After Darth Vader and his storm troopers entered the library, people gathered around to take photos and get a closer look.
Vader visits Verona
The Empire did not strike anything during its visit to the Verona Public Library Saturday, Oct. 14, but Darth Vader and his storm troopers — along with a host of other “Star Wars” characters — did pose for plenty of photos. The library’s “Star Wars Reads Day” featured a set of characters from the 501st Legion — Wisconsin Garrison, and also offered kids a chance to make “Princess Leia hair,” design a droid or create “Yoda ears.”

New VAHS class a ‘hook’ for history ‘Sports and History’ class popular in inaugural semester Unified Newspaper Group
When President Donald Trump began berating NFL players kneeling during the national anthem on Sept. 24, Sara Asendorf and Jeff Behringer knew they’d have to adjust their curriculum for the following Monday. Luckily for them, though, it was not too big of a deviation from what they already had planned for the three sections of the Sports and History class at Verona Area High School. “We were already going to have a great discussion on race and sports … because we were learning about Jackie Robinson,” Asendorf said. “It was perfect.” Paying attention to current events goes well with
the class, which has three sections being taught in its inaugural semester. Because of that, the teachers often offer time at the beginning to discuss what’s happening now – whether that’s the result of the Packers game the day before or some controversial comments from an NFL quarterback. Asendorf, Behringer and Justin Scanlon, who also teaches the class, have developed the curriculum on their own, with a bit of experience on their side. Asendorf took a similar class in high school in Minnesota, though she stressed that they’ve done things differently in designing the Photo by Scott Girard VAHS version.

Marks completes first Ironman World Championship in Hawaii ED FINK Verona Press correspondent
Verona native Russell “Rusty” Marks finished Saturday’s Ironman World Championship in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii, ahead of more than 1,000 of the best triathletes in the world. A n d h e h a d n ’t eve n planned on being there until a few months ago. The 40-year-old Verona native, who works as a triathlon and running coach in New York, finished the grueling 140.6 mile circuit of swimming, bicycling and running in 11 hours, 36 minutes, 5 seconds – 1,346th out of 2,364 competitors.
He told the Press on Sunday by telephone his appearance in the annual event stemmed from helping to prepare four athletes for t h e i r f i r s t Marks Ironman, in July in Lake Placid, N.Y. He decided to participate while he was at it and and qualified for the World Championship in the process. “I wanted to experience it with them without stealing their thunder,” he said. “I actually didn’t tell them

The Rev. John Sasse, attired in a black cassock, rushed into his office, weaving his way through unopened shipping boxes and finally reaching his desk. The pastor for the Catholic parishes of Saint Andrew and Saint William since mid-July, Sasse has been so tied up with daily Mass, funerals, weddings and serving two churches that he hasn’t had a chance to unpack. An Indiana native, the 49-year-old Sasse traded positions with previous priest, the Rev. William Vernon, who has moved to St. Clement Parish in Lancaster, a 5,000-population community near the Mississippi River. So far, Sasse said, it’s been a good move. “Everything is going pretty well,” Sasse said. “People are very nice here, and the staff are very
helpful and getting me adapted.” Ryan Hartberg, Pastoral Council member of Saint Christopher Parish, said i t ’s f o r t u nate to have another great priest, who always “makes himself busy.” Sasse Since Oct. 9, in addition to regular Sunday Mass, Sasse has offered extra Mass at 7 a.m. from Monday through Friday at Saint William, which makes it more “convenient” for people to worship. “He’s very committed to educating and sharing the importance of sacraments,” Hartberg said. With about 800 families and two more days of Mass in Verona, Sasse has been putting in 12-hour days Tuesday to Sunday. He is also always on call for emergencies, such as the sacrament of anointing of the sick, and conducts other sacraments like baptisms and weddings.

