WTS Paradigm Employee Shoots Coworkers, Killed by Police

By Kevin Murphy & Michelle Phillips
Times-Tribune
MIDDLETON–On the morning of Sept.19,
Anthony Tong walked into WTS Paradigm, his
place of employment, and shot four of his co-
workers. Police arrived at the scene, entered the
building and fired at Tong as he wielded a 9 mm
handgun. Tong was shot by officers and later died
at a Madison hospital.
Tong acted alone and there are no indications
that anyone else was involved in the incident,
Middleton Police Chief Chuck Foulke said.
Authorities executed a search warrant on
Tong’s residence at 9738 Gilded Cider Blvd.
the same day as the shooting, and turned up a
pellet gun, gun parts, gun building tools and a
stockpile of hundreds of rounds of ammunition.
In addition, Tong, 43, was in possession of tacti-
cal equipment, including three ballistics vest and
helmet. The warrant was made public on Friday,
Cameron Bren-Times Tribune and also states that one of Tong’s coworkers was
shot 10 times.
Tong, who lived alone, was 43 years old, and
had worked at the software company since April
2017. In a statement issued by WTS Paradigm on
Sept. 21, the company said he was not being fired
or reprimanded at the time of the shooting and
was an employee in good standing.
Although Tong had no previous contact with
local law enforcement, he did have an incident
in his past that caused his concealed carry permit
to be revoked in 2004. An affidavit released from
Sioux Falls, SD, highlights a call police received
after a fire alarm had been disabled in Tong’s
apartment.
The document outlines the incident in Sioux
Falls that took place on Aug. 11, 2004. It states
the following:
• Sioux Falls officers arrived at a call to an apart-
ment building after the officer manager called po-
lice to tell them he had been notified by Midwest
Alarm Company that a horn that sounds during a

fire was disabled from a fire alarm located in one
of the apartments.
• Officers went to Tong’s apartment to question
him about the fire alarm. At the time he seemed to
be evading their questions and refused them entry
to the apartment.
• After contacting supervisors, police were told
to enter the apartment due to public safety con-
cerns. It was at this time officers noticed that ceil-
ing fans, ceiling lights, smoke alarms and other
electronic items attached to walls and the ceiling
had been disabled.
• Tong told police he disabled the items because
people in the apartment beneath him were eaves-
dropping on him. They noted that he was defen-
sive and evasive, taking a long time to answer
simple questions.
• Police felt Tong was acting strangely when
asked several times if he had anyone in the apart-
ment with him. An officer then asked to check
the other rooms and Tong backed toward a closed
bedroom door.
• Officers, fearing for their safety, handcuffed
Tong at which time they discovered he had a
40 caliber Model 239 Sig Sauer handgun with a
double magazine pouch on his belt. It was fully
loaded and had a bullet in the chamber. He also
had pepper spray, a pocket knife and a folding
spider cone knife on his person.
• Officers entered the bedroom and found an
AR-15 semi-automatic rifle and a large amount
of ammunition. When questioned about the
weapons Tong would only say that they were for
protection.
• Tong was asked if he had considered shooting
another person, and he did not answer, but, rather,
sat with his head between his knees. At this time
officers believed Tong to be a public danger. He
then told officers there were people at work talk-
ing bad about him but did not elaborate.

MADISON–WTS Paradigm
CEO Nate Herbst spoke pub-
licly for the first time since an
employee opened fire on his co-
workers on Sept. 19, at a press
conference at the State Capitol
on the morning of Sept. 25.
“It will take time for our WTS
family to fully recover and heal,
but we are thankful to have the
support of each other and the
community as a whole,” Herbst
said. “We will find the strength
to recover and move forward.”
Herbst acknowledged the
three victims who were injured
in the shooting.
“Our thoughts are with our
three employees injured last
week,” Herbst said. “They
continue the recovery process.
The good news is two are re-
covering at home and the third,
while recovering in the hos-
pital, is doing well and this is
great news.”
He said the company is com-
mitted to keeping employees
healthy and whole. “We are
supporting our employees and
providing important support
services to them. Our employ-
ees are doing as well as could
be expected in this situation.”
Herbst said WTS Paradigm
will have grief counselors
available on site and are allow-
ing employees to return to work
at their own schedule and pace.
He noted that support from
the community has been tre-
mendous.
“I cannot tell you how many
people have reached out to
myself and our employees to
express support,” Herbst said.
“Please know it means the
world to us. It’s an incredible
sense of comfort during this
tough time.”
Herbst also gave credit to
first responders who he says
saved the lives of his employ-
ees. “We can’t thank law en-
forcement enough for their
quick and brave response,”
Herbst said. “This group of first
responders ran into danger and
saved many lives last week.
He then asked that privacy be
afforded to employees as they
continue to, “bounce back.”
When asked if he was pres-
ent during the shooting Herbst
said he was there at the time,
but the day was about healing
and not his personal story.
Herbst had little to say about
employee Anthony Tong who
opened fire on his coworkers.

