History guru teaches
about Civil War era
SCOTT DE LARUELLE
Unified Newspaper Group
One-hundred-and-fifty
years ago, teenagers and
young men right off the
farms of Dane County went
off to fight and die in
the Civil War.
Thankfully for the Bad-
ger St at e, bat t l es were
fought far from home, but
the effects were felt all
over Wisconsin, as more
than 12,000 men from the
state died during the war,
of the 91, 000-plus who
served. The impact on the
areas history was great,
and though its faded by the
passing of each generation,
people like Lyle Laufen-
berg do their part to pass on
importance of remembering
the Civil War, and those
who fought in it.
Laufenberg, a life-long
Dane County resident and
Oregon School Di st ri ct
teacher of 41 years, just
cant shake the history bug
during his recent retirement
years. And the students at
Rome Corners Intermediate
School who know him as a
faithful volunteer and liv-
ing history guru, they are
all the better for it.
Laufenberg, whos volun-
teered at the school for the
past five years, sets up shop
in an open team area a few
times a week during stu-
dents lunch breaks, talking
about history in general, but
more specifically about the
Civil War.
Its an interesting group,
and the kids find the Civil
War interesting, he said.
I dont focus on war and
blood and guts, rather the
time period that made it
quite a shift in this coun-
trys history.
Not coincidentally, he
started getting interested in
history at about the same
age as the kids.
I was in grade school
and had a cousi n who
did some research on the
Laufenberg family history
and background, and there
turned out to be knights
and castles over in Germa-
ny; part of Charlemagnes
r eal m, he sai d. I ve
always been interested in
history, but my parents
were tenant farmers, so
we moved frequently and
didnt have a lot of ties.
A teacher named Bob
Hoffman helped him study
about his familys origins,
going back many genera-
tions. When he found out
his wife Lindas several
great grandfather served
in the Union Army out of
Wisconsin, he was hooked.
Since Linda was also a

Leading the
Herd
Farmer, mentor teaches
local youth to show cattle
VICTORIA VLISIDES
Oregon FFA member
Jordan Beyler doesnt have
any farm animals of her
own, but shell still have
a chance to show cattle
because of the help she gets
from a local farmer whos
been mentoring kids like
her for about a decade.
Beyler is among count-
less Oregon-area youth
who have been able to get
hands-on experience with
showing cattle because of
help from the Caine family
of Fitchburg.
Local farmers since the
1940s and business own-
ers since 1955, Jeanne and
Tom Caine laid a founda-
tion in community service
and farming for their son
Pat, 47, to continue having
kids come out to the farm.
Weve all always been
into the cattle, Jeanne
said.
Pat, a Fitchburg native,
lives at the fifth-genera-
tion dairy operation with a
two-story farm house. The
1985 graduate of Oregon
Hi gh School grew up
showing horses competi-
tively.

He hopes eventually to
turn the building into a wel-
come center for Oregon
residents and visitors to the
community. He also hopes to
enlist the help of folks from
the Oregon Senior Center in
staffing a future welcome
center.
It could be to welcome
people coming into town, or
also it could be for people in
the village to use it for any-
thing that seems appropri-
ate, he said.
Glysch planned to discuss
the idea with the villages
Historic Preservation Com-
mission on Wednesday this
week, and later seek Village
Board approval.
Glysch last held a fund-
raiser for the restoration proj-
ect on March 30 at Masons
on Main. At that point, hed
al most si ngl e-handedl y
raised $5,000 for the project,
which added to an existing
village water tower fund of
about $3,300.
Glysch told the Observer
on Monday that the account
now has $12,735, and he
plans to hold another fund-
raiser as soon as the Village
Board approves it.
Were going to push brick
pavers as a new kind of fund-
raiser, for the walkway up to
the front door, he said. Ive
worked out a good deal with
Madison Block and Stone for
some really nice pavers.
The pavers would come
in two sizes: 8-inches-by-8
inches, and 8-inches-by-16
i nches. The 8-by-8 i s
going to be $150 with the
engraving; the 8-by-16 will
be $275, Glysch said.
Glysch said his long-term
goal is to raise $40,000 for
the project.
At Wednesdays meet-
ing, Glysch was scheduled
to discuss and seek approval
for tuckpointing the building,
cleaning its exterior brick
and repainting its trim. He
was also planning propose a
new gooseneck lighting fix-
ture for the building.
Once the tuckpointing is
finished, he plans to begin
planting and making land-
scaping improvements on the
building grounds.
All the landscaping plants
are waiting for me, he said.
June 28 is when were going
to install the landscaping.
Glysch secured donations
of plants and other landscap-
ing elements from several
area businesses.
Hes also received a new
bench that was donated by
the family of Dick and Don-
na Sheil.
Glysch said once the vil-
lage approves his various
plans for the pump house,
hell still needs the approval
of the State Historical Soci-
ety because the building is on
the State Register.
Since the early 1980s, the
building has been used most-
ly for storage and has gradu-
ally deteriorated.

