SUN PRAIRIE — Nowhere to hide.
Middleton’s girls swimming and diving team is the defending WIAA Division 1 state champion, and with a talented roster once again, the Cardinals are every bit as capable of a repeat.
And everyone knows it.
So entering last Saturday’s sectional meet at Sun Prairie West High School, all eyes were on the Cardinals.
“We’re conscious of the fact that we’re probably a target for other teams, but if that’s pushing (them) to work hard, it’s pushing us to work just as hard, because we know what we can do,” junior Sulia Miller said. “We don’t want to lose. We want to keep pushing for the things that we know we’re capable of. There definitely is pressure, but it pushes us to work so much harder and to swim just that much faster.”
It showed at sectionals.