and took 14 firearms last Octo-
ber, was sentenced last week in
federal court to two and a half
years in prison and three years’
supervised release.
Khalil Lites, 19, of Madi-
son, pleaded guilty in June to
conspiring to burglarize PT
Firearms and possessing stolen
firearms.
According to court docu-
ments:
Lites was student at the Uni-
versity of Wisconsin-Baraboo
when police searched his
dormitory room in Novem-
ber while investigating an al-
leged sex assault of a child 16
or older. Police found a 9 mm
pistol in bed sheets which was
later traced to the PT burglary.
Lites had been charged in
Dane County Circuit Court in
August 2017, with domestic
battery and released on con-
ditions which prohibited him
from possessing firearms.
A plea and sentencing hear-
ing are set this week in the case.
After searching Lites’s dorm
room, Lites’s aunt tipped law
enforcement that her nephew
had fled Baraboo, said Lites’s
attorney, Joseph Bugni.
Assistant U.S. Attorney
Robert Anderson said authori-
ties were told that Lites was
in Chicago to commit robber-
Khalil Lites
ies. Bugni told District Judge
William Conley had Lites was
going to Urbana, IL to visit his
uncle.
Lites was carrying a firearm
in a backpack when he was ar-
rested in Chicago and returned
to Madison.
“I’m not sure how to weigh
this but it resembles a bad issue
for your client,” Conley told
Bugni.
A weapons charge is pending
against Lites in Cook County,
IL.
On Friday, Lites faced 37-46
months in prison under advi-
sory federal sentencing guide-
lines on the gun burglary and
possession charges.
Anderson recommended a
sentence at the low end of the
guideline range but said Lites’s
“very brazen theft …was very
serious and only three of the 14
stolen firearms had been recov-
ered.
“The fact that the guns are
still out there is a real concern,”
tence citing his clients’ lack of
prior convictions and his youth.
Lites apologized to District
Judge William Conley “for
what I did. I want to move on…
and be a better person.”
Conley said he hoped this
was Lites’s “wake up” call
as “you were heading toward
more serious conduct includ-
ing killing yourself or someone
else.”
Conley added, “The gun
shop owner has no insurance.
I hope you apologize to him as
he continues to suffer.”
Since Lites and the govern-
ment have not agreed upon a
restitution amount owed to PT
Firearms, Conley set a Dec. 7
hearing to determine it.
Only Lites and Keith Harris
have been convicted in connec-
tion with the gun store crime,
although gun store surveillance
video shows three men were
involved in the “crash-and-
grab burglary.” Harris, 25, of
Madison, was sentenced in July
to two years in federal prison
for possessing a firearm stolen
from PT.
Anderson said the crime re-
mains under investigation.
Efforts to contact PT Fire-
arms Monday were unsuccess-
ful.

Fundraiser to Benefit Haitian School Professor John

MIDDLETON–On Sept.
28, the Fond Blanc Foundation
will host their fourth annual
fundraising event, “Rally at the
Runway,” benefiting the school
in Fond Blanc, Haiti. Previously,
the Fond Blanc Foundation has
hosted a very successful family-
friendly fundraising event at
Keva, known as “Play It For-
ward,” which has been crucial in
funding the Fond Blanc School.
The school educates over
400 children annually in the
remote Haitian village of Fond
Blanc. Due to donations, they
were able to purchase uniforms,
schoolbooks, and pay certified
teachers’ salaries each year. This
has made education a possibility
for many kids, who would oth-
erwise not have access to similar
schooling.
In Haiti, education is not a
certainty, but a privilege. With
only 10 percent of schools in the
country run publicly, simply put:
if you don’t have money, you
don’t go to school. The Fond
Blanc Foundation and their an-
nual fundraising efforts look
to change this for the fortunate
students of the mountain-village
school.
Students at the Fond Blanc School in Haiti. A benefit for the school will be held on Sept. 28
at Morey Field in Middlton.
This year the Fond Blanc Foun-
dation has the same goal: to
provide brighter futures for as
many kids as possible but has
put a new twist on their past fun-
draising success with their new
event, “Rally at the Runway.”
This event will run from 7-11
p.m. at Capital Flight Hangar at
Morey Field in Middleton, and
will feature food, open bar, si-
lent auction and great music in
a unique airport hangar setting.

Hawks to Lecture
in Middleton
MIDDLETON–The Middleton Public Library and the UW-
Madison Speakers Bureau are pleased to present a lecture by
internationally renowned professor John Hawks on Oct. 11, at
7 p.m.
A professor of anthropology at UW-Madison, Hawks was part
of the team who described the Homo naledi fossil, a previously
unknown species of hominin, discovered in the Rising Star caves
in South Africa in 2013. In this lecture, part of the 2018 Wiscon-
sin Science Festival, Hawks will discuss the discovery of Homo
naledi and what it means for the story of human evolution.
Hawks is the Vilas-Borghesi professor of anthropology at UW-
Madison and an expert on the subjects of paleoanthropology and
human evolution. In 2014, he launched a Massive Open Online
Course (MOOC) entitled “Human Evolution: Past and Future,”
one of the first such free online courses offered by the univer-
sity. He teaches a range of courses from the introductory level to
graduate level in biological anthropology, human evolution and
genetics, and the evolution of human behavior.
Along with Lee Berger, he co-authored the 2017 book “Almost
Human: The Astonishing Tale of Homo naledi and the Discov-
ery That Changed Our Human Story” for National Geographic
Books. He blogs about human evolution and related topics at
johnhawks.net.
The lecture will take place at the Middleton Performing Arts
Center, and registration is appreciated for this event: Online via

District Approves Tax Levy News Briefs
Resolutions at Annual Meeting Community Input Needed
for Downtown Plaza
By Cameron Bren
Times-Tribune
MIDDLETON–The Middle-
ton Cross Plains Area School
District (MCPASD) Board of
Education approved unani-
mously, three resolutions to
levy taxes for the 2018-19
school year at its annual meet-
ing on September 17.
The resolutions approved in-
clude:
• A tax levy to add to capital
fund. The fund, which is used
for maintenance, will increase
$25,000 to $1,000,000 this fis-
cal year.
• Adoption of tax levy of
$67,045,866 for the 2018-
19 fiscal year, an increase of
$122,000 from a year ago.
• Adoption of school board sal-
aries. President Bob Green will
receive $4,200 and the other
eight Board members will re-
ceive $3,600.
Green presented the tax levy
information in place of trea-
surer Linda Yu who resigned
last month for personal reasons.
Green said since 1993 Wis-
consin schools have operated