Letters to the editor
United Vaccines procedures ‘sad, cruel’ I’m writing in response to an article in the Verona Press on May 25, 2017 titled “United Vaccines Opens Facility.” It has taken me this long because I couldn’t bring myself to read it again or think about more animal abuse. I’m not a member of any animal organization. Just a person who has always loved animals and understands that they do feel fear, pain and suffering. United Vaccines, which opened in Verona in September, is testing vaccines on mice and other rodents. This operation is not intended to advance medical science or cure diseases. Instead, it is designed to “supply the fur farming community worldwide.” Since relocating to Verona, the
company has flown under the radar in terms of publicity about what they are doing. I’m sure that suits them just fine. What we do know is that The Dutch Fur Breeders Association will use the vaccines on minks, who, at another location, will be raised to be killed and made into coats. So they are abusing one group of animals so they can kill another. For these people, profits are all that matter. Disgusting. What a terrible addition to beautiful Hometown Verona, or any other town for that matter. How sad, how mean, how cruel. Lois Moore Village of Belleville

Back pain can often be prevented, managed
T
his past winter, on a trip with family, we walked many miles a day sightseeing. One morning near the end of the week, I woke up and had low back pain – my low back hurt at rest, when standing, but especially with walking. If you’ve been fortunate enough to never experience low back pain yourself, chances are you know someone who has struggled with it. Low back pain is Ozbeki the third-most common reason patients seek medical care. It can be caused by trauma, a sudden movement that may cause muscle strain or ligament sprain, arthritis, osteoporosis or many other reasons. Approximately one-fourth of adults reported having low back pain lasting at least one day in the past three months. Back pain can be acute (less than one month), subacute (1-3 months) or chronic (more than three months), but no matter how long you have it, it can be frustrating to deal with and can lead to missed days of work and decreased productivity. Many people wonder what they can do when they are hit with a bout of back pain. Thankfully, most people do not require medicine or surgical procedures. A group of physicians (American College of Physicians) looked at the evidence for treatment of low back pain and published a series of guidelines earlier this year for how to best treat back pain. They looked at improvement in pain, function, quality of life, patient satisfaction and adverse effects as part
of their evaluation for how to best treat it. One of the conclusions was that most patients with acute or subacute low back pain will improve with time regardless of treatment. Therefore, treatment that does not use medicine should be part of the first line. These treatments include using heat (such as in a heating pad), massage, acupuncture and spinal manipulation (such as with osteopathic physicians or chiropractors). You should try to stay active as much as you can and avoid bed rest, because not using the back muscles can actually make pain worse. If back pain unfortunately progresses to being chronic, recommended treatments include exercise, acupuncture, yoga and many other options that do not include medicines. If those treatments don’t work, consideration can be made to using anti-inflammatory medications such as ibuprofen. Of course, there are always situations in which back pain should be evaluated by your doctor to determine what management option is best for you. If back pain has been present for less than one month and does not radiate down the leg, it is usually okay to save yourself a trip to the doctor. If the back pain is lasting over a month, radiates down the leg or causes numbness or tingling, you should let your doctor know. As always, if you’re unsure whether you should be evaluated, you should call your clinic and ask. Sometimes it helps to get images, such as X-rays or MRIs, but it depends on your symptoms and how long they have lasted and a lot of the time, an X-ray or MRI may show abnormalities that are not truly the cause of an acute episode of back pain or show no abnormalities at all.
Back pain is no fun, and we should all do what we can to prevent it. Being in good general health and keeping good posture are both crucial. A strong core (abdominal and back muscles) can help support your spine. Regular exercise that includes core-strengthening (such as yoga or pilates) could potentially protect you from injuring your back. Maintaining a healthy weight can also potentially prevent bouts of low back pain since there is less stress on the joints. Our mothers always told us to stand straight with good posture, and it’s true, that is good advice to protect our backs. Poor posture places pressure on the spine. Be cognizant of your posture both when sitting and standing and try to use an ergonomic chair if you have a desk job. Desks that transition from sit to stand can also be helpful for some people, although for some they can exacerbate back pain, so it is definitely not a “onesize-fits-all” approach. Prevention isn’t foolproof, so next time you or someone you know is hit with a bout of low back pain, keep these tips in mind. For my own bout of back pain, it did slow down the rest of the vacation, but thankfully, it improved after a couple weeks. Hopefully, if it happens to you, a heating pad, a massage, and some time will help you improve, as well. Just don’t forget, your doctor is always available to answer questions if you’re unsure what to do first. Dr. Tina Ozbeki is a second-year resident at UW-Health Verona with an interest in preventative medicine.

