On Tuesday morning, Mayor Jon Hochkammer was standing on a corner of Main Street and Verona Avenue in the chilly wind, waving a sign promoting his re-election campaign. Twelve hours later, he had won his first challenge in eight years as Veronas mayor, 1,466-1,180 over Chad Kemp. That wasnt the only victory for Hochkammer, who also saw Evan Touchett and Mike Willett return to office as District 4 alder and County Board supervisor, respectively. Each had supported one another on the more conservative side of Verona politics. Touchett was almost more of an incumbent than the person he handily defeated, Mike Bare, having served a full term before becoming one of four incumbents to lose last April in a surprise sweep. Bare was appointed in June after a fifth incumbent resigned in frustration over the change, and that appointment was one of the bitter debates that defined the past year on the Common Council. Another was the transition to a city fire department, which involved a municipal decision to start fresh and open all jobs and spawned a lawsuit that has not yet been resolved. Four of the five new members of the council voted to deny

funding for that Police and Fire Commission decision, a move that first succeeded, then failed after the council overturned it on a mayoral tiebreaker. Those votes inspired Chad Kemps candidacy, and the 34-year-old bankruptcy attorney made the concept of workers rights one of the key points of his campaign. Kemp also preached action on the citys new downtown plan. Willett, a Town of Verona resident and former City of Verona business owner, was also a longtime incumbent who had been ousted two years ago, in District 32 by Erika Hotchkiss in another sweep that eliminated most of the conservative minority on the board. He easily defeated Pat McPartland, who had been endorsed by Hotchkiss a year after she had failed in an attempt to oust Ken Behnke from the Verona Area School Board.

Ebony Nettles-Bey had a wish to meet Miami Heat and NBA basketball star LeBron James. That wish came true for the Verona Area High School junior last Saturday as the Heat visited the Milwaukee Bucks at the Bradley Center. Nettles-Bey, who is battling late-stage cancer, met the entire Miami Heat team, came out with them to the floor, shot jumpers during warmups and stood with the players during the national anthem. Afterward, Nettles-Bey also received a special message Turn to Nettles-Bey/Page 10

Ebony your strength, courage and energy is out of this world, and you will win and defeat this, read part of the message. Nettles-Bey, who has been going through physically draining chemotherapy, was unable to speak with the Verona Press on Monday or Tuesday. But after the game, she told Fox Sports Wisconsin that she started crying tears of joy after meeting her idol, and said that was just another speechless moment. It was very nice of him to say that and show his

Veronas third round of high-visibility drunken driving patrols will be in July this year. The Capital Area OWI Task Force has considered expanding to two or more patrols each year since its inception in 2012, but it has

instead expanded the number of agencies involved, growing to 14 this year. That means when drivers take to the streets that Saturday night, July 26, theyll likely see around 20 police cars patrolling Verona Avenue, Main Street and possibly other roads in the city. Normally, a busy night has two or three officers out on the street.

This years version of the program, which Verona has been involved in from the beginning, kicked off last Saturday in DeForest, where it all began. Its the brainchild of De Forest Lt. Dan Furseth, who started running high-visibility patrols there several years ago to deter drunken driving

Verona Area School District

Committee will rethink school calendar

Decisions about more than this is spring break, this is winter break
SCOTT GiRaRD
Unied Newspaper Group

The Verona Area School District recently created its second new committee of the year focused on outlining the districts future. This one, though, wont look at how to structure a school or redraw boundary lines. Instead, it will consider remodeling or expanding that traditional September to early June schedule that schools have run on for much of

their history. I dont envision a meeting to just decide okay this is spring break, this is winter break, VASD superintendent Dean Gorrell said. The goals of the new committee include looking specifically at the 2015-16 school year calendar, how to extend the school year, increase or maximize hours of instruction and increase the amount of time available for staff development. Gorrell said the focus is especially on finding more time for teacher-parent interaction as the district moves toward every student having a personalized learning plan by the 2016-17 school year. Those plans will outline

specific goals and learning habits for each student, and parents are an important part of determining that structure, Gorrell said. Even with the confines of what we have, should we be expanding (that time) and using fewer days for inclement weather and more for parent-teacher days? Gorrell said. Currently, state law allows for five of a districts 180 scheduled school days to be used for inclement weather or parent-teacher conferences, and Gorrell said the district used just one of those days for conferences this year. Well kind of explore to see what there is about how we could structure this differently, he said.