limits. Revenue limits iden-
County Looks for New Ways
to Manage Lake Levels
DANE COUNTY–Respond-
ing to flooding in the Yahara
Lakes watershed, the Dane
County Board is met as a Com-
mittee of the Whole to hear
from County lakes experts and
find answers to questions about
the Yahara watershed.
Additionally, a resolution that
was be introduced at the board
called for convening a group of
experts to evaluate the situation
and make policy recommenda-
tions by March 31, 2019. Those
recommendations could include
petitioning the state Department
of Natural Resources to allow
lower lake levels in the near-
term and consider longer-term
changes.
“Given the disastrous flood-
ing we’ve experienced this
summer, it’s obviously time to
take a look at lake levels,” said
County Board Chair Sharon
Corrigan. “This resolution will
set things in motion so we can
make policy recommendations
in the spring after receiving
input from a variety of sources.”
Prior to their regular meeting,
the board received an update on
the flooding and lake level man-
agement from the Dane County
Land & Water Resources De-
partment. Officials have initially
estimated damage in excess of
$78 million for residents and
over $37 million to businesses,
with only two percent of those
damages insured.
The county is responsible
for maintaining water levels for
the four major lakes in Dane
County: Lake Mendota, Lake
Monona, Lake Waubesa and
Lake Kegonsa, mainly through
operation of the Tenney Park
Dam. But any permanent
changes in lakes levels must
be approved by the DNR. The
current target range of keeping
Lake Mendota water levels at
849.6 feet above sea level was
tify the maximum amount of
revenue a district can generate
between property taxes, gen-
eral state aid and computer aid.
Green said that makes up more
than 90% of the district’s rev-
enue.
MCPASD’s total revenue
limit for 2018-19 is $76.7 mil-
lion, with nearly $60 million
coming from property tax.
The remainder comes from
equalization aid and computer
aid from the state. Green said
property taxes make up 66 per-
cent of the district’s operating
revenue, while 82 percent of
expenses are tied to salary and
benefits.
Green noted that the 2017-19
state budget does not include an
increase to the revenue limit.
He said the state has increased
categorical aid the last three
years instead of raising revenue
limits. Categorical aid is a one-
time payment each year from
the state.
Green said the most influen-
tial factor in the district’s rev-
enue limit calculation is district
enrollment.
“We are fortunate that our
student numbers are increas-
ing and therefore we are seeing
set in 1979.
Supervisor Yogesh Chawla
(District 6, near east Madison)
said he has seen the effects of
the flooding first-hand along the
Yahara River and Lake Monona.
“This resolution will help
Dane County bring our lakes
down to their state allowed
minimums in the short term,” he
said. “It also provides a frame-
work and timelines for a robust
process to determine what the
proper lake levels should be
given a rapidly changing cli-
mate.”
The resolution calls for the
Land & Water Resources De-
partment to prepare background
material for the Lakes & Water-
shed Commission and the Envi-
ronment Agriculture & Natural
Resources Committee by im-
mediately convening a technical
work group that includes repre-
sentation from the University of
Wisconsin and other experts.
The group would evaluate
conditions, model various sce-
narios that include predicted
climate changes, identify short-
and long-term recommenda-
tions to improve resiliency
for future flooding events and

an increase in available funds
within the revenue limit,”
Green said. “For preliminary
budget purposes the board
estimated an increase of 171
students, based on current en-
rollment numbers we will meet
and exceed that number.”
Enrollment growth for 2018-
19 means an additional $2.5
million in the revenue limit for
the district.
Green said the mill rate under
the levy will be about $9.98 per
$1,000 of equalized property
value, a decrease by 34 cents
for every $1,000 of residential
property value from last year.
“I don’t believe we have
been under for 10, 15, 20
years,” Green said. “It’s been a
long time.”
Official numbers will be
available after the final bud-
get is adopted before Oct. 31.
Business services director Lori
Ames said the numbers will
vary by municipality.
Green said compared to
other Dane County school dis-
tricts MCPASD receives the
least amount of aid per member
from an equalization per stu-
dent basis.
“Individuals would naturally
make other recommendations
that may include petitioning the
DNR to change the permitted
target range for lake levels.
Supervisor Chuck Erickson
(District 13, near west Madison)
serves on the Lakes & Water-
shed Commission and said he is
looking for a long-term assess-
ment of the situation.
“While lowering the lake
levels is a good place to start,
we need to closely review the
impacts on the flow required
to move water downstream
and the impacts on the environ-
ment,” he said.
The board also viewed a pre-
sentation of “Minding the Gap:
The Housing Crisis in Dane
County.” Produced in conjunc-
tion with the Dane County
Housing Initiative (DCHI), the
video documents the challenges
facing those who struggle to
meet monthly rents despite
working full-time or receiving
retirement benefits including
Social Security.
According to a recent re-
port, over 22,000 low-income
households in the county pay
more than 30% percent of their
income in rent. Another 12,000
think that because we receive
such a small amount of equal-
ization aid that the districts mill
rate would be one of the high-
est in Dane County,” Green
said. “This is not the case be-
cause our equalized value both
residential and commercial our
mill rate is one of the lowest.”
Green said districts with
higher property value receive
less equalized aid through the
state’s funding formula. He
said MCPASD is considered to
be a district with high property
values.
Green clarified that only a por-
tion of the fund balance is cash
reserves, which is a common
misconception. He said it is im-
portant to keep a high enough
fund balance to keep cash on
hand for expenses to avoid bor-
rowing which results in paying
interest.
A preliminary budget was ap-
proved in July, which included
a 2.7 percent raise for staff with
no increases in health or dental
insurance. Green noted that the
district was fortunate to have
no increase in health insurance
costs for the year.
very low-income households
pay more than 50% of their
income in rent, with 2,200 of
those seniors.
To help close that gap, the
board will consider providing
$500,000 to developer Gor-
man & Company to assist with
the “Grand Family” affordable
workforce housing project at
Union Corners. Located at 2507
Winnebago St. on Madison’s
east side, those units are aimed
at families or seniors caring for
younger children.
In addition, the board on con-
sidered transferring $15,000 in
unused funds from the Planning
& Development Department
budget to the County Clerk’s
Office to facilitate the comple-
tion and execution of the voter
ID education plan.
The goal of the campaign is
to inform voters of the ID law,
direct voters to the statewide
helpline and/or microsite where
they can get assistance or a ride
to obtain an ID and promote a
culture of voting.