The play follows three charity representatives — ending world hunger, curing cancer and saving rainforests — as they vie for funding from Theobald Rhinelander during a weekend stay at his “creepy mansion.” “Comedy abounds as Rhinelander tests their commitment to the causes they espouse and a ghost in the mansion’s attic adds to the angst of the do-gooders,” the release said.

The two groups will have a 30-minute “meet and greet” before the show, Rich said, where he expects them to be able to take in those lessons.
“I can tell them until they’re blue in the face that you can be a musician after high school … but hearing from someone who is more close to their age and their experience is probably going to be more meaningful for them,” he said. The middle school students will play some pieces themselves before the UW students join them for collaborations.

A Deep Yearning “If you would be loved, love,and be loveable.” —Benjamin Franklin We all desire to love and to be loved, and we all know the pain of loneliness and lost love. The desire to understand others and to be understood is at bottom an attempt to feel connected.We are simply not whole by ourselves and require the connection with others that comes most completely through love to regain our sense of wholeness. This is perhaps the most pressing problem of the modern world— loneliness, alienation and disconnectedness.Much of what is said about the value of the individual and his or her right to live as he or she sees fit contributes to people “doing their own thing” at the expense of building relationships with others that might give them this connectedness and satisfy this deep yearning. Of course, there are many ways to relate to others.We can do it through friends and family.We can do it through our jobs and our hobbies. And we can even do it through modern technology, e.g.,social media. But ultimately, it all comes down to being kind and loving to the people we interact with. So nurture the yearning to love and be loved, first and foremost by making yourself worthy of love. – Christopher Simon

Sugar River Euchre League
Verona’s team off to 2-0 start Verona’s two teams in the Sugar River Euchre League are off to a 2-0 start to the 2017-18 season. The Mounties from It’s Time Bar and Grill and the Fifth Quarter Shufflers (formerly Hooterville Shufflers) have each won their first two matches.

John Sasse, a new pastor for the Catholic parishes of Saint Andrew and Saint William, serves over 800 families, works in his office.
Pastor: Enjoying busy start to new job Continued from page 1 The biggest difference between Lancaster and Verona that Sasse has noticed so far in his duties is the traffic when he fills in for other clergy in Madison, which makes maintaining his tight schedule tougher. Although he hasn’t gotten to know everyone in the congregation yet, he expects the family structure in Verona is more complex – more incomplete families and fewer children – and that he might need to spend more time educating people about the importance of marriage. Sasse also plans to work to ensure continued faith in God and regain his congregation’s enthusiasm. He said he’s seen a significant drop in church attendance in his more than 20 years in the church, which have spanned seven countries in Europe and South America, including Germany, Rome, Italy, Poland and Spain.
“Very few people get involved in the church and the suicide and drug abuse rate is going up,” he said. “The problem keeps getting worse.” According to a report Sasse picked from a pile of papers spread across his desk, only about 700 out of 2,400 registered parish members still attend Mass regularly on the weekend, which he said means he needs to find creative ways to reach out and get them back. “They would lose sight of God if they don’t go to church,” Sasse said. “Then everything is just by chance and it doesn’t give meaning to life.” One way, he suggested, is to be more active with the church website and participate more in community activities such as drives for school supplies and the food pantry. He said his multicultural experience and language
skills, including Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, German and Dutch, can also help with outreach. The prospect of solving social problems, such as violence, drug abuse, depression and suicide, motivates him to get church members’ faith back. “If we’re not always opposing evil in an active way and try to be good, we’ll become evil,” Sasse said. “All that evil needs to conquer the world is for good people to do nothing.” Sasse, who went to seminary in Rome, said he has a covenant with God that he will be dedicated to working until he’s 70. After that, he plans to buy a small house along a lake while continuing his hobbies, fishing, golfing and riding his motorcycle. “I have no specific plan yet,” Sasse said. “We’ll see how it goes.”