$10,000.

YOU
OREGON!
St. Johns Lutheran Church wants to thank the community
of Oregon for the continued support of our Fish Fry
Fundraisers. What started in 2006 as a way to help an
individual in need, has become so much more! Since
2006, you have helped our fundraising efforts to raise over
$65,000. Our latest events raised $5,300 for the Helping
Hands Fund, Oregon Food Pantry and the NINA Fund.
Thrivent Financial for Lutherans has approved $2,500 in
matching funds to also be distributed between these three
local funds. In addition, $63 was given for the Guatemala
eye glass ministry. We cant do this without you Oregon...
so we thank everyone that participates for their continued
support. We look forward to seeing you at the next events,
in the spring of 2015. Watch for our signs on the street
corners or iers around town.

Only five projects
chosen from 86 in state
SCOTT DE LARUELLE
Its hard to get students
to sign up by the dozens for
a class, but thats exactly
whats happening at Ore-
gon High School, where
staff recently won a $2,000
grant for the Oregon High
School video game devel-
opment class.
The OHS proposal was
one of only five projects
chosen from 86 applica-
t i ons f or a Wi sconsi n
Retired Educators Asso-
ci at i on (WREA) grant .
WREA officials said it was
the highest rated due to its
creativity and because they
like seeing students develop
things, said district tech-
nology director Jon Tan-
ner. The school has spent a
portion of the funds on new
monitors for students.
Students are getting the
training and hands-on expe-
rience to take advantage of
this cutting-edge opportu-
nity, he said.
The OHS program start-
ed i n Sept ember 2012,
when t he f i r s t Vi deo
Game Development class
launched as part of the
Technology Education pro-
gram. Teacher Erik Haak-
enson said the impetus for
beginning the program was
both requests from students
and the knowledge that
video games are rapidly
growing job market with
opportunities for program-
mers, artists, writers and
musicians. Students started
with low-level software and
have progressed to using
high-end, industry-standard
3D game technology. The
interdisciplinary work is
also connecting students
who may not normally col-
laborate, with tech ed stu-
dents working with the high
school music department
to develop musical scores
for games, and with the art
department to develop visu-
al art for the games.
Haakenson, who last year
presented information on
the program to the SLATE
(School Leaders Advancing
Technology in Education)
conference, said the class
provides students with con-
nections to the real world,
including bringing in game
design professionals from
nearby Raven software to
answer questions, describe
what its like to develop
games and give students
tips on their work. He said
students were thrilled to
get feedback from a devel-
oper who worked on the
popular Call of Duty game
franchise.
And no doubt, the vide
game development class is
popular among students,
who have already filled two
sections for next school
year, with a growing wait-
ing list.