MICHELLE’S
Musings
BY MICHELLE PHILLIPS
Der Schuh
As I was bringing the last
box of stuff to a U-haul trailer
Wednesday afternoon, I missed
the step on the front porch and
badly sprained my foot. It was
so bad that I thought it was bro-
ken. It felt very similar to break-
ing the metacarpals in my left
hand years ago. So, instead of
hauling a trailer of our belong-
ings to Madison, Matt and I
went to UnityPoint Urgent Care.
keep my foot straight, but they
did not have one at Urgent Care.
Um, your name is literally Ur-
gent Care and you are open after
hours to accommodate medical
needs, yet you don’t have this
shoe? Seems odd.
He gave me a prescription,
or order, for the shoe, and told
me the medical supply place
that might have it was closed
because it was after 5 p.m. Matt
and I decided to go ahead with
the plan to drive to Madison and
most of Thursday afternoon
searching for the post-op shoe.
We went to the UnityPoint at
Home, a home health care store
because that seemed a logical
place to start. I mean, it was
only three minutes from our
new home, a UnityPoint facility
and home healthcare supplies.
No dice. Not only did they
not have it, but it would take
7-10 days to order one. What
person with a foot injury can
wait a week and a half for a
medical brace?
We decided to go home and
call SSM, certainly they would
have it. No. St. Mary’s Care
Center? No. Home Health
United? No. Apria Health Care.
Matt then calls a little local
place down the street, whose
name I can’t remember. They
have it, but I will need a doc-
parently, urgency is really not a
priority here.
After calling a couple of more
places, one of the people suggest
UW-Madison Foot & Ankle
Clinic. Oh, yeah, now we’re
getting somewhere, I thought.
I call them, with my renewed
optimism.
I go through the story of my
injury, my out of state insur-
ance, my trip to UnityPoint, etc.
After putting me on hold several
times, she comes back and says
she doesn’t know if they can bill
my insurance or not. “I don’t
care,” I say. “We have money
and can pay cash.” On hold
again.
She comes back and says, I
can’t pay cash, and that I need
to be in their system to bill in-
surance. I can’t pay cash, this
completely baffles me. She says
Opinion
plain my story she says, yes they
can bill it, and she will transfer
me back. Shoot and score! But
wait, she can’t transfer me back
to the original woman for some
reason and sends me back to the
general line. Not so fast on that
score after all.
I get a new person whom
I must tell the story to, this is
like 13 times I have told the
story. In the story I say I have
a doctor’s order. To which she
replies, “Well, we can’t sell it to
you without a doctor’s order.”
Really? I had no idea! So, I say,
“Yes, I have a doctor’s order.”
More hold. She comes back and
says, “Oh, I am sorry we can’t
sell it to you since you aren’t one
of our patients.” I reply that the
other woman was ready to sell
it to me but had sent me to bill-
ing, blah, blah, blah. She then
says she is going to transfer to
orthopedic care. Before I could
scream, “WAAAAIIIITTT!!”
she had transferred me.
The very pleasant woman at
orthopedic care did not even
know what it was. Sometime
between all these calls, my
husband had found the post-op
shoe on Amazon for $11. I said
to the woman, “Oh, screw it, I
am going to order it from Ama-
zon for $11.” She replied, “Well,
that’s a good deal.”
So, $11 and two days later I
got “the shoe” or “Der Schuh,”
as Matt and I affectionately
named it. So, if you see me out
in the community with a weird
square-toed, foam, sandal look-
ing thing, know that Der Schuh
is highly coveted and much
harder to find than Waldo.

The Hit Men Coming to Performing Arts Center

MIDDLETON–Frankie Valli
& The Four Seasons, Carly
Simon, Elton John, Blood,
Sweat & Tears, Carole King,
Cheap Trick, Sting, and Paul
McCartney, were among the
most influential pop music art-
ists of the second half of the
20th century, and all share a
common denominator: at some
point during their careers, each
had at least one of the Hit Men
playing behind them on the
road or in the studio.
The Hit Men–a group
consisting of Lee Shapiro,
Jimmy Ryan, Jeff Ganz, Russ
Velazquez and Steve Mur-
phy–either played, sang or
performed on stage with one or
more of these artists, creating
or recreating live, some of the
most memorable hits of the era,
including “Who Loves You,”
“Oh What a Night,” “You’re
So Vain,” “The Loco-motion,”
“Anticipation,” “Mony Mony,”
“Joy to the World,” “Don’t Stop
Believing,” and many more.
The Hit Men connect with
audiences on a level rarely seen
by today’s musical artists. From
the classic songs we all know
and love, such as “Oh What a
Night” & “You’re So Vain,” to
the backstage stories never told
until today, a Hit Men show is
like no other, as they combine
the music and the memories
alongside exciting multimedia
footage and visuals, evoking
an unforgettable musical and
visual experience.
“We can say whatever we
want about our legacy with
complete legitimacy,” Lee
Shapiro said. “We have an
emotional connection with the
audience that tribute bands and
soundalike bands can’t have.
When we share our experi-
ences and tell stories, we aren’t
reciting a script. We were there.
When we tell you how Warren
Beatty got thrown out of Carly
Simon’s dressing room at the
Troubadour in LA in 1971, we
know it’s true because Jimmy
Ryan was the one who did it!”
On Sept. 29 they will appear
at Middleton’s Performing Arts
Center. Tickets are $35/adults,
$30/seniors and $10/students,
and are available at Monona