Mounties On Oct. 5, the first week of the season, the Mountie’s were one of several teams with a missed opportunity for a perfect score. In their match with the Screaming Eagles of Shenanigans, Dan Meinholtz and Mary Humphrey were perfect for seven of the eight frames. However, Clarence Bierman and Dean Disch held them to just 5 points in the sixth frame. Dean and Dan also displayed some game of their own, losing only two frames all night. The Mounties hung on to take this one by 18. In week two action Oct. 12, the Mounties were able to quickly disarm the Norsk-Cowboys, taking an early four-point lead that shot up to a 73-point a d va n t a g e a f t e r s eve n frames.

RESPITE CARE
Q. What is respite care? A. Respite care is temporary, intermittent care provided to an elder or those
with disabilities so the regular caregivers may have an opportunity to have some time for themselves. Respite care not only benefits the senior caregiver. Seniors appreciate respite care as it provides them an opportunity to socialize and converse with someone other than their primary caregiver. The variety of having someone else come into the home adds to their enjoyment of life. Stephen Rudolph And when you schedule respite care to give yourself valuable downtime, FACHE, CSA you’ll likely be more enjoyable company for your loved one, as you will be more rested and relaxed. Without respite care, you’re more likely to become resentful, depressed and more susceptible to infection and illness--all of which you can pass on to the loved one you are caring for. Do yourself and your loved one a favor by making good use of respite care.
Q. What are dental implants? A. Dental implants have been around for decades but have recently become
the standard for replacement of missing teeth, especially the single tooth. A dental implant is an artificial root, sometimes looking similar to a screw that is placed into the jawbone to anchor a tooth. An abutment and crown (cap) is made to connect to this “root”. Dental implants have many advantages and few disadvantages. Implants are immune to tooth decay and erosion. Implants are exceptionally strong and Dr. James Sands, DDS have very high success rates. Implants can replace teeth in places that dentists have had few options in the past. Some disadvantages to implants include, longer treatment times (largely due to healing), restrictive insurance coverage and limitations due to inadequate bone. There are some medical restrictions related to implants, but these are very rare. If you have a tooth or teeth that you miss or need to replace or have been told in the past that there were no options to replace, contact a dentist at Associated Dentists at 848-4000. You may have options now!

INVESTMENTS
Q. Should the current market volatility scare me? A. Halloween is almost here. Of course, most costumes and decorations are more amusing
than frightening. But some people seem to have real fears about other things – such as what may happen in the financial markets. To keep these fears at bay, consider the following suggestions: First, don’t stop investing when the markets are choppy. Once you’re out, you could miss the next rally. Next, don’t chase after “hot” stocks. They may already have cooled off by the time you hear about them, and they might not even be appropriate for your needs. It’s also smart not to invest too aggressively or too cautiously. If you constantly push your portfolio toward the maximum possible returns, you might take on too much risk. Conversely, if you are determined to avoid any amount of loss, at any time, you might ® Brendon Diers, AAMS invest too conservatively to achieve your financial objectives. No matter what you do, you Financial Advisor can’t take all the uncertainty out of investing. But understanding market volatility and your portfolio can help you invest with more confidence as you move toward your goals. This article was written by Edward Jones for the use by your local Edward Jones Financial Advisor.

REAL ESTATE
Q. What is a home warranty and how does it work?
A. A home warranty is very similar to a warranty on a car. If you have a problem such as your furnace going out or your garage door opener breaks, the warranty coverage could fix it. Some sellers and agents like to use the warranty as a marketing tool by offering it with the sale of a home. Many buyers like the security of having a warranty in place so they don’t end up with a big unexpected expense in their first year of ownership. On the downside, it can sometimes be a bit of a hassle to get a repair done, and the contracted technician may fix things as cheaply as possible. For Keith & Kinsey Schulz example, if the gas valve on your furnace fails; the technician might repair or replace that valve, but they aren’t going to replace your furnace. The typical deductible for Real Estate Team each repair or service call is a $75 or $100 and the warranties typically cost $400$600. This can pay for itself quickly if you do have a few covered repairs. If you are interested in a home warranty, just let your agent know. They can explain to you the options of including it in the offer and setting it up as part of your closing. Making a Difference, One Home at a Time!