Oregon named 21st
safest city in state
A home security and
safety organization named
Oregon one of Wiscon-
sins 50 safest cities.
SafeWise, which focus-
es on comparing top secu-
rity providers to allow
consumers to best protect
their homes, compiled the
list based on the list of
crimes in part one of the
FBI Unified Crime Report
data.
That data focuses on
violent crimes like aggra-
vated assault, forcible
rape, murder and robbery
and property crimes such
as arson, burglary, larce-
ny-theft and motor vehicle
theft.
Or egon pl aced 21st
on the list, just behind
Kaukauna and ahead of
DeForest.
SafeWise found Oregon
had .32 violent crimes and
12.97 property crimes per
1,000 residents.
"In Wisconsin, direct
involvement from both
the police departments
and citizens helps foster
safe and positive environ-
ments," SafeWise security
analyst Carolyn Heneghan
said in a press release.
"All 50 cities on our list
made an impressive effort
to maintain a sense of
securi t y for resi dent s,
while ensuing an excellent
quality of life.
The city of Freedom
t opped t he l i st , whi l e
Altoona ended the list at
50.
Only cities with popu-
lation above 5,000 were
considered.
POLICE REPORTS
Reports taken from Oregon
Police log book.
March 28
7:30 p.m. A 36-year-old
woman reported she had
been stranded in Madison
since March 25, and could
not get to her apartment
on the 500 block of South
Perry Parkway to feed her
cat. She told police she had
no way back to Oregon and
no friends or family to take
care of the cat. The woman
asked the officer to provide
the cat with food and water,
and said her apartment door
was unlocked. An officer fed
and watered the cat and con-
tacted the Humane Society.
March 30
man reported his 36-year-
old neighbor on the 500
block on Main Street was
using the buildings washing
machine, which creates a lot
of noise. The man said the
noise wakes his child. The
36-year-old said he would
try to avoid doing laundry
after 9 p.m. when possible.
The reporter was concerned
neighbors might retaliate for
his complaining, and will call
back if problems come up.
March 31
man reported his 60-year-
old neighbor on the 200
block of Oak Street was
spreading that he was a thief
and stole her oxycodone.
The man denied he took any
oxycodone and wanted the
woman to stop talking about
him. Police told the two to
not have any further contact
with each other.
5:30 pm. A 29-year-old
man came into the police
station to pay a parking
ticket. The man was upset
about the ticket and said to
the police department clerk
that the ticket was extortion
and police better watch
(their) back. Police contact-
ed the man at his residence
and told him about the court
process to dispute a ticket
and discussed his behavior
and comments at the police
station. The man called the
department and apologized
to the clerk.
man and woman found a
pile of material under a pine
tree in their yard on the 600
block of Sumac Street. The
material was crystalized
with yellow, blue and green
colors and had a strong
chemical odor. They called
the DNR, and after that they
suspected it could have been
waste from a meth cook. The
woman had smelled the odor
for around a month, but just
found the material the day
before around 9:30 a.m.
They cleaned up the material
in trash bags and hosed the
area down.
April 1
woman reported a wild ani-
mal that looked like a wood-
chuck or muskrat was in
their familys window well
on the 700 block of Leeward
Lane. When police arrived,
the family had already freed
the animal.