Shooting Continued from page 1

• Police took Tong to the Men-
tal Health Unit at McKennan on
a 24-hour mental hold.
At the time, Tong had a valid
concealed carry permit issued
in South Dakota. After a hear-
ing concerning the incident
with police, the judge revoked
his concealed carry permit on
Nov. 1, 2004.
Two male Middleton police
officers, Richard O’Conner,
and Tyler Loether, and two
male sheriff’s deputies, David
Lambrecht and Matthew Earll,
were involved the shooting.
Loether is currently the re-
source officer at Middleton
High School, and part of the po-
lice training team. He has been
with the department since 2012.
Deputies from the Dane
County Sheriff’s office were
identified as David Lambrecht
and Matthew Earll.
Lambrecht is has been with
the sheriff’s office for 21 years
and is currently on the depart-
ment’s traffic team.
Earll works in child support
enforcement and has been with
the sheriff’s department for 11
Neither of the two Middle-
ton officers nor the sheriff’s
deputies had previously been
involved in a shooting, accord-
ing to Foulke and Dane County
Sheriff Dave Mahoney.
Foulke praised the prompt
response of the law enforce-
ment to the shooting.
Hundreds of employees fled
the building during and after
the shootings, leaving behind,
car keys, medications and other
valuable property.
During the shootings, em-
ployees either hid under desks,
was going on, and Mecum took
shelter with her coworkers
away from the windows.
The first thing Mecum
thought to do was notify her
family that she was okay. “I’m
a single mom of four kids, I
wanted to make sure my kids
knew I was okay,” Mecum said.
Mecum says when police
came to evacuate her and her
coworkers that’s when saw
blood splattered on the back
stairwell of her building.
Mayor Gurdip Brar called
Wednesday “a sad day in Mid-
that Tong had been cleared. He said he was not aware of the former
mental health incident of Tong.
WTS has made no decision at this point to pursue prevention or
mitigation like active shooter training, Herbst said.
“Today is about these employees and healing, we have not de-
termined what next steps were taking across the board,” he con-
cluded.

American Legion Donates to Relief Fund
By Michelle Phillips
Times-Tribune
CROSS PLAINS–Right after
the flood occurred in Cross
Plains on Aug 20-21, Dave
Vidlock was driving around the
village and noticed all the metal
items put on the curb for pick
up. This gave him an idea, what
if the American Legion, which
collects metals for scrapping
year-round, collected this metal
and gave the money to flood
victims?
“When we first started we
didn’t know the magnitude
of the damage,” Vidlock said.
“Someone suggested we call
Corey (Gilbertson, of All-Met-
als Recycling) to bring a dump-
ster. They brought it the next
morning and by 10 a.m. we had
it filled.”
Gilbertson said that All Met-
als Recycling was glad to pro-
vide dumpsters for the drive,
“We were very excited to be
involved in any way,” he said.
Cross Plains Village Board Holds
Special Session to Discuss Flooding
By Brenda Schultz
Times-Tribune
CROSS PLAINS–The Cross
Plains Village Board held a spe-
cial meeting on Sept. 19 to hear
flood updates.
Caitlin Stene, Village Ad-
ministrator, wished to make the
Board members aware of the
upcoming National Flood Insur-
ance Program (NFIP) inspection
requirement, as well as an up-
date on damage assessment and
the 2018 property re-evaluation
process.
All Trustees, except Bud
Busch, were present as Stene
outlined the procedure man-
dated by the NFIP. She, and
Jerry Gray, Public Works, will
receive inspection training and
both will inspect the 45 struc-
tures that are in the floodplain.
The inspection will evaluate
the dollar amount needed to
get these structures back to pre-
flood condition. They will put
then put inspection notes into
FEMA software, and FEMA
will determine what percentage
of the home’s value is needed to
achieve pre-flood condition. If
one of these 30 residences and
15 businesses is found to need
50 percent or more of the value
of the home to renovate it to pre-
flood status, then that structure
will have to be moved out of the
flood plain. This could poten-
tially be achieved, stated Stene,
by elevating the structure, rather
than moving it to a new site.
Trustee Lee Sorenson stated
that the boundaries for the
floodplain have moved over the
years.
Gray expounded upon this
percentage. “The clock started
on August 20th. Let’s say House
A’s value is $200,000, and flood
renovations are estimated to
cost $64,000. Twenty years
from now, if remodeling is de-
sired, they only have $100,000
minus the already spent $64,000
that they can spend before that
structure must be moved. Things
like new roofing, or a new hot
water heater, or new furnace...
anything not related to flood
rehabilitation, is included.” This
is true even if one of the 45
CROSS PLAINS NEWS
In all, the Cross Plains Amer-
ican Legion Post 245 collected
46,634 lbs. of metal, bringing
in nearly $3,000 for the Cross
Plains Disaster Relief Fund fa-
cilitated by State Bank of Cross
Plains. The group picked up
metal for about two and a half
weeks after the flood.
State Bank of Cross Plains
President Jim Tubbs said they
were grateful to get the dona-
tion, which brought the total
amount donated to the Cross
Plains Disaster Relief Fund
over $50,000.
“We tried to get it into the
public how people could help
through our website and social
media,” Tubbs said.
He explained that the bank
started the fund the day after
the flood. When bank employ-
ees took to the streets deliver-