At the same time, the committee will also consider alternative schedules, such as year-round school, something that has progressed slowly in the United States but is gaining support in some districts, including Oregon, where administrators at one of the districts three elementary schools are scheduling listening sessions to hear from the public on the idea. Gorrell said the group will look at how other districts or schools that have switched to a yearround schedule have handled the transition and how those schools are performing. He also said that if the committee decided something like

a year-round schedule or otherwise differently structured schedule was a fit for one school, it wouldnt necessarily mean every school in the district would to make the change or any other change that might be decided on. The committee will consist of school board members and community members who apply through the districts website by completing a survey. The district has received 49 applications for the committee, and will look for a range of community members to serve including parents of school children and business owners. Gorrell expects the committee to have 15-20 members and to begin regular meetings next fall.

According to a news release from the D a n e County Sheriffs Office: A deputy stopped a c a r f o r Wilkinson speeding around 12:30 a.m. March 28 on Nesbitt Road, just west of Cortina Road. The driver, James E. Wilkinson, 45, underwent field sobriety tests and was arrested for his sixth OWI, a felony. Wilkinson was booked into the Dane County Jail on the OWI offense and was also cited for Speeding and Operating After Revocation. Online court records show Wilkinson was last convicted of OWI in 2010 were he was sentenced to 18 months in prison. Charges for the latest OWI had not been filed as of press time Tuesday.

New state mining bills would take away local property rights
Property rights everyone has them at least until the state legislature takes them away. That is the effect of the sand mine and other mineral related bills currently being backed by conservatives. It sets up a process for businesses involved in mineral extraction that is separate from the normal planning process for rural economic development. The end result is that other rural property owners have no input on issues that impact their property rights and may find themselves subsidizing the profits of mines and quarries. Local governments especially rural towns are where property rights issues are negotiated and where the various parts of the rural economy- homeowners, home-based businesses (about 30 percent of rural homes house a business), farmers etc. discuss what makes their local economies work. Homeowners, farms and businesses want the same stability for their investments, as do the large out of state miners. Favoring the miners will result in less investment in homes and other businesses as websites extol the dangers of buying rural (there are more reasons for caution than just mining). Conservatives going against the principles of local control will slow economic growth across the state in rural communities. George Hagenauer Town of Springdale

A story in last weeks Verona Press about campaign finances included some misleading information regarding incumbent Ald. Mike Bare and his donors. Bare is a registered lobbyist, but the bulk of his job is research and outreach to community advocacy groups. And the in-kind donation from the Democratic Party of Wisconsin was access to the Voter Access Network database, not for a van.

Again, you read that right. There has been so much in the press the last few months about recent security breaches of credit card data that I think people have begun to think that credit cards themselves are the culprits. The fact is, crooks are going to try to take advantage of any opportunity that they can to steal valuable information. Any time your data is out there in any capacity it is at risk and certainly using a credit card puts your data out there. So if you are a credit card lover like me, what should you do in an era of escalating cyber fraud? First of all, know the fraud policies of your card. Call the company and ask what would happen if your card was used fraudulently. Ask if you would be responsible for the charges. In the case of my card I would not be. Also, look at your transactions. One of the biggest mistakes that people make is to not review their statement to make sure the charges are accurate. While credit card companies generally have good software in place to watch for potentially fraudulent activity (in my case the card company will call me if a suspicion occurs), the most accurate safeguard is going to be you. It can also be useful to sign up for electronic alerts. More and more companies are offering the ability to have a text or email alert sent when a suspicious transaction occurs on your account. In some cases, you can have an alert sent any time a charge is made, even if not

suspicious. If you access your account online, make sure you have a secure password. There are lots of tips online for how to select a password and what not to use. The same goes for a PIN if you have one. If your card is involved in a potential breach, consider asking your credit card company for a new account number and card. My credit card company actually automatically assigned me a new account number and sent me a new card because I shopped at Target on Black Friday. If you are still concerned, consider a credit monitoring service. These services will monitor everything that impacts your credit not just credit cards. The extra sense of security that you feel may well be worth the typical $10-15 a month cost. For those affected by Targets data breach, the company is offering a full year of free credit monitoring; visit creditmonitoring.target.com for details. Ultimately everything in life has risks. It is important to be smart about protecting the security of your information but I, for one, am not about to stop using my credit card. I have another trip in mind, after all.