history buff, the two immediate-
ly got more interested in the time
period, immersing themselves as
historical re-enactors and educa-
tors.
Laufenberg said he gets a lot out
of an authentic re-enactor expe-
rience, though his body doesnt
respond like it used to.
Ive had to be a little bit care-
ful with my back after I had back
surgery, and the marching is get-
ting a little hard on my feet, he
chuckled.
Live fire
When he really wants to get up
close and personal with the Civil
War, Laufenberg helps load, aim
and fire an authentic 12-pound
1863 Napoleon cannon from
Battery B of the Wisconsin 2nd
Infantry, a group of southern Wis-
consin-based re-enactors. The gun
(which Laufenberg said is techni-
cally a gun/howitzer because it
can be elevated like a howitzer
but fired like a gun), belongs to
the Wisconsin National Guard and
was forged by the Revere Copper
Company, founded by Revolution-
ary War icon Paul Revere.
In history, the soldiers of the
2nd Wisconsin Volunteer Infan-
try Regiment (as well as the 6th
and 7th) were comprised of sev-
eral units from Dane County such
as the Stoughton Light Guard,
The Randall Guards and The
Anderson Guards.
The 2nd Wisconsin was one
of the first regiments to fight in
1861, suffering severe casualties
at the inaugural Battle of Bull Run
(Manassas, Va.), where their gray
uniforms with black trim caused
friendly fire, Laufenberg said, one
of many humbling events for a
confident Union army.
There was a great amount of
enthusiasm to get the war over in
90 days in one good battle, he
said.
Laufenberg said there are a
variety of types of people who
are Civil War re-enactors. Some
of the hard-core, detail-oriented
ones call themselves progressive
or authentics, (otherwise known
by some a bit derisively as stitch-
counters), while Laufenberg said
he and his comrades in the 2nd
Wisconsin simply try to match
their gear to that of the day, as best
as possible, without getting their
wool britches in a bundle.
We just try to be reasonably
authentic, because you can never
totally re-create it from back then -
the weaving was different, slightly
different materials, he said. The
uniforms I have are made from
patterns of the time, the materials
are as close as we can get.
The Civil War was a non-stan-
dard war the uniforms were of a
lot of variety, because they tended
to need things in a hurry.
Battery B is made up of around
two dozen members from all over
the southern part of the state and
as far north as Green Bay, who
have participated in events around
state and as far away as the Get-
tysburg in southern Pennsylvania.
The group does much of its work
with schools, giving presentations
throughout the year to groups big
and small. Members also spend
considerable time on training, to
make sure everyone is capable of
different roles, depending who can
make an event on a particular day.
One fellow used to drive in all
the way from Fargo, Laufenberg
said.
Passing on knowledge
So why in the world do people
drive to Dane County from Fargo,
and visit schools every week to
talk about something that hap-
pened so long ago?
It depends who you ask, of
course.
For Laufenberg, the Civil War
is and always will be important for
kids and adults to know about,
because it ended slavery and fun-
damentally changed the nature of
how all Americans viewed them-
selves and their country.
At a terrible cost in blood, the
union had been preserved.
Up until 1861, you were the
34 un-tied states, and everybody
said, Well, we could break off
if we really wanted to, he said.
Massachusetts talked about it
during the War of 1812, South
Carolina in the 1820s and 40s and
50s before they were actually the
first to do it.
Before the war, the United
States are a country - after the
war, the United States is a coun-
try.
Perhaps just as important, his-
torical re-enactors like Laufenberg
honor the everyday people who
experienced the horrors of the Civ-
il War, hoping to keep their lives
as normal as possible before they
returned.
These were real people going
through real things away from
home, and trying to get back
information; theyve got friends
and families, he said. Its tough
times. It isnt all blood and bugles
and glory. Its dealing with life as
you have it.
To help carry home the very
personal nature of what soldiers
were going through, Laufenberg
carries a beat-up, Civil War-era
tintype about 2 by 3 inches of
two young girls. The identity of
the owner of the tintype and the
girls is probably lost to history,
but the message remains.
My two daughters are grown
up now, but at one time they were
about the age of 4 and 6 about
the ages of the girls in this picture
and my girls would have looked
somewhat like that, he said. Its
one of those things you would

Another art award for
OHS Zernick
Oregon High School senior Jen-
nifer Zernick is cleaning up the
awards this year. She earned sec-
ond place in the recent Annual
Congressional Art Competition
entitled An Artistic Discovery.
Her painting was a creatively
designed acrylic painting titled,
Faces of Us. At an April 24 cere-
mony at the Verona Public Library,
she received her award from U.S.
Rep. Mark Pocan of Wisconsins
2nd District. There were 30 entries
from various schools in the district.
Zernicks winning piece will be
displayed in Pocans Washington
D.C. office for the next year. It is
such an inspiration to see the cre-
ative artwork as I head to the house
to vote, Pocan said.

The Good News
Imagine a newscast every evening with headlines such as Crime Is
Down and Charitable Giving Is Up and People Are Helping Others
Everywhere. Miracle of Miracles, that is indeed the case in many
places around the world, but you wouldnt know it from watching the
news. But, perhaps one way to put all of this good news in perspec-
tive is to realize that people helping others is such a commonplace
practice that it doesnt make the news unless its something really
extraordinary. Likewise, the millionaires and billionaires who give
generously have become so commonplace that they even have their
own club and well over a hundred have signed onto a pledge, the
so-called Giving Pledge, which commits them to give away the
bulk of their fortunes. People who perform horrific acts of cruelty or
commit heinous crimes are pretty much the exception to the rule of
people acting decently, and that is why their heinous crimes make the
news. Its just too shocking to ignore. So, perhaps we should remind
ourselves every day of the Good News that is all around and spread
the word to others.

the treacherous is for violence.