cannot total more than 49 per-
cent of the value of the home, or
the home will have to be moved
out of the floodplain.
Trustee Jeanne Statz asked,
“What if someone sells it three
years from now?”
Stene replied that the cumula-
tive renovations post August 20
applies to all subsequent own-
ers.
President Pat Andreoni com-
mented, “I know of one town in
Illinois that had to move their
entire downtown because of this
mandate through the National
Flood Insurance Program.”
Trustee Kevin Thusius rec-
ommended that the letters going
out to the owners of these 45
structures notifying them of
the upcoming inspections, and
should be noted on the Village
website. Stene stated that it
would be noted on the website,
and added, “The whole purpose
of floodplain insurance is to
have no structures in the flood-
plain.”
FEMA is in Wisconsin as of
Sept. 24, doing flood assess-
ment. A Public Assessment of
the village-owned properties
was compiled with estimates of
costs to make these properties
whole again. Gray stated that
in two previous submissions to
FEMA for financial assistance
none was granted.
On Gray’s mandatory list of
items that need repair for 2018
were only those items that could
impact life or property, post-
poning less serious repairs for
2019 due to lack of manpower
and financial resources. Some
items on his 2018 list of repairs
include the asphalt on Brewery
Road, a great many storm sewer
repairs, and silt in the sanitary
sewer from the flooding. Ex-
penses already incurred for
the village due to the flooding
are $35,000 for trash disposal,
$18,000 for emergency road
repairs, and between $7,500-
10,000 for paint disposal.
Gray estimated that between
500-1,000 gallons of paint had
been disposed of. Some of this
The bank will continue to
take donations for the relief
fund for the next few weeks.
Applications for assistance are
now being accepted and the
first round of disbursements
will start in October. The dead-
line for applying is Sept. 30,
and applications can be found
at info.sbcp.bank/flood-appli-
cation.
The American Legion nor-
mally makes annual donations
to Badger Camp, a summer
camp for those with special
needs, and Camp American Le-
gion, a respite camp for veter-
ans with PTSD, with the money
they make scraping metal.
Vidlock said the group is still
picking up metal from the flood,
but at a much slower pace.
“This isn’t over. There are
still people who are going to
need support and prayers. There
are people that need to rebuild.
I just don’t want us to forget
about it,” he concluded.
was dumped from locations not
affected by flooding at all. This,
plus other instances of pub-
lic abuse of trash pick-up, like
stuffing televisions between
mattresses and box springs, or
filling refrigerators with elec-
tronics, cost the village at least
one-third the total cost of trash
and paint disposal. “That’s why
I set the cut-off date for trash
pick-up when I did,” stated
Gray. “About the third day of
the trash pick-up, the abuse
started.”
He estimates that approxi-
mately $40,000 will allow for
a “Band-Aid” on Brewery Rd.
between Valley and Thinnes
that would last approximately
15 years; shorter, though, with
Sundance construction trucks
using that road. That estimate
includes as much in-house labor
as possible, he said. The village
board passed a motion to sup-
port staff’s proposed plan for
prioritizing 2018 repairs needed
and funding for those repairs. A
formal budget amendment will
take place later in 2018.
Property assessment letters
were received in mailboxes Sep-
tember 13 and 14 and the “Open
Book” will take place from 2-6
p.m. Sept. 24. An Open Book
refers to a period of time (before
the Board of Review begins)
when the completed assessment
roll is open for examination.
This period of time is an op-
portunity to discuss your prop-
erty value with the assessor and
provide reason for changing
the value, if appropriate. These
property assessments were done
in January 2018, prior to the
flooding. The assessed value
is used when a property tax is
levied by the government. The
appraised value is an attempt to
determine the property’s market
value.

asked if parking was allowed on
both sides of the road by the
church between St. Francis’s
driveway and Springfield, and
the answer was, yes. Board ac-
tion is needed to change parking
status along roads.
During public comment, for-
mer Trustee Bill Brosius brought
three concerns before the board.
The first was a reminder that the
last administrator voted out the
“Community of the Whole” but
that it was still listed on the vil-
lage website.
The second was a word of
caution regarding the board’s
need for strict adherence to
Robert’s Rules of Order when
discussions take place following
a report given by a committee or
group, and a word of caution as
well about a trustee’s role when
helping out in the community.
“You must separate your role
as a trustee, and as a citizen,”
stated Mr. Brosius.
A 2019 budget update was
given by Stene and it was rec-
ommended to postpone one of
the five goals due to no staff
time available to implement this
goal as a result of the extra work
load placed upon staff from the
flooding. The postponed goal
involved ensuring that the vil-
lage’s workforce is adequately
compensated to foster reten-
tion and promotion. The village
board will pick up work on this
goal in early 2019. The budget
workshop has also been can-
celed for the same reason.
A special village board meet-
ing will take place Oct. 8 at 6
p.m., and Oct. 11 is a board re-
view.

Boys volleball team tops
Milwaukee Marquette
BY ROB REISCHEL
Times-Tribune
MILWAUKEE — Eight
seniors had graduated from the
winningest boys’ volleyball
team in Middleton history.
Sure, the newcomers were
talented. But Cardinals senior
outside hitter Eagan Peters-
Michaud figured a dropoff this
fall was only natural.
“When the eight seniors left,
we were kind of wondering
how this would go,” Peters-
Michaud said. “I kind of had
more negative thoughts.”
Not anymore.
Middleton has been one of
the state’s greatest surprises.
And the Cardinals notched one
of their biggest wins of the Ben
White-era on Sept. 18.
Middleton went into Mil-
waukee Marquette High School
— home of the defending state
champions and a school that
has won nine state titles since
2002 — and took it to the host
Hilltoppers. Middleton over-
came a rough second set and
toppled Marquette, 25-21, 16-
25, 25-20, 25-21.

The softest part of Middle-
ton’s schedule is over.
Now, the Cardinals face a
Murderer’s Row to finish the
season. And how Middleton
fares in the final three games
will go a long ways in deter-
mining whether its year is a
smashing success or a disap-
pointment.
The Cardinals rolled past
host Janesville Parker last
Friday, 46-0. Middleton im-
proved to 4-2 overall and in
the Big Eight Conference and
sits in a tie for fourth place.

Middleton also posted wins
at the JV and freshman levels
in what was a memorable night
for the program.
“It will be a pretty happy bus
on the way home,” White said.
With good reason.
Junior outside hitter Parker
Van Buren had 15 kills, while
Peters-Michaud had a sensa-
tional all-around performance
with 11 kills, 10 digs, three
blocks and two aces. Senior
middle hitter Owen Engling
had nine kills, while senior set-
ter Matt Ballweg had 39 assists
and two blocks. Senior libero
Dylan Griffith had 16 digs and
junior defensive specialist Mat-
thew Stormer added two aces.
“It’s so great,” Van Buren
said. “This means a lot to us.
They’re a great team and we’re
so happy to have played them
and to have beat them.”
Peters-Michaud agreed.
“I think this gives us a lot of
confidence,” he said. “I think
this opens up the state’s eyes
about what we have and what
we can do this year.”