Dane County

Seasonal changes could close parks

With the warmer weather prediction for later this week, the Dane County Parks Department is advising county park patrons that some county parks may be temporarily closed during the next several weeks. County parks director Darren Marsh said in a news release the warmer weather will start to bring out ground frost, making park lands and some facilities susceptible to damage due to the soft ground. Vehicle traffic and pedestrian use in certain parks may cause considerable damage to roadways, turf areas and trail surfaces, the release said. Over the next several weeks visitors may find some park gates and facilities closed. The department asked that patrons stay on surfaced pathways and roads. If we can reduce the damages at this time of year, it reduces our maintenance costs and allows us to provide betterservices through the rest of the year, Marsh said. After a few spring rains and drying winds the ground will firm up and parks will re-open. Marsh also said some parks could have temporary closings for prescribed burns. Were going to need flexibility to burn when conditions are favorable, Marsh said. This may cause an inconvenience for some patrons, especially at sites like Prairie Moraine County Park, the countys largest dog park, and other sites that have a high number of daily visitors.

Badger Prairie County Park has another great dog park just a couple miles away. The county is looking for volunteers particularly those with land management and wild land burn backgrounds - to help manage the burns. If patrons have questions regarding a closed park or facility, they should contact the Dane County Parks Office at224-3730 or visit countyofdane.com/lwrd/ parks/.

OWI: 14 agencies involved with enforcement this year

Continued from page 1 and found that arrests decreased as they used them more. The idea of the patrols, he has said in multiple interviews with the Verona Press, is not to catch drunken drivers so much as prevent them. The program is paid for by a state grant, which covers overtime expenses of up to $30,000 and also paid for some reflective signs the first year. (Verona also uses a large lighted board to broadcast the patrol as people drive into the city on East Verona Avenue). Originally, Furseth had hoped to grow the program from five agencies and one patrol each in the first year to two or more in the second and successive years, but hes found that paperwork and getting the timing right can be complicated. The second year he had a head start on the grant, which runs from Oct. 1 to Sept. 30, but could not get the first patrol going until June because departments realized there could be complications if officers for other agencies wrote tickets for local municipal courts or needed formal directions from a supervisor from a different police department. That led to a lengthy process of working out legal language and getting multiple municipalities to agree on it. And this year, with 14 agencies involved, that translates to 11 deployments already (none for UW, WSP or Capitol Police). Its become complicated enough that it so far just works out better to do one deployment per agency, Furseth told the Press. Right now dont see it changing, he said. This years patrol in Verona should bring 13 additional officers here, plus several Verona officers and a supervisor, all dedicated solely to putting on a display to make people think twice before driving impaired. Even though that number alone is more than enough to saturate the small towns that are the bulk of the participants, some cities choose to have even more of their own officers add to the patrols or extend the hours. Verona police Sgt. Matt Dart, who coordinates the local patrol, told the Verona Press on Tuesday he plans to have every one of the departments eight vehicles in use that night, including the ones that are not fully marked. Officers will cruise the main roads and make frequent contacts, or stops, while reflective signs alert drivers that theyre being watched. Anyone who was driving in Verona last Sept. 28 saw they couldnt go more than a minute or two without seeing a police car. And yet, while that patrol yielded many stops, there was not one arrest. And that is just fine with police, who are often making stops that are more friendly than confrontational. Its a popular night

for guys to work, Dart explained. Its a great program, its got a positive influence on the community. The Common Council has been supportive of the effort and police have reported no downside to participation. Other agencies participating in the patrol are: DeForest, Stoughton, Town of Madison, Oregon, City of Madison, Sun Prairie, Shorewood Hills, Cottage Grove, Maple Bluff, McFarland, and assistance from UW-Madison Police, Capitol Police, and the Wisconsin State Patrol.

