvanus and Timothy
and I, was not Yes and No, but in
him it is always Yes. For all the
promises of God find their Yes in
him. That is why it is through him
that we utter our Amen to God for
his glory.

What I mean by that is
you have to be able to hear
the words and tone of your
voice but still be able to hear
the music, she explained.
And people outside of your

And then the KJ has to

Her job is to enhance the
qualities that we already possess, Bock said.
Johnson is able to achieve
a great sound because of the
equipment she uses, which
includes a mixer (also known
as the sound board), a power
amp and high quality speakers. She also uses a CD
changer with a carousel that
holds 400 CDs and a decoder, which displays the song
lyrics so a singer can read
along as she performs.
Johnson said shes invested
more than $30,000 in equipment and has well more than
5,000 songs in her arsenal.
I get a lot of compliments
on my sound, because of the
mixer, Johnson said. There
are a bunch of controls on it
where I can tweak the vocal
and music the mix of the
mids, highs and the lows.
I have to do it all the time
because the CDGs the
discs that the music is on
are all different. So theyre
all mixed differently, and of
course, peoples vocals are
different. Some are louder
and some are softer.

Church announces leadership change


The Stoughton Branch
of The Church of Jesus
Christ of Latter-day Saints
announces a change in leadership. Mark Cifuentes has
been appointed the new
branch president, with Robert Glasser and Al Waller as
first and second counselors,
respectively.
The church leaders are
not paid and usually retain
their occupational pursuits
as they serve in the church.
The branch president serves
under the direction of a
regional leader, known as
the stake president. Stoughton is part of the Madison
Stake, which is headed by
Brooke Johnson of Middleton.
A branch president is
the ecclesiastical leader for
the congregation wherein
he provides spiritual guidance and oversees the social

and humanitarian needs of


his members as well as the
community at large. He
also helps members of the
congregation achieve selfreliance through the church
welfare program, which is
designed to help those experiencing financial difficulties
or who may require other
assistance for which they
cannot accomplish themselves.
Cifuentes was born into
the church and has been
married to his wife, Jennifer, for 32 years. They have
four daughters and four
grandchildren. He works for
the World Council of Credit
Unions and has previously
served in the Mission Presidency of the Nicaragua Mission as well as the Madison
Stake Presidency. He has
been involved in the recovery and reconstruction of

houses in Nicaragua after


Hurricane Mitchell, and he
has also volunteered for an
orphanage in Busia, Kenya.
Cifuentes enjoys American
football, scuba diving and
horses.
Glasser is originally
from Delaware and lived in
Eugene, Ore. before moving
to Oregon, Wis. He graduated from a Quaker high
school and joined the church
when he was 25 years old.
He moved to Wisconsin to
marry his wife, Annette, and
they have several children.
Glasser previously worked
in education and publishing
and is now retired and volunteers. He plays the organ
and has been active in the
theater.
Waller grew up in Madison and is a convert to the
church. He lives in Stoughton and is married to Lorie,

and they have five children


and two grandchildren. He
went to Manchester, England to serve a mission for
the church and has moved
around the country, including San Francisco and Atlanta. Waller makes games for a
living and owns a publishing
company called Out of the
Box. He enjoys bicycling
with his wife, running, playing tennis, golf, disc golf and
table-top games. He previously served in the youth
programs of the church as
well as branch mission leader and teaching the gospel to
many different age groups.
All of the members of the
branch presidency look forward to working within the
community and invite inquiries about the beliefs and

teachings of the church. For

TID: Common council will weigh in on project at Sept. 23 meeting


Continued from page 1
going down in the business
park right now, and on top
of that, we put in heavy
industrial, were kind of
doing a double whammy on
the businesses that are successful.
Miller said he didnt
think the heavy industrial
use would fit with the citys
comprehensive plan and
was concerned that the city
was altering their plans for
the business park because
one manufacturer had
shown interest.
Commission member
and alder Eric Hohol (D-4)
said the commission was
only acting on the TIF project plan that would guide
future expansion of the
park. He said the decision
of whether the city should
pursue the plan would come
at the council level.
The council may not
create the TIF district if the
particular company doesnt
finalize its plans to come
to the city, Hohol said.
At this point in time, its
just taking the project plan
which I think is a wellthought out plan and submitting it for consideration
to the council and the joint
taxing jurisdictions.
City of Stoughton planning and development
director Rodney Scheel said
the city hasnt seen building
plans from the company.