Lauren Cabalka, who has

Wisconsin Swimming and

as the recipient of the 2017-

Middleton’s girls swimming
and diving team rolled past
Janesville Parker, 137-33, last
Friday.
The Cardinals took the top
three spots in all three relays.
Middleton also grabbed the
top three spots in six of the
eight individual events.
“I thought this was a pretty
solid meet for us,” Middleton
coach Lauren Cabalka said.
“The girls swam some choice
events and we mixed up relays
quite a bit in order to give the
girls a rest from what they’ve
been doing to this point and so
they can “refresh” those events
for the second half of the sea-
son.”
Middleton’s 200-yard med-
ley relay team of Hannah
Aegerter, Cora Mack, Bella
Chirafisi and Abby Utter was
first, while the Cardinals’ quar-
tet of Kaitlyn Peters, Anna
Thomley, Sarah Foley and
Norah Martin was second.

represents the states of Illi-
nois, Indiana, Iowa, Michi-

Cabalka, now in her 11th
season at Middleton, has
led the Cardinals to eight
straight Big Eight Confer-
ence championships. Mid-
dleton, currently the top
ranked team in the state, is in
position for a ninth straight
conference title, as well.
Middleton is undefeated
in conference duals since
2013 and has won seven sec-
tional championships under
Cabalka. In addition to the
Cardinals’ two state cham-
pionships under Cabalka,
Middleton was second at
state in 2015.
Cabalka, a former stand-
out at MHS, was also the

of the Year in both 2016 and

Middleton topples Mount Horeb

BY ADAM HATLAN
For the Times-Tribune

The Middleton and Mount

Horeb boys soccer teams have
each fared similarly in the 2018
season.
Both teams have less than
stellar records, but the squads
have played better than their re-
cords indicate and have played
better soccer of late.
The two teams squared off
last Saturday afternoon at Bri-
etenbach Stadium in Middle-
ton, and the Middleton held off
Mount Horeb, 2-1, to capture a
non-conference victory.
The Cardinals improved to
4-6-2 for the season, and sits
in seventh place at 1-2-1 in the
Big Eight. Mount Horeb fell to
2-9-0 and has a 2-1-0 record
in the Badger North, good for
third.
“Today was a good step
forward for us,” said Middle-
ton head coach Ben Kollasch.
“We keep developing and tak-
ing steps forward each game.
We’ve been trying to put to-
gether a full 90 minutes, and
today was about there.”
The Vikings, who won the
Division 3 state title in 2017,
graduated their top four scorers
from a year ago and have had a
brutal schedule this fall. Mount
Horeb has already faced five
Big Eight opponents and 10
of its 18 scheduled opponents
have been ranked at some point
this season.
The nine losses by the Vi-
kings have come by a combined
14 goals and are all against Di-
vision 1 and Division 2 teams.
Those teams also have a com-
bined 59-20-14 record.
Mount Horeb’s loss to Mid-
dleton marked the fifth one-
goal loss of the season for the
Vikings — and their third con-
secutive one-goal setback.
“Middleton worked us pretty
hard today,” said Mount Horeb
head coach Mark Newman. “I Times-Tribune photo by Mary Langenfeld

Middleton’s girls golf team
notched the second goal on its
list Monday, winning the Big
Eight Conference tournament
held at Evansville Golf Club.
The Cardinals shot a 343 to
easily outdistance runner-up
Verona (383). Madison West
(387), Janesville Parker (389)
and Sun Prairie (390) rounded
out the top five.
“I’m so proud of these girls
for never giving up this sea-

Halverson said. “We have a
young team, but they have
shown us that they want it just
as much our more experienced
teams.”
Middleton’s Glenna Sander-
son captured medalist honors,
firing an 83. Kate Meier and
Danielle Callahan tied for sec-
ond with 84s, while Ellie Frisch
was ninth with a 92.
“For Glenna to win today
was so great,” Halverson
said. “I’m so proud of her. She
played with such confidence.
“Kate struggled, but never
gave up. Danielle had an out-
standing day. This is exactly
the way I would want a senior
to play at the conference tour-
nament. Previously her best
was an 82 on a par 70. For her
to shoot an 84 on a par 72 in a
big tournament was outstanding
for her confidence going into
the postseason.”

MENOMONEE FALLS —
Nothing gets a team ready for
the postseason like playing elite
competition.
Middleton’s girls’ volleyball
coach Franco Marcos fully un-
derstands that. And even though
the Cardinals took a few lumps
at last weekend’s Lynn LaPorte
Sprawl Qualifying Tourna-
ment held at the Milwaukee
Sting Volleyball Center in
Menomonee Falls, the trip was
extremely beneficial.
Middleton went 3-4 on the
weekend and faced plenty of
high level opponents that will
undoubtedly help the Cardinals
when the playoffs arrive next
month.
“These types of tournaments
help prepare us for the rest of
the season,” Middleton coach
Franco Marcos said. “We saw
some great performances by
our players.”
Wisconsin Lutheran defeated
Middleton, 25-23, 25-18, in the
first round of pool play Friday.
Lily Welti had six kills and
five digs, while Torrey Coan
and Hannah Flottmeyer both
had five kills. Keller Frinzi had
four kills, Lauren Hendricks
had six assists, Rachael Roberts
had three aces and 11 assists
and Olivia Farin had 10 digs.
Tournament champion Ce-
darburg then defeated the Car-
dinals, 25-19, 25-16.
Lauren Hendricks and Coan
had three kills, while Roberts
had seven assists. Flottmeyer
had two blocks, Farin had nine
digs and an ace, while Welti and
Jada Cerniglia both had an ace.
Middleton then finished
pool play with a 25-16, 25-21
win over Kaukauna. Welti and
Coan both had five kills, while
Frinzi had four kills and eight
digs. Hendricks had three aces
and five assists and Roberts had
eight assists and two aces.
“We were in a strong pool
and only the top two teams ad-
vanced in the Gold Bracket,”
Marcos said. “However, the
seeding was earned based on
previous match results. The
best we could do was to com-
pete to play in the remaining
flights.”

six digs, while Frinzi had eight
kills. Reagan Thomas had four

erts added 14 assists and Hen-
dricks had four kills and six
assists.
“Overall it was a good per-
formance by the team,” Mar-
cos said. “We won some close
matches and we lost some close
matches.”
Middleton also notched a
hard fought, 18-25, 25-21, 25-
27, 25-21, 15-4 win over Madi-
son Memorial last Thursday.
“They were an improved
Madison Memorial team and
they played us tough,” Marcos
said.
Welti lead the Cardinals
with 19 kills and 13 digs, while
Farin had two aces and 18
digs. Cerniglia had 16 digs and
Flottmeyer had six kills and six
blocks. Torrey Coan had six

Middleton co-head coach Jason Pertzborn and the Cardinals have three extremely tough games to finish the regular season.