Hearts and Minds The word vulnerable comes from the Latin word vulner, meaning wound. All of us are vulnerable, because we are capable of being wounded. We can obviously be wounded by accidents or illnesses, but also by words and even by the expression on someones face. Its even possible to be wounded by someone not speaking to us or not looking at us, which wounds us on account of them not recognizing us. These physical and emotional vulnerabilities make us feel weak and perhaps needy, and ironically, the best way to overcome them is to admit them and to reach out to others by admitting our vulnerability. But, we are also spiritually vulnerable, a result of the fact that we have all sinned, and will continue to sin, in disobedience to Gods will. We are, in short, wretched creatures in need of Gods mercy. How uncertain you are of receiving Gods mercy is a measure of your ultimate vulnerability. We are like convicted criminals seated at a lavish banquet in the Kings presence, and we really dont know whether we will be pardoned or executed at the end of the meal. We certainly dont deserve to be pardoned, we are guilty after all, but by going to God with love in our heart and admitting our sins we find that our spiritual vulnerability is diminished. Christopher Simon via Metro News Service I acknowledged my sin to you,and I did not cover my iniquity;I said, I will confess my transgressions to the Lord, and you forgave the iniquity of my sin. Psalm 32:5

Wainwrights change of direction leads him, Badgers to the Final Four

Plotting his own course

a low level staff position, which allows people interested in college athletics, especially coaching, to get their foot in the door. Following that, Wainwright was hired as director of basketball operations, following coach Ryans son Will and Joe Robinson. Wainwright has held that position for the past four years. The best way Ive tried to describe the position to people Im almost a mini-athletic director for mens basketball here, Wainwright said. Im in charge of the budget, travel (planes, buses, meals, hotels, practices, shoot-arounds on the road), the team calendar each month, working with the assistants and strength coach on when the team practices, eats and lifts. All of those administrative duties that fall into an athletic program, thats my job to be on top of and organize so that everybody else can focus on their jobs whether its coaches or the student-athletes. Wainwright and the rest of the team head to north Texas on Wednesday to prepare for the Badgers 7:49 p.m. Final Four game Saturday inside AT&T Stadium against Kentucky.

Luke Wainwright, a 2004 graduate of Verona Area High School, holds the West Regional Champion trophy as the UW-Madison mens basketball team boards its plane following a 64-63 overtime victory against Arizona last week. Wainwright has spent the past eight seasons helping the program, including the past four seasons as director of basketball operations.

The Verona Area High School girls soccer team started the season with a 2-0 win over Madison Edgewood Tuesday at Reddan Soccer Park. Head coach Jen Faulkner could not be reached in time for comment before the Verona Press Tuesday deadline. Sophomore Ellery Roark and junior Teeghan Tvedt each scored a goal. Senior Madison Westfall picked up seven saves to preserve the shutout. Roark scored in the 11th minute, while Tvedt put the game away with a goal in the 67th minute. Verona continues the season at 4;30 p.m. Friday in the Muskego High School invite. The invitational continues Saturday with games beginning at 10 a.m. The Wildcats conclude the week at 7 p.m. Tuesday at Oregon High School. Verona opens up the Big Eight Conference season at 7 p.m. Thursday, April 17, at Beloit Memorial High School.

Team success

Verona Area High School sports fans watching the University of Wisconsin mens basketball teams thrilling 64-63 overtime victory Saturday against No. 1 seeded Arizona may have seen a familiar face. Shortly before UW head coach Bo Ryan climbed up the ladder to ceremoniously cut the final piece of the net inside the Honda Center in Anaheim, there was former VAHS threesport standout Luke Wainwright. Working the past eight seasons with the program, Wainwright spent three years as a student manager before graduating and spending another year as a program assistant

Though he had thoughts and feelings of his own about how far this seasons team could go in the NCAA tournament, Wainwright said, You have small conversations throughout the season while you are watching practice, but we never sat down together and had that moment where we said, We got something really special here. Though nothing was overtly said aloud, opening the season on a 16-game winning streak and eventually earning a No. 2 seed for the Big Ten tournament, everybody kind of picked up on those things on their own, he said.

Following the teams win Saturday, Wainwright said it was all still a little surreal on Monday. In my position, I really have to make sure everything is set in the moment, but also think a step or two ahead whether its meals, buses or flights home, he said. Theres been a few moments since the game where the emotions start to come over you a little, but I really havent had an opportunity to step back, relax, understand and take in everything that is going on. Its something in a week, a month or maybe longer, Wainwright will look back upon as an absolutely fantastic experience. I will look back on this and think about how lucky we all were to have made it to the Final Four and experience something a lot of people, a lot of coaches and a lot teams out there havent experienced and may never do so, he said.