Business Park North had filled two years ago with the addition of Nelson Global, but a plan to create a new tax-increment financing district
could provide room to grow into the Moe property to the north (bottom of the photo).

The citys comprehensive plan calls for mixed


use along Williams Drive
across the street from the
business park and planned
industrial to the north of
the current park.
The comprehensive
plan does call for industrial expansion in this area,

Scheel said. We have not


seen building plans and elevations and site details to
justify what zoning district
(Guardian) may or may not
fall into at this point.

project plan at a meeting


in late August. The proposal had been relatively
unchanged Monday except
for cleaning up some language to match state standards, Sullivan said.
Project plan
Total money available
The commission had dis- to spend on the TID could
cussed details of the TIF be up to $7.6 million for
acquisition or preparation
of a total of 70 acres of land
according to city documents.

Same Trusted Advisors


New Office Location

The estimates include


about $1.3 million for additional land acquisition, $2.7
million for infrastructure
improvements and about
$3.2 million worth of interest expense over the life of
the TID. The plan includes
connecting a new road from
Williams Drive to Progress
Drive through the expanded
area.
Payback from the TID
would come from an

estimated potential $28 million worth of new development by the year 2030.
If Guardian IG were
to build in Stoughton,
the property value would
increase by about $12 million in the first year of the
TID, city staff indicated.
If it expands to a second
phase, for the estimated $28
million in added value, it
would generate about $8.4
million in tax increment by
the year 2033, which would
more than cover the $7.6
million in expenses.
TIF pools increased tax
revenue from all taxing
jurisdictions, including the
county and local schools,
into an account the city
controls. The starting point
for that increase is determined in whats called a
baseline year.
The city would have to
get the TID approved by the
state by Sept. 30 in order to
have 2014 be the baseline
year, finance director Sullivan said. If the company
starts building and the TID
isnt approved, the city
would miss out on extra tax
revenue because the value
of the land would be significantly improved once the
construction starts.
If the company decides
to build next year, the city
would be able to delay the
project plan and have 2015
be the base year.
The Common Council is
expected to weigh in on the
project plan at its Sept. 23
meeting.

We are pleased to announce the opening of our new office location. Continuing our
focus on providing an exceptional client experience through personalized financial
planning & portfolio management. Conveniently located near Fish Hatchery Rd. & PD.

Teach me how
to batik
The Adult Craft Club at Stoughton
Public Library learned a new art
technique called batik on Thursday,
Sept. 4. Batik involves creating
designs on fabric using wax, which
resists dyes and allows the artist to color selectively. The club
learns a new craft each month, with
future dates from 6:30-8 p.m. on
Thursdays Oct. 2, Nov. 6 and Dec.
4. No crafting experience is necessary, and teens are welcome with
an adult. For more information or to

Early-season success

Jeremy Jones
Sports editor

A year ago Anna Nelson entered


the Stoughton girls tennis season
with a broken foot that limited her
to mainly No. 3 doubles.
I couldnt have played singles
last year, even if the coaches had
wanted me to because I couldnt run
the whole court, she said.
Determined to make a jump
up the lineup this season, Nelson
played four days a week at Cherokee Country Club in Madison all
winter and two hours a day this
summer.
The transition has been really
great. I worked really hard and
Im glad to be where I am now,
said Nelson whose 6-1, 6-3 victory
secured a Badger South Conference
win in Oregon on Tuesday evening.
While the two teams met up
throughout Saturdays Stoughton
Invitational, Nelson didnt get a
chance to play Cassandre Krier,
instead she facing Oregons Kenzie
Torpy.
It didnt matter, however, as a
consistent Nelson clinched the decisive match in the 5-2 Badger South
Conference win over the host Panthers.
While the Vikings doubles teams

did really well against Oregon


over the weekend at the Stoughton
invite, the Panthers singles lineup
remained a wildcard entering Tuesday evenings dual.
Oregon won the No. 3 and 4
single flights and took Stoughtons
1 singles player Sarah Benoy to a
super tiebreaker.
Benoy found herself up 5-0 in the
first set and 3-0 in the second Tuesday afternoon only to watch Leah
Koopman claw back into both sets.
Having defeated Koopman three
days prior in a super tiebreaker at
the Stoughton invite, Benoy once
again held on to close out the match,
6-4, 7-5.
Stoughtons doubles teams
opened the dual sweeping all three
doubles flights with little effort.
Junior Holly Brickson and sophomore Sydney Johnson swept their
No. 2 doubles match 6-0, 6-0, while
junior Carrie Aide and sophomore
Marissa Robson added a 6-2, 6-1
win at No. 3 doubles.
Sophomores Payton Kahl and
Kendra Halverson completed the
sweep with a 6-3, 6-2 win atop the
doubles lineup.
Tuesday evenings win improved
the Vikings to 8-2 overall and 2-1 in
conference with big wins over Milton and the Panthers.