Stamp of approval
OHS students place in national art contest
The coming of spring brings
the return of ducks and all sorts
of waterfowl to Wisconsin, so
its only fitting that this time of
the year marks the return of a
national duck stamp competition.
Ten Oregon High School stu-
dents were recognized for their
recent submissions for the annual
U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service
Junior Federal Duck Stamp com-
petition, including several who
earned top finishes. Senior Eliza
Neidhart took first place with
her watercolor painting of a pair
of blue-winged teal, while fel-
low seniors Abby Meier and Jen
Zernick garnered second place
finishes. This was the third year
Zernick placed in the competition
and the second for Meier. Junior
Marissa Wedderspoon earned a
third place ribbon with her acryl-
ic painting. Earning honorable
mention awards were: seniors
Ashley Quamme and Ellerey
Nault, juniors Rosilyn Phillips
and Alyssa Sieger and sopho-
mores Samantha Girard and Jil-
lian Moss.
The contest was created more
than two decades ago to raise
awareness and appreciation for
wetlands and waterfowl con-
servation for students in grades
K-12. It is modeled after the
Federal Duck Stamp Contest
for adult artists. Students create
original artwork showing North
American ducks, geese, or swans
in their natural habitats.
The national competition is
held on Friday, April 18,, and the
top winners piece will be made
into the Junior Duck Stamp,
which the U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service will sell for $5 to raise
money for wildlife awareness
and education.
OHS art instructor Michael
Derrick said the competition
was the perfect opportunity for
students to learn about conserva-
tion and meet many of the state
and national standards regarding
the inclusion of environmental
education into the curriculum.
They began the project with a
presentation about the conser-
vation movement that began in

