Middleton rallies past La Follette

MADISON — Ben Lashuk knew he was in the middle of something special.

So as Middleton’s junior quarterback was helping lead the Cardiac Cards on a memorable comeback on Oct. 2, Lashuk pushed the pause button for a brief moment.

“That fourth quarter was probably one of the most fun quarters of football I've ever played,” Lashuk said. “I mean, I was hyped. I had so much adrenaline. I just wanted to stop for a minute and soak it all in.”

With good reason.

Middleton trailed host Madison La Follette, 35-21, heading to the fourth quarter. The Cardinals responded with 22 unanswered fourth quarter points and stunned the Lancers, 43-35.

Middleton improved to 4-3 overall, 4-1 in the Big Eight Conference and took a big step towards securing a playoff berth for the 30th consecutive season. The Lancers fell to 3-4, 2-3.

MHS golfers headed back to state

Things haven’t been easy for Middleton’s girls golf team this fall.

The Cardinals have battled inexperience after losing three stalwarts from their 2025 team. Junior McKenna Utter was sidelined all season with a broken middle finger.

And the Cardinals’ scores were certainly higher than past years.

On Monday, though, Middleton did what it’s done every year since 2012. The Cardinals shined when the pressure was turned to high.

Middleton captured second place at the WIAA Division 1 DeForest Sectional held at Lake Windsor Country Club and clinched a berth at the state tournament for a 15th straight year. The top two teams at the eight-team sectional advanced to state, which will be held Oct. 12-13 at University Ridge Golf Course.

DeForest won the sectional with a 329 team score, while the Cardinals finished second with a 340. Oregon (350), Tomah (351) and Waunakee (351) rounded out the top five.