Benoy defeated Koopman 6-4,


7-5 (10-5) in the super tiebreaker
for third place at No. 1 singles.
Nelson added another third-place
finish at 2 singles, defeating Torpy
6-3, 6-1, while Hedman finished
third at No. 3 singles, defeating
Madison La Follette sophomore
Abbi Mullen 6-1, 7-5.

Vikings
go
heavy
against
Monroe
Jeremy Jones
Sports editor

Listed at 6 feet, 215 pounds


senior Alex Zacharias is undoubtedly the Stoughton football teams
biggest running back. So its no
wonder the Vikings name for the
offense package with Zacharias in
the backfield is heavy.
Its all the big guys, Zacharias joked Friday following his two
touchdown performance in a 24-7
win over Monroe at home.
Zacharias scored on a 5-yard
rush to give the Vikings an early
7-0 lead in the first quarter. He also
added a 24-yard run in the third
quarter before leaving the game
with a twisted ankle.
Our lineman created some really big holes tonight and gave me an
opportunity to run through them,
Zacharias said. Im a true defensive guy, but I like scoring touchdowns.
Head coach Jason Thiry commended the play of the Vikings
line and team leader.
Alex is a leader for us everybody knows it, Thiry said. Its
not like hes a secret player for us.

Staffen leads Vikings at Verona


Jeremy Jones
Sports editor

Stoughton girls cross country standout Nikki Staffen


has had some of her most
memorable runs on the Randy
Marks Cross Country course
in Verona.
Staffen, who hadnt won a
cross country race until capturing the Verona sectional
titles the past two seasons, had
another solid run Saturday.
Running the girls first 5k
race of the season, Staffen finished fifth overall Saturday at
the Verona Invitational in 19
minutes, 55 seconds.
I knew I had to set my
pace a little bitter because of

the longer distance (no longer


running a 4k). It was a little
harder, but I really liked it.
Fellow senior Megan Reese
placed 27th with her time
of 21:09, while sophomore
teammate Aly Weum took
28th in 21:12.
Underclassmen Augustyna
Brestar (21:42) and Paige Halverson (23:04) rounded out
the Vikings pack in 41st and
86th place.
Middletons top three runners all finished behind Madison West athletes, but the Cardinals placed their final two
varsity runners ahead of the
Regents to take top team honors, 67-68. Fellow Big Eight
Conference rival Madison

Memorial (89) took third


place.
The Vikings finished sixth
overall out of 22 teams with
187 points.
WIAA Division 2 state
runner-up Amy Davis paced
the field with a time of 18:24
while the Crusaders finished
55 points ahead of Stoughton
in fifth place.
I think we have a chance
at winning conference this
year, Staffen said. We
have such a strong team.
We have that nice pack
with Aly, Megan and
Augustyna who work so
well together, Staffen said.
We all push each other to
work so hard.

Utica Home Talent entered


Sundays round-robin championship game simply looking to stop host Ashton from
finishing off a three-game
sweep.
Shorthanded two of their
top players due to NCAA
rules, the As were unable to
extend their season another
two weeks, losing 5-2.
Nearly two-and-a-half
decades after the As secured
their only HTL title in 1991,
Utica was without arguably
its top two hitters in third
baseman Ben Hildebrandt
and shortstop/relief pitcher
Dane Schultz who both had
to sit out the game as their
UW-Oshkosh baseball team
had begun fall workouts.
That really hurt, Utica
manager Dale Vike said.
Theyre two of our better
hitters and Dane is our second pitcher.
The As, who could have
forced a three-way tie with
DeForest and Ashton with
a win Sunday, were held to
six hits and five walks in the
loss.
Though the As walked in
each of the first four innings,
Utica didnt get a hit off
starter Kevin Peternell until
the fourth inning.
Trailing 5-0, the As managed to rally in the top of
the eighth inning with Brian
Wilberg drawing a leadoff walk and Andy Martin
reaching base on an error.

Shortstop Chris Lund commits a sixth-inning error Sunday in


Uticas 5-2 loss at Ashton.