and mandible (lower jaw) meet. There are 2 TMJ’s (one located in front of each ear canal) that work as a modified ‘ball and socket’ joint to allow the jaw to open and close. These joints work hundreds of times a day (more than any other joint in the body), while a person is talking, biting, chewing, and yawning. Temporomandibular Disorder (TMD) occurs when one or both TMJ’s are not functioning properly. This can occur due to muscle imbalance, repetitive use injury, direct trauma, stress or with cervical spine issues. Common symptoms of TMD include: pain with jaw movement or with palpation Susan Armstrong, MPT of the joints, locking of the jaw, upper neck pain, headaches, ear pain (similar to an earache), grinding, Physical Therapist crunching, or popping sounds with jaw movement, dizziness, fullness of the ear, and ringing in the ear.

the “dog bite” statute, provided for doubled damages if the offending dog injured a person, a domestic animal, or other property and the owner had notice that the dog had previously caused one of these types of injuries without provocation. The most recently amended version of Wis. Stat. § 174.02(1)(b) permits double damages in situations where a dog bites a person with sufficient force to break the skin and cause permanent physical scarring if the owner was on notice that the dog had previously bitten a person with sufficient force to break the skin and cause permanent physical scarring.

Sophomore Meredith Conley returns a forehand Thursday at the WIAA Division 1 individual state girls tennis tournament. A two-time state qualifier, Conley lost the match to Sun Prairie’s Latsami Sysouvanh.
Ending the season at state Conley falls in opening round against familiar foe JEREMY JONES Sports editor
When sophomore Meredith Conley first saw her draw for the WIAA Division 1 individual state tennis tournament, she was understandably annoyed. She was matched up with 13th-seeded Latsami Sysouvanh, a Big Eight Conference rival from Sun Prairie, in the first round Thursday and ended up falling 6-2, 6-1 inside Nielsen Tennis Stadium. “It’s totally random, so there’s nothing I could have done about it,” she said. “My friends got some good draws, so now I am going to cheer them on.” Conley finished the season 22-7, while Sysouvanh (29-4) went on to fall 6-3, 7-6 (3) in the quarterfinals to fourth-seeded Whitnall freshman Autumn Bruno (25-2).

Pletta makes second team, Cats finish 6th JEREMY JONES Sports editor
Verona senior Julia Pletta ran to second-team Big Eight all-conference honors Saturday at the Big Eight Conference girls cross country championships at Lake Farm Park in Madison. Pletta, finished 15th in 20 minutes, 4.61 seconds and was the Pletta only all-conference h o n o r e e f o r Ve r o na, which finished fifth out of the 10 schools competing, with a team score of 154.

“There are a lot of people who Meredith can beat. Unfortunately, today she drew Lats,” coach Mark Happel said. To reach the quaterfinals, Sysouvanh had to outlast DeForest freshman No. 2 singles player Samantha Fuchs (35-2). Conley hadn’t played Sysouvanh during the regular season, instead playing No. 1 doubles in the team’s Big Eight Conference dual. The Verona sophomore had played Sysouvanh twice during her freshman season, however. “I was definitely a little bit nervous because I knew Lats could come out and play amazing like she did today,” Conley said. “My goal was just to make it to state and have fun from there. It was a good experience again.” Conley found some success coming in behind short balls and being aggressive. “I was just trying to stay consistent because I know Lats tries to hit the ball really hard and it works,” she said. “I knew Sysouvanh has been battling some ankle problems, but her movement was still really good, so it didn’t matter. That strategy worked as I could expect, but it
wasn’t going to win the match.” Conley, who had played basketball until high school, now focuses on tennis year-round, playing in a lot of USTA tournaments, as well as at Hitters in Middleton. With two more years, Happel said, the goal for Conley would be to earn a seed at state herself. That’s not easy to do, though, he said. “Girls tennis right now — particularly at singles — is very strong,” he said. But Conley took a tremendous step from last year to this season, he added. “She developed a much more well-rounded game. Hopefully, she will continue to do that. And get more tools to win more matches,” Happel said. “She works incredibly hard. I’m very excited to see the 2018 edition of Meredith.” Third-seeded Kiki Risgaard (28-2) of Neenah upset top-seeded Andie Weise of Homestead 7-5, 6-0 in the championship match for her first state title. It was the first loss of the season for Weise (36-1). Divine Savior Holy Angels junior Logan White (23-4) was seeded fifth but played