Pat woul d event ual l y
become the main caretaker
of his parents herd, which
includes about 40 main
milking cows, allowing him
to become the skilled in
everything about cattle.
Learning, growing and
caring for farm animals are
values Pat aims to pass on to
younger generations.
His farming experience,
education, including a 1988
farming and industry asso-
ciate degree at University
of Wisconsin-Madison, and
passion for the animals has
led him to allow youth, from
ages 8 or 9 to high school,
to show his herd, which has
a total of 112 Brown Swiss
cattle.
Its something he learned
to enjoy through watching
his parents Tom, 81, and
Jeanne, 80, as 4H leaders
when he was a kid.
But Pat said his teachings
go beyond showing cattle.
He wants students to know
how to care for their animal
thoroughly from ensur-
ing a proper diet to how to
groom it and he watches as
they build a bond that goes
beyond simply using the
cattle to win fair competi-
tions. His goal is for them
to also learn sound animal
care, cultivation and breed-
ing from the start of a calfs
life.
Always available
Pats dedication to teach-
ing kids about cattle is
part of what makes him an
amazing teacher, said
Becki Cl ark, parent of
Baily Clark, whos shown
with Caine for nearly three
years.
Hes constantly telling
them whats going on with
the calf, she said. All the
ins and outs about This is
how its born, and this is
how it eats. The kids are
extremely comfortable with
him and have a great time.
Though its not uncom-
mon for local kids who are
growing up in the suburbs
to find a farm that lets them
use their animals for show-
ing, said Becki, Pats flex-
ibility in working with the
kids schedule and always
being willing to answer their
questions makes him an
invaluable mentor.
Parent Pam Beyler said
Caine is always willing to
work around her daughters
schedule. Jordan, an OHS
sophomore is showing cattle
with Caine for the first time,
and her younger sister Cait-
lin, whos been showing
with Caine for nearly three
years, will reach out weekly
to come out to the farm.
They just call him up,
and he says, Yeah, come on
over to the farm, Pam said.
Beyler and Clark agreed
Caines students adore him.
Oregon FFA adviser Jillian
Beaty, who spoke with the
Star last week, added that
a group he mentored last
year even made T-shirts in
his honor that read Team
Caine.
They also agreed that
Caine is the last person who
would want to receive any
recognition for the time he
spends teaching the kids.
He says hell do it as
long as kids want to show,
Becki said.
A coach and teacher
The students show their
cat t l e at t he St ought on
Junior Fair, World Dairy
Expo and Dane County and
state fairs.
Cai ne s t eachi ng i s
hands-on, said Becki,
meaning hell walk with the
student to illustrate how to
show the animal as well as
care for it. And he invites
them to come learn on their
own time. For example, the
Clark family went out to the
300-acre farm on a Saturday
in March to see one of the
new calves being born.
Typically, Caine works
with about eight to 10 kids
weekly and helps out during
competition time, too. Caine
provides the transportation
for animals to the fair while
the families pay for items
like hay bales for the cattle.
Even though he works full
time on a dairy farm with
one farm hand and helps out
his parents, Caine still finds
the time to make each com-
petition.
During fair time, Pat is
there as soon as hes done
milking his cows to 11 p.m.
at night, said Becki Clark.
Long-time showers
Even though Caine has
been working with kids for
years, the process to get
started is pretty informal.
Theres no application
process. The ki ds st art
working with him by simply
asking.
Whoever wants to show
they can, Caine said.
Most hear about hi s
mentoring through word
of mouth or because their
parents know him through
growing up in the Oregon-
Fitchburg area. Kids have
to have a certain amount of
education points or credits
built up in their respective
organizations to ensure they
are familiar with the animal
and its needs before they
can begin. When asked how
much time he spends work-
ing with the kids, he said it
was hard for him to estimate
that because its not about
time.
You know, the way I
look at it, its great for the
kids to do this, he told the
Star. Its a good way to
introduce some of the farm
practices for kids that
dont have the opportunity
to work with cattle.
Caines mother, Jeanne,
recalls their family first
started to show animals in
the Stoughton Junior Fair
around 1947, and said she
isnt surprised her son has
continued to work with
youth as long as he has.
He does it because the
kids want to show, she
said.
Strong bonds
In addition to the edu-
cational value, Pat insists
having fun and being safe
are his priorities for the stu-
dents. For the most part, he
said, they are dedicated, and
hes never had a safety or
behavioral issue.
Throughout the years,
Ive worked with some of
the best kids and some of the
best parents that you could
ever ask for, he said.
Although Caine doesnt
have kids of his own, Becki
Clark said he loves his cattle
as he would his children.
The kids pick up on the
strong bonds he has with his
herd.
You develop a relation-
ship, Caine said. My own
cows have got individual
personalities. I treat them as
individuals, not as a group.
Letting the kids name the
cattle yes, they all have
names and Pat knows each
one by heart helps nurture
that bond so they make
friends, with the animal
they work with, Caine said.
Caitlin Beyler will again
show the same animal she
did a year ago, a winter
yearling heifer she named
Munch.
Beaty describes him as
an open and caring per-
son who has been involved
with Oregon FFA for a long
time and who has enriched
the area with his efforts and
who also has won the FFAs
annual Outstanding Family
Farm Award in 2013.
Hes just such an asset to
the community, she said.
(Hes someone who) we all
love.
Jeanne said Pats work
with the kids is a lot of fun
but it doesnt just benefit the
community.
Its been a great thing for
both him and the kids, she
said. For all of us really, I
should say.

Whats fair
time like?
Participating in a
fair is similar to a
weekend-long sporting
competition that youth
prepare for starting in
April. Showing is done
in front of judges and
the student will present
their cattle, which will
be judged on different
criteria from how they
look to how they act.
The kids will spend
all day at the fair-
grounds on fair days.
That can entail get-
ting up before 5 a.m.
to wash and groom
their cattle and clean
out their pens and, of
course, show them in
competition. The day
can last past 11 p.m. or
longer.

for WIAA D1
playoffs
ANTHONY IOZZO
Assistant sports editor
The Oregon High School
baseball team learned it is a
No. 7 seed in sectional 5 for
this years WIAA Division
1 playoffs.
The Panthers open the
playoffs with a regional
semifinal matchup against
No. 10 Monona Grove. Last
season, Oregon defeated
MG on the road to make the
regional final.
This season, the Panthers
host the regional semifinal
on June 3. The winner trav-
els to No. 2 Stoughton on
June 5 for a chance to make
sectionals.
Oregon continues the sea-
son with two home games

Grove and Tuesday against
Oconomowoc. Both games
are at 5 p.m.