Wildcats battle blustery conditions, feisty Middleton team in season debut

Verona lead-off hitter Heather Rudnicki reached base in all five of her plate appearances Tuesday, stole two bases, scored twice and drove in two runs. It was good enough to help the Wildcats open the Big Eight Conference season with a 10-7 victory at Middletons Orchid Height Park. Not bad for a player who only began hitting from the left side

part time a year ago. We began a project with Heather last year to get her on the leftside and take advantage of her speed, Wildcats head coach Todd Anderson said. She worked hard all winter to perfect that. Despite building a 10-3 lead through four innings, the Wildcats saw Middleton claw back two within three runs in the bottom of the sixth. Cardinal center fielder Darby Raffel bunted up the first

baseline to plate the first of three runs in the inning. First baseman Bea Kealy fielded the ball, but no one was covering the bag. An RBI single by Ashley Brooks and a throwing error by Verona shortstop Kori Keyes led to the other two runs. The Wildcats had a chance to 10-run Middleton in the sixth, but were unable to push a run across the plate after Emma Ray Photos by Jeremy Jones walked, Alyssa Erdman walked and Shannon Whitmus singled to Heather Rudnicki (above) slides into second base Tuesday as the ball gets away

Wainwright: Spent the past

eight seasons working at UW
Continued from page 9 lucky few and no one can ever take this experience from us. of selfishly or personally, about my continuing playing career. I hadnt really thought beyond that yet. Over the course of his first two years at Edgewood, Wainwright said the most enjoyable part of his day didnt come on the hardwood but rather on the gridiron of his alma mater. By the end of his sophomore year something was starting to click. This was something I really took a lot of pleasure in, Wainwright said. Seeing them take a teaching point and getting better day after day that was really something that motivated me to come back everyday and continue to try and get better at the craft of coaching.

Earthquake

One experience he might like to forget was the night before UW shocked Arizona when a magnitude 5.1 earthquake rocked the Los Angles area. We definitely felt it (at ground level), said Wainwright, who was across the street from the team hotel at the time of the earthquake last Friday. Being from Wisconsin and never experiencing anything like an earthquake, it took him a little while to figure out what was going on. Meanwhile, he said there wasnt really too much of a reaction inside the restaurant. That kind of surprised as after about five seconds or so, I realized what was going on, he said. I was looking to see what all the locals were doing. Were they going to run outside or whatever, but nobody really moved. The biggest reaction came after everything was done and the shaking had ceased. People started talking about it, hopping on their phones and trying to figure out what it registered on the Richter scale. It was definitely an interesting experience. After getting back to the hotel, Wainwright said he heard some stories from the coaching staff and players who were up as high as the 19th floor in the hotel.

Another medal haul

Verona Area High School sophomore Beata (Elizabeth) Nelson is already a nationally-ranked swimmer for her age group and a five-time state champion. Earlier last month over spring break, Nelson continued to add to her medal haul at the NCSA Jr. National meet in Orlando. Nelson swam in eight individual events at the meet held March 18-22, winning the 50 backstroke in 24.02 seconds. She added secondplace finishes in the 200 individual medley (1:57.88), 100 butterfly (52.49), 100 back (52.03) and the 50 fly (24.31). Competing amongst several big name swimmers, Nelson added medals in the 50 free and 200 back, taking third in 22.56 and 1:55.74, respectively. She also finished ninth in 100 free (49.71).