Verona finishes sixth at Big Eight JEREMY JONES Sports editor
Senior Peter Barger and junior Jason Ford each cracked the top 25 on Saturday as the Verona boys cross country team finished sixth at the Big Eight Conference meet. Barger finished a teambest 22nd place, covering the 5K Lake Farm Park course in 16 minutes, 56.49 seconds. Ford (25th) was a little more than four seconds off Barger’s pace, in 17:00.89. The Wildcats scored 157 team points, and Middleton won with a team score of 22. Madison West (64) and Sun Prairie (94) finished second and third, respectively. Madison La Follette was fourth with a 100 and Janesville Craig finished fifth with 139. “The course was soft and somewhat slippery but really not as bad as I thought it might be,” coach Randy Marks said. “Dry, the course can be quite fast, but that was not the case Saturday. We felt that fifth place was a reasonable goal for us, and if five guys ran well, we could a c h i eve t h a t . We n e e d a few more PRs to take fifth.” Sophomores Nathan Neitzel and Eric Blum finished .78 apart. Neitzel posted a 17:24.11 for 33rd place. Blum took 34th in a personal-best 17:24.89.

It only took one touchdown for the Verona Area High School football team to win Friday in a rain-soaked regular season finale. The Wildcats (6-3) trailed by a field goal in the fourth quarter, but senior running back Joe Riley was able to score on a 1-yard run to make it 7-3. Both teams struggled to pass the ball on a cold, rainy night. Senior quarterback Aaron Young was 2-for-14 with 11 yards, and Craig quarterback Ben Coulter was 2-for-6 with two interceptions and 17 yards. Craig quarterback Skylar Mashek threw one pass, which was picked off. Verona was outgained 145-126, but Riley, who rushed for 42 yards on 16 carries, was the only player to make it into the end zone. Senior split end Carson Bull added 41 yards rushing on six carries for the Wildcats. Kicker Michael Feirn hit a 27-yard field goal in the second quarter for the only offense by the Cougars (4-5). The Verona defense did the rest. Senior defensive back Tucker Teskey finished with seven total tackles and two interceptions, and senior defensive back Bui Clements added an interception. Junior linebacker Dylan Bourne had 15 total tackles, and senior defensive lineman Reagan Stauffer and senior defensive back Jack Lilly each had 12 total tackles.

Verona’s boys cross country team travels to the Windsor Sports Complex at 11:45 a.m. Saturday for the WIAA Division 1 DeForest sectional. Middleton is ranked atop the Wisconsin Cross Country Coaches Association’s Division 1 state poll.

He said the Wildcats will look to edge Baraboo for third place. Baraboo beat Verona twice this season “by fairly small margins,” he said. “We are looking to run a smarter, more aggressive and confident race on Saturday, and if we run well, (we) have a good shot at third place,” Marks said. Senior Peter Barger ranks second as a possible individual qualifier and junior Jason Ford is ninth. “Qualifying one is very possible and both are in the cards, if Jason really wants it and goes for it,” Marks said.

Ironman: Marks plans to run the Boston Marathon next Continued from page 1 I was racing. “I wasn’t trying to qualify for Kona, but just to race on my ‘home field.’” Marks, a 1995 Verona Area High School graduate and son of its longtime cross country coach, had participated in the 2013 Ironman Wisconsin before moving to New York, where he’s now a USA Triathlon and track and field certified coach. “I was inspired when I was home watching it one year, so I signed up,” he said of the Madison race. An endurance athlete his whole life, he led VAHS to a state cross country title in 1991 and a state track title in 1992. He competed in track and cross country at UW-Oshkosh despite graduating from UW-Madison and represented Team USA at the ITU Duathlon World Championships. Marks began coaching in 2000 and now works with triathletes, runners, cyclists and beginner open water
swimmers. Marks has had numerous successes in triathlons and was named a USA Triathlon All-American in 2016. He also has completed the six Abbott World Marathon Majors (New York, Boston, Chicago, Tokyo, Berlin, London) and all triathlon distances (sprint, Olympic, half Ironman, Ironman). He has been a marathon major’s finisher in all six world events and plans to race in the Boston Marathon next spring. Kona was only in his third Ironman, and he got there by improving his time from 11 hours, 50 minutes to 10 hours 10 minutes between Wisconsin and Lake Placid. But the course at Kona was “unforgiving,” he said, and preparations were tough. “The wind and heat are legendary,” he said. “I spent a lot of time training in hot weather and even spent time in the sauna and steam room.” Swimming offered an extra challenge, with all the men starting together. They are all “good athletes and Type A” personalities and were