Oregons relays, hurdles
propel Panthers at Badger
South Conference meet
ANTHONY IOZZO
Oregon boys and girls track and
field head coach Ned Lease did the
math and figured Monona Grove and
Monroe were going to score above
140 points before Tuesdays Badger
South Conference meet at Stoughton
High School.
He expected around 90 for his
squad.
But on the strength of a first and
two-place finishes by the relays and
two first in the hurdles, the Panthers
were able to finish in third with 110
points, exceeding some expectations.
We have one of the most well-
rounded teams out there, Lease
said. We have the hurdles covered. We have the jumps covered. We
have the distance covered. We have
the sprints covered. We have the
relays covered.
I was pleased.

their third-set victory over Madison Edgewood last Wednesday. Tollakson and Onesti started
slow but finished strong, winning 3-6, 6-3, 6-4 to help propel the Panthers to a 4-3 victory
that is believed to be the teams first win over the Badger South Conference rival Crusaders.
Panthers finally put away Crusaders
JEREMY JONES
Sports editor
In a Badger South Conference
dual match chalked so fully of
drama that you could have cut
the tension with a knife, the Ore-
gon boys tennis team finally got
the better of Madison Edgewood
on Wednesday at Quann Park.
With players and coach-
es bickering back-and-forth
throughout the evening, it was
the steady play of freshman No.
2 singles player Calvin Schnei-
der that helped the Panthers
secure the 4-3 victory.
The first time in school his-
tory, its huge, said Schnei-
der, whose win helped sent
the seniors, including his older
brother Jackson, out with their
first win against the Crusaders.
Its a big deal for all these
seniors. Theyve worked so hard
everyday in practice, it was just
good to finally get the win.
Calvin breezed through his
first set against Billy OBrien
before having to fight back to
force a third set breaker.
I had a couple of match points
there and I thought if I could just
find a way to battle those off, Id
have a good chance at deuce,
Schneider said. I thought I had
the momentum and could get
him in the breaker.
He did just that to take the
match 6-2, 2-6, 7-6 (6) nearly
simultaneous to the win of soph-
omores Matt Reisdorf and Spen-
cer Kresbach 6-4, 4-6, 6-1 at No.
3 doubles.
Schneider was one of four
freshman to win their singles
flight as fellow underclassman
Charles Donovan cruised 6-2,
6-2 at No. 4 singles, while Madi-
son Edgewoods Philippe Cam-
pos and Cecil Ingrad survived
against a pair of Panther seniors.
Campos held off Brady Beh-
rend 3-6, 6-4, 6-0 at No. 3 sin-
gles, while Ingrad defeated Jack-
son Schneider in one of the most
competitive two-set matches
youll ever see 7-6 (4), 7-6 (6).
The Crusaders secured the first
match of the evening with Noah
Colletti and Thomas Thelen roll-
ing 6-3, 6-4 at No. 2 doubles.
Oregon however, answered with
Donovans win at No. 4 singles
and then picked up a huge win
by Dakota Tollakson and Alec
Onesti at No. 1 doubles.

Home Talent League
Riffle chased in four-run eighth
ANTHONY IOZZO
Pitcher Ben Riffle pitched against the
Verona Cavaliers in the Home Talent League
Final Four for Stoughton last season, but this
year he joined Oregon.
The Orioles rejoined the Home Talent
League after a seven-year hiatus this season,
and Riffle looked to continue his recent suc-
cess against Verona.
He didnt allow a run until the fifth, but it
was the eighth inning that ended Riffles day
in an 8-2 loss.
Derek Murphy reached on an error and
stole second base with two outs, and Bill
Engelhart drove him in to put the Cavaliers
up 3-2. An error by Oregons third baseman
allowed Danny Koss to score, and Matt Gust
followed with an RBI single to right field.
Eric Engler came in to pitch for Riffle, and
he allowed an RBI single by Justin Scanlon.
Engler later surrendered a 2-run home run
to Koss in the ninth.
At the plate, the Orioles were only able to
get two runs in the sixth during a dominant
performance by pitcher Ben Wallace.
After singles by Blake Watzke and Engler,
Jeff Spiwak hit an RBI double, and Ryan
Hoodjer followed with an RBI single to tie
the game at 2.
Verona struck first in the fifth with an
RBI double by Derek Burgenske that scored
David Lund. Zach Spencer followed with an
RBI single.
Riffle took the loss. He allowed two earned
runs on nine hits in 7 2/3 innings. He struck
out two and walked seven.
Wallace went all nine innings for Verona
and struck out 15 while walking one. He
allowed two earned runs on four hits.
Oregon travels to Hollandale at 1 p.m. Sun-
day and travels to Mount Horeb/Pine Bluff at
1 p.m. Monday.