Brad Ashmore followed with


a single to load the bases
with no outs, but the As
only managed two runs in
the inning.
It would have been nice
if we could have kept it
going, Utica manager Dale
Vike said. We kind of threw
away a couple runs for them,
but thats the way it goes.
Hats off to them. They
played a good game and beat
us.
Doug Vike singled home
a run off reliever Garrett
Novinski in the eighth. But
with the bases still loaded,
Ashton and reliever Novinski worked out of the jam,
only surrendering one more

run as Bates hit into a 5-3


double play.
Double plays are always
a pitchers best friend and
I think that kind of took the
wind out of Utica a little bit,
Ashton manger Dave Adler
said.
A scoreless game through
four-and-a-half innings,
Shane Adler pulled a onedouble up the left-field line
in the home half of the fifth.
He then scored on a Novinska single. Moving into scoring position on a Utica error,
Novinska came around to
score one batter later thanks
to a Kasey Miller basehit.

Anderson wins twice against McFarland


Junior Eva Anderson secured both
sprint freestyle events and senior Allie
Niemeyer added a win in the long event
Tuesday evening as Stoughton girls
swimming fell 111-59 to McFarland.
Anderson took the 50-yard freestyle
title in 26 seconds and later added the
100 free in 57.37.
Niemeyer added Stoughtons only other win, taking the 500 free in 5:42.13.
We knew going into the meet that we
had our work cut out for us, head coach
Elise McLaury said. Then we ended up
having six girls not swim due to either

illness or injury.
The Vikings goal was to strive for personal bests and to score more points than
last year, and they accomplished that.
McFarland is an extremely strong
team with a lot of depth and they just
came off of winning our relays last
week, McLaury said. Varsity had a
hard practice yesterday, and Katie and
I were both surprised how well they all
swam.
The Vikings finished with 11 personal
bests on the evening.

Sophomores pace Vikings at Verona invite


Jeremy Jones
Sports editor

Sophomores Owen Roe


and Tristan Jenny helped
the Stoughton boys cross
country team to an 11thplace finish out of the 21
teams competing at Saturdays Verona Invitational.
Roe covered the 5k Randy Marks Cross Country
course in 17 minutes, 52
seconds good for a teambest 48th-place finish.
Owen ran a very solid
race, Stoughton head
coach Patrick Schneider
said. He is already way
ahead of where he was last
year on the same course.
As a whole, we have a
great group of guys who
can run as a pack for much
of the race.
Jenny (18:19) finished a
little under 30 seconds later in 61st place as Stoughtons final four varsity
scorers finished with 16
seconds of each other.
Only four seconds separated senior Ryan Sperle
(18:23) and junior Gabe
Ross (18:27), who finished
62nd and 65th, respectively.
Gabe has been my

happiest surprise of the


season, Schneider said.
He has set lifetime bests
the past two races and
looks very comfortable
when running.
Sophomore Garrett
Model, meanwhile, finished just eight seconds
back in 18:35, taking 74th
place.
Senior Giles France and
freshman Sean McLaury
also competed but did not
score.
Both seniors Olin Hacker (15:21) of Madison
West and Ryan Nameth
(15:33) of Verona broke
the course record.
Madison La Follette,
however, held off the
Regents despite Hackers
performance placing its
final three runners ahead of
West for the 46-51 victory.
Middleton rounded out the
top three with a 134.
I was very pleased that
the boys beat our conference rivals that were at the
meet, Schneider said.
In particular, the Vikings
were beaten by Oregon
two weeks ago at the West
Bend Jamie Block Invitational, but turned around at
Verona and narrowly beat

the Panthers.
From a race strategy
perspective we need to get
out a little faster at Verona., Schneider said. In
our first meet, most of the
varsity boys went out too
fast. We really need to find
a happy medium.
I saw some improvement from the first race to
the second, but it was not
uniform. I was glad to see
a more cautious start, but it
was a bit too cautious.
Schneider said he
believes the Vikings second place Division 2 trophy was Stoughtons first
trophy at Stoughton High
School since 2000.
It was nice to see the
varsity guys stick together
for much of the race, but
if we want to compete for
a state berth we need to
get our pack to move up,
Schneider said. I think
after a couple fast flat
courses in the next few
weeks, our guys should
have the confidence to run
with the top teams in our
sectional and conference.
The Vikings continue the
season at 5 p.m. Thursday
at Lake Farm Park outside
of Oregon.