jockeying for position. “It was claustrophobic,” he said When traveling the course on land, Marks said he concentrated on working his way from aid station to aid station, grabbing liquid on the go. Other than his feet being blistered, the only injury to him and his team of supporters came when his mother, Mary Ruth Marks, stepped on a sea urchin and had to get a few barbs removed. His time was 201st of 256 in the men’s 40-44 age group. He finished 1,075 out of all 1,692 men. Marks said he will continue competing as long as my body will allow him. It’s in the blood, after all. Marks said his dad, Randy, “didn’t push” him or his siblings to running but “introduced them.” “Then, when you realize you are successful at something you want to continue it,” he said. “Plus, endurance sports are good for your lifestyle.”

It didn’t help that junior outside Nikki Phelps hurt her ankle during the Craig match, leaving the girls a little short-handed on a long day. The Wildcats ended up 5-1 and third overall in the tournament with a 2-0 (2510, 25-12) win over Beloit Memorial. “Taking third was still a big achievement for us,” Karnosky said. “I feel like it was still a good spot to be in, and we are just hoping we can bounce back from Nikki being hurt and just keep moving forward for the postseason.” With a mixture of veterans and younger girls, the 2017 season has had many successes, including a win over Sun Prairie, ranked ninth at the time, as well as the third-place finish Saturday. Seniors Priya Shenoi, Kirstin Tidd, Hannah Worley, Amie Rudnicki and Karnosky have contributed this year, but the younger girls have been key, as well. Juniors Megan Touchett, Sydney Rae, Sophie Alexander, Emma Frahm, Amelia Walton, Lindsey Hollar and Phelps and sophomores Jordan Armstrong, Amelia Hust and Maddy Kelley have all ended up on the stat sheet this year, and the depth has helped Verona match up with their opponents’ rotations. “I am super confident in our team right now,” Karnosky said. “We have come really far. I am really surprised with how well we have been doing in conference and in the tournament. I think the sophomores have finally found their place with the team, which is really nice to see. “If our team bond continues to stay strong, then we go all the way to state.” Middleton, which was without junior captain outside hitter Lilly Welti, ended up 1-3 in pool play and lost the tiebreaker for second with 10th-seeded Beloit Memorial. The Cardinals finished ninth. Sun Prairie went 3-1 in pool play, with the lone loss coming to fifth-seeded Madison Memorial, but Craig ended up winning the tournament title. “It goes to show that you can’t take anybody in our conference lightly,” coach Kelly Annen said. “In the postseason, anyone can come on.”
What’s next Third-seeded Verona hosts No. 14 Madison East at 7 p.m. Thursday in the WIAA Division 1 regional semifinals. The winner takes on the winner of No. 6 DeForest/ No. 11 Madison La Follette at 7 p.m. Saturday in a D1 regional final. In pool play, Verona swept Janesville Parker 2-0 (25-20, 25-19), Beloit Memorial 2-0 (25-12, 26-24) and Madison La Follette 2-0 (25-19, 25-10).
Cats get 3 seed Now, the Wildcats prepare for the WIAA Division 1 playoffs and competition in Sectional 3. Verona was awarded the No. 3 seed and opens regional at 7 p.m. Thursday against No. 14 Madison East. The winner of that match will take on the winner of No. 6 DeForest and No. 11 Madison La Follette Saturday in the regional final. No. 2 Waunakee hosts No. 15 La Crosse Central, and No. 7 Holmen hosts No. 10 Baraboo in the rest of the bottom part of the bracket. “It is nice to steer clear from the Big Eight teams in the first few rounds,” Annen said. “Playing an opponent two or three times is really tough. … You begin to know them, and they know you, and it could be anyone’s game. This gives us a lot of opportunity to plan ahead and focus.” Sun Prairie is the top seed and has a bye, taking on the winner of No. 8 Onalaska and No. 9 Madison Memorial. Middleton is seeded fourth and will host No. 13 Tomah, and No. 5 Monona Grove takes on No. 12 Madison West. Sectional semifinals are Thursday, Oct. 26, at Middleton, and the sectional final is at 7 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 28, at Baraboo. Annen said that it helps that Verona has two girls who have been state, with Worley and Shenoi both being on the 2015 team that made the D1 state semifinals.