FOOTBALL continued from page 12

straight games, defeating
Beloit Memorial (1-5) and
Parker (0-6). But things are
about to get much tougher,
as the Cardinals host Janes-
ville Craig Friday at 7 p.m.,
host Sun Prairie on Oct. 5 and
travel to Madison La Follette
(3-3) on Oct. 12.
Those three teams are a
combined 15-5 (.750).
“The last couple of years,
the schedule has been the op-
posite where we’ve had some
of our tougher games earlier
well against Parker, jumping
to a 21-0 lead after the first
quarter and a 40-0 edge by
halftime. That meant there
was a running clock the entire
second half.
Pertzborn and Middleton’s
coaching staff wanted the
Cardinals to make quick work
of the Vikings. Middleton did
just that, refusing to give
Parker any hope of springing
a huge upset.
“That was the plan all
week,” Pertzborn said. “We
ued his brilliant season with
108 rushing yards on just 10
carries in the first half (10.8).
Buckner also scored three
touchdowns.
Senior Kevin Meicher re-
turned a punt 65 yards for
a touchdown and junior
Keewon Bufford had an
8-yard touchdown as Mid-
dleton’s lead grew to 40-0 at
halftime.
Middleton’s defense was
also terrific, allowing just
70 total yards and seven first
Kussmaul is the Cougars’
top weapon, rushing for 706
yards and nine touchdowns in
the first six games.
Defensively, the Cougars
are led by defensive lineman
Keeanu Benton, a University
of Wisconsin recruit.
“We have to play really
good football to win,” Pertz-
born said.
If Middleton wins, it will
clinch a playoff spot for the
23rd consecutive season. The
Cardinals entered the year
ting in the playoffs.
“Right now, we just have to
keep getting better and make
sure we get in the playoffs.
Then, you never know what
will happen.”

opened Marquette’s eyes, de-
feating the Hilltoppers for the
second time in September.
The Cardinals’ hitting per-
centage of .202 wasn’t jaw-
dropping. But Middleton
played terrific defense and
finished with 42 digs, 45 kills,
eight blocks and five aces.
“I really feel like we did a
better job serving against them
as we were able to attack cer-
tain zones to try to keep them
out of system,” White said.  Boy, did Middleton punch
Marquette went on an early
6-0 run in the first set and took
an 8-5 lead. But the Cardinals
forged an 8-8 tie, and there
were five ties and three lead
changes the rest of the way.
Middleton was clinging to a
22-21 lead when it regained a
sideout following a Van Buren
kill. With Van Buren then serv-
ing, Engling had a tip kill for
a point to make it 24-21, then
Peters-Michaud hammered
home a kill on set point.
“Getting that first set was
big,” Peters-Michaud said.
The second set was a much
different story as the host Hill-
toppers raced out to leads of
3-0 and 14-7 and rolled to a
25-16 win.
Between sets, White — who
grew up watching Brett Favre
lead the Green Bay Packers
— used a story from the ‘Gun-
slinger’ to help motivate his
team.
“Coach told us a Brett Favre
story where he said he never
actually felt like was playing
well until he got sacked,” Van
Buren said. “And that’s what
pushed it over for me, at least.
That really made me really
want to beat them.”
Peters-Michaud felt the
same way.
“Coach told us that Brett
Favre once said, ‘I’m not in
the game until I get sacked
and punched in the face,’ ”
said Peters Michaud, who has
a 37-inch vertical leap. “And
you guys just got punched in
the face.”
back.
The third set featured six
early ties and Middleton was
clinging to a 17-16 lead fol-
lowing consecutive kills from
Marquette senior outside hitter
Joe Destefanis. But a Peters-
Michaud kill gave Middleton
a sideout, then Peters-Michaud
rolled off three straight service
points — including two aces —
as the Cardinals’ lead jumped
to 21-16.
Marquette never crept closer
than four points the rest of the
way and Middleton grabbed a
2-1 lead.
“I was so excited to see
how they responded, because
I didn’t know how they’d re-
spond,” White said. “And to
see how they responded, it was
just like, ‘Let’s go. Let’s fight.’
I’ve had teams in past years
that might have thought they
didn’t belong on this court. But
these guys never thought that.
It was great to see.”
Middleton never backed
down either.
The fourth set turned at the
midway point when Middleton
rolled off four straight points
to take a 17-14 lead. Sam Dett-
man had a huge block kill to
give the Cardinals a sideout,
then sophomore Nick Stott
rolled off three consecutive ser-
vice points as Middleton took
control.
Marquette closed within one
point on three occasions, but
never could pull even. The Car-
dinals then finished the match
on a 5-2 run that included kills
from Dettman and Peters-Mi-
chaud and a tip kill from Ball-
weg.
Just like that, mighty Mar-
quette had been slayed and
Middleton let the rest of the
state know this could be its
year.
“I’ve been blessed with a
good program and good ath-
letes,” White said. “But the
past couple of years we’ve re-
ally won with defense, and to
use the generic term, we’ve
kind of nickel and dimed peo-
ple. And this year is different
because we show up and we’re
the team with the power. So
that’s the big difference.”
It sure is.
Van Buren has emerged as
a dominant force to team with
Peters-Michaud on the outside.
Dettman and Engling form a
pair of dangerous middles.
Ballweg is as steady of a set-
ter as you’ll find. And there’s
depth, talent and skill up and
down the roster.
Add it all up and Middleton
is a legitimate state title con-
tender.

that and I don’t think the kids
are going to hide from it,”