Panthers control destiny
ANTHONY IOZZO

girls soccer team defeated Mil-
ton 5-0 Tuesday putting the
Panthers at 3-1-1 in the Badger
South Conference.
Oregon hosts Stoughton at
7 p.m. Friday. A win clinches
at least a share of the Badger
South Conference title. The
Panthers close the week with a
nonconference game at 7 p.m.
Tuesday against Sauk Prairie at
home.
Whitefish Bay 1, Oregon 0
Freshman Madelyn Peach
made 11 saves last Thursday,
but Oregon fell 1-0 to White-
fish Bay in a nonconference
game.
Amanda Pandl finished with
three saves for Whitefish Bay.
Erin Corrigan scored the only
goal.
Oregon 2, Memorial 1
Sophomore forward Jen
Brien and the rest of the Pan-
thers decided enough was
enough at halftime last Fri-
day at Madison Memorials
Mansfield Stadium.
The Panthers hadnt scored a
goal in five games despite aver-
aging 10-plus shots on goal per
game, but that changed in the
first 10 minutes of the second
half in the 2-1 win.
Brien dribbled into the penal-
ty box on a 1-on-1 and nudged
the ball past the goalie to the
center of the goal. That is when
sophomore forward Makena
Fleming finished the play to tie
the game in the 45th minute.
Brien once again was at the
center of a play a little more
than three minutes later. A
corner kick led to a scramble
for the ball in front of the goal,
and Brien came away with it.
She found the upper right-hand
corner of the net to make it 2-1
Oregon.
We just had our prep talk in
the locker room, Brien said.
We were pumped up and sick
of losing. Once you start off
strong in the second half, then
the mentality got up and the
energy and the positive-ness.
Head coach Julie Grutzner
decided to switch up the for-
mations after trailing 1-0 in the
first half. She moved Fleming
and Brien up in hopes that the
two friends would connect with
each other.
I knew we were faster
offensively, she said. They
are friends and worked off each
other and got those two great
goals. Finally, we scored.
Oregon had numerous
chances in the second half and
held Madison Memorial to just
one shot on goal. Freshman
goalie Abby Brietbach fin-
ished with three saves. Memo-
rial freshman forward Jen Roth
scored the first goal in the sixth
minute.
The Panthers had two shots
on goal in the first half and sev-
en in the second half. Memorial
senior goalie Dani Stroud fin-
ished with seven saves.
They dont give up many
goals. They are kind of like
us. We dont give up a lot of
goals, Grutzner said. After
they scored their goal, we
settled in a bit. We didnt play
a great first half, but in the sec-
ond half, I felt we really picked
it up.
She continued, (Stroud) is

Losing big after a lacklus-
ter start to the first set, the
Panther seniors responded by
taking the final two sets with
relative ease on their way to a
decisive 3-6, 6-3, 6-4 win.
Despite a sluggish start,
Onesti said, We knew we
had it within us. We just had
to find it in time. That second
set we started to have some
fun and went on to take the
match.

Marys Hospital. He was
born Dec. 16, 1929, the son
of Norbert F. and Adelia
(Fass) Haas and grew up
on the home
farm in Rox-
bury. Herbert

regular at McDonalds in

fee to start the day and was
lovingly referred to as the

fee cronies there and at his
delivery stops. He enjoyed
hunting as a younger man.
Herb was a member of Holy