History: Thirty Verona Area High School students are enrolled in sports history class Continued from page 1 sure this was a history class with sports, tie the two together,” Asendorf said. “The class I took … was more the history of the actual sport. We’re looking for significant historical events that are related to sports and vice versa.” They were also inspired by a coworker. The popularity and creativity of a class focused on Rock and Roll history, which Andy Larson began teaching last year, gave them an extra push. “We finally decided we were just going to do it,” Asendorf said. “If we’re going to have a Rock ’n’ Roll class, we can do sports and history.” It’s already become a favorite for some students. Sky LaCombe recalled being “really excited” as soon as she saw it in the course prospectus last spring. “ I ’ m r e a l l y i n t o s p o r t s ,” LaCombe said. “(It’s cool to learn) how they’ve evolved.” Even as the teachers adjust to occasionally having most of a class period focus on current events like Trump’s comments, the class will continue to look back at major historical events through the lens of sports, from racial integration to the backdrop of the Cold War during the Miracle on Ice at the 1980 Olympics. “Just trying to find different hooks for kids to get into in history,” Behringer explained. “Sports was definitely a hook for me.”

Teacher Sara Asendorf talks with her class about that day’s agenda, which included a look at women in baseball.
footage of Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton making fun of a female beat writer asking him a question about route-running by a wide receiver. “It’s funny to hear a female talk about routes,” Newton said at an Oct. 4 press conference. As soon as the clip ended, Asendorf asked her students – 28 of them boys and two girls – what they thought. “He’s saying that females don’t know that much about football,” said one student. “Him and other football players don’t hear it (football strategy) Keeping current very often from a woman,” added On a recent Thursday, the class another. began a discussion about womAsendorf pressed the class for en’s role in sports after viewing more, telling her class that there
was “no way” it was the first time a woman asked him a football question. That led to a discussion of the general male domination of the sports writing industry. That was an important one for Asendorf, she said later, because she’s noticed the girls who are in the class are “pretty quiet.” “I talk to them about that every other day basically, gender in sports,” Asendorf said. “Don’t assume because she’s a woman that she’s less competent than you are when it comes to sports.” It’s a lesson she hopes will be realized outside the classroom. “I do want them to recognize things that they might be saying to someone because they’re a woman, and they might not even
realize that’s why,” Asendorf said.
Looking back The topics the teachers have been able to plan for this semester are organized by sport, with baseball first on the list. But they’re open to changing that next year. “We’re already realizing that in the future we could do it by theme,” Behringer said. “We could do a women and sports unit, race and sports, class and sports.” After discussing Newton to keep up with current events two weeks ago, the class turned back to its planned early October topic: the Black Sox scandal. Eight players on the Chicago White Sox, including “Shoeless”
Joe Jackson, were permanently banned from baseball for intentionally throwing games in exchange for money in the 1919 World Series because of their low pay. The students began to discuss the morality of the incident, with one student claiming there was no justification for what they had done. “If they don’t like what they’re being paid, they shouldn’t work for (the owner),” he said. Some wondered whether those players really had other options, and others pointed out that the paying customers and the other team were also harmed in the process. After the discussion concluded, each student had to fill out a worksheet explaining how a player had performed in that World Series compared to their average statistics, whether that individual was convicted of cheating and then explain what they thought of that player after looking at that information. That work is what the teachers are glad to be providing, a different entry point for their students to a subject and method they know is important. “We’re still getting them to do primary source analysis,” Behringer said, cracking a smile. “I’ve done more primary source analysis in sports and history in a month than I do in some of my other classes in four months. “They’re like, ‘I get to look at a box score from the 1919 World Series? Cool.’” Contact Scott Girard at ungreporter@wcinet.com and follow him on Twitter @sgirard9.