You deserve a break!

Football: Vikings secure first win of season


Continued from page 11
Stoughtons offensive line
saw Zach Hasselberger rack
up a team-best 119 yards on
11 carries, while Zach Kirby
also made several big runs as
the Vikings had 234 yards on
42 attempts.
Kirby and Hasselberger
sometimes do the dirty work
and Alex comes in and finishes it off on the goal line,
but we have do what we had
to do in order to win.
Its a team game and the
best part is that both Zachs
understand that.
Following a Monroe
touchdown, Stoughton used
the passing game to score
the game-winning touchdown as junior quarterback
Jake Kissling connected with
tight end Buck Krueger on
a 25-yard jump ball over
defensive back Cole Murray.

Kicker John McCune connected on a 28-yard field goal


to give Stoughton a 17-7 lead
heading into halftime.
I think we can play with
anyone and we proved that
tonight, said Zacharias, who
capped off the win with a
24-yard score on Stoughtons
second possession of the second quarter.
Thiry saw plenty of things
the Vikings will need to clean
up in the win.
We had some procedure
penalties and got stopped on
the Monroe 5 yard line, he
said. We still havent put a
game together where weve
played all four quarters.
Our kids played really well when they had to
and came away with a win
against a team that was 2-0.
Stoughtons defense forced
three turnovers in the second
half against Cheesemaker

sophomore quarterback Tyler


Elmer.
We did a good job keeping their playmakers in front
of us and hoping he would
lay a few balls our there,
Thiry said. Our defensive
line got some pressure and
our guys went and made
some plays.
The Vikings (1-2 overall,
1-0 Badger South) travel to
Fort Atkinson (0-3, 0-0) at 7
p.m. Friday. The Blackhawks
are coming off a 46-14 loss
against undefeated Mount
Horeb/Barneveld.
Fort Atkinson, which is
only averaging nine points
per game this season, has
scored three touchdowns in
as many games.
Stoughton on the otherhand, has averaged 17 ppg
and scored seven times on the
season.

Designated hitter Derek

Bates to load the bases.
Kevin Drunasky and Peternell, who combined to go

Bates allowed three earned
runs in eight innings on 15

Chris Lund was the only

The win gave manager

I think the turning point for
us this year as the second-tolast-game of the year in Cross

and battled back to only lose
9-6. Something seemed to
click in that game.

Diana Lynne (Swenson)


Printiss, born Aug. 23,
1958, passed away at home
in Gulf Breeze, Fla. on Aug.
9, 2014, at the age of 55.
She had battled cancer for
over 13 years. Diana fought
courageously and defied the
odds that her doctors gave
her time and time again.
Regardless of what she was
going through, her focus
and concern was always on
those around her and never
herself. For such a small
package, she was a true
Warrior and rarely let on
the depths of the suffering
that her cancer and treatments brought her. She finished her fight with grace
and composure at her home,
just as she had hoped to.
Diana is preceded in
death by her father, Dean
Swenson; her maternal
grandparents, Gerhard
and Ruth Kittleson; and
her paternal grandparents,
Ernest and Mary Belle
Swenson.
Diana is survived by her
loving husband of 32 years.

the provisions of any other municipal
ordinance, except that where another
municipal ordinance is more restrictive
than this ordinance, that ordinance shall
continue in full force and effect to the
extent of the greater restrictions, but not
otherwise.
(b) This ordinance is not intended
to repeal, abrogate or impair any existing deed restrictions, covenants or
easements. However, where this ordinance imposes greater restrictions,
the provisions of this ordinance shall
prevail.
Sec. 32-6. Interpretation.

ordinance shall be held to be minimum
requirements and shall be liberally construed in favor of the municipality and
shall not be deemed a limitation or repeal of any other powers granted by the

state, or any citizen thereof pursuant to
Wis. Stats., 87.30(2).

Mega
mandevilla
Mary LaCroix, of Stoughton,
bought a one-foot tall mandevilla plant at Kopkes Greenhouse
in May. She was surprised at
how tall the plants have grown
this summer. Even some greenhouse employees came to her
house to see it for themselves.
As of August, her mandevillas are more than 10-feet tall.
LaCroix claimed that mandevillas grow well into November
and she thinks the plants may
get even taller.
Left, LaCroixs two main mandevillas are so tall that they are
starting to grow up on to the
roof of her Stoughton home.
Right, LaCroixs smallest mandevilla plant is taller than her
garage doors and still growing
strong.