Something clicked

Wainwright played two years of college basketball at Edgewood College before transferring to UW following his sophomore year. It was a decision that didnt come lightly for the then 20-year-old. The courts had been a huge part of my life up to that point, he said. I had to figure out for myself, where in my mind did I see myself down the road and what was going to be the better environment for me to potentially get there? Was it going to be finishing up my last two years of Division III basketball or taking a risk and transferring over (to UW), trying to get a job with the team and working my way up? Wainwright said he gathered plenty of information before making his final decision, getting input from his father, who was a teacher and coach, as well as the likes of his former VAHS football coach Dave Richardson. It was Richardson, who after all had approached Wainwright shortly before his graduation from Verona and offered a volunteer position that in part changed everything. Up to that point, Wainwright said he really had no more coaching experience than a summer camp or two. I enjoyed, but I wouldnt say it clicked at that point, he said. For me at that age as an athlete, I was still thinking about, kind

Working his way up to director of basketball operations certainly wasnt a position Wainwright, a history major, jumped into without a few bumps along the way. I struggled at first, he said. In college your budget consists of, can I get something to eat? Can I pay rent? I wasnt ahead of the game in the terms of the finances, thats for sure. It was something he learned quickly through experience, however. While his history degree didnt necessarily help him out with forecasting a budget, there were a lot of other skills that he picked up on coaching football at Verona or just being a manager and program assistant in the office at UW. I was very observant of the two guys before me, trying to get an idea of what they did and what was expected of them, Wainwright said. What did they need to know and how did they go about their business when handling all of their responsibilities?

Schmid grapples to sixth at Nationals

Verona Area High School junior Eric Schmid did more than just finish runnerup at the WIAA state tournament this year. He also added a sixth place on March 30 in the National High School Coaches Association National Wrestling Championships in Virginia Beach, Va. Schmid picked up six wins, including two by pin, en route to the podium. He fell 12-5 in his fifth-place match to Rodolfo Guillen (Ga.), but he defeated Joshua Anderson (Utah), Daniel Murphy (N.Y.), Zane Knight (N.C.), Bailey Hicks (Va.), Lucas McKeever (N.Y.) and Gavin Murray (N.J.). Schmid pinned Hicks in 2 minutes and got a fall over Knight in 30 seconds. He also had a 13-1 major decision over Murphy. Schmids other wins were decisions over Anderson 4-2, McKeever 7-2 and

Murray 10-6. Schmids other losses were a 6-3 decision against Jake Adcock (Ga.) and a 15-0 technical fall against Thomas Dutton (N.Y.). Neal Richards (Va.) defeated Lorenzo De La Riva (Calif.) 6-3 in the finals, while Dutton knocked off Ralphy Tovar (Calif.) with a pin in 33 seconds for third. Adcock took seventh with a 4-2 win over Murray.

Nettles-Bey: She was speechless when first meeting James

Continued from page 9 emotions to the situation, she said in an ESPN SportsCenter phone interview. Im still in shock and amazed with what happened. to Sports Illustrated, to USA Today and even to a column by ESPNs Rick Reilly, urging James to meet Nettles-Bey. Im thinking, Why not go to Disney World? or why not do something way cooler, James said in an interview with Fox Sports Wisconsin. Why me? Its an unbelievable thing for her, and Im happy Im in a position to fulfill someones dream. Nettles-Bey is no longer the leading scorer she was before being diagnosed, having averaged 4.3 points per game this past season, but she still led the Wildcats in assists and helped the team to a 20-3 record overall. That determination is something James said was a part of a very unique trait. I didnt need to meet her to understand and know how strong she was, James said to Fox Sports Wisconsin. But its great to be around her and see her enthusiasm even with what shes dealing with. Its like she doesnt even have it. Its not going to stop her. attention, Nettles-Bey said she still didnt think she would meet James. She said she thought he would just wave at her during the game. But not only did she meet her idol, she was able to meet the whole team before they came out on the floor for warm-ups. Entering the court, Nettles-Bey highfived fans and then was able to do something she really never expected shoot jumpers with James. Nettles-Bey told reporters James said she couldnt leave the court until she hit one, which she called a little pressuring, but she added, It was fun, though. Nettles-Bey was then able to stand by James during the national anthem. After the game, James gave Nettles-Bey a signed jersey and shoes that she said she will frame. He has always been my idol and stuff, but now, I see him more of an idol outside of basketball now, Nettles-Bey said on SportsCenter. Just by his gestures and efforts to make it so special for me, all he put into it.

While Wainwright said hed love to have a program of his own one day, at what level is something thats up for debate. If you would have asked me when I was 19 or 20 years old, I probably would have said without a doubt Division I mens basketball, he said. As hes gotten older, though, those priorities have shifted a bit. The realty is that my life and priorities are changing, he said. I got married last summer and wed like to start a family. Those types of thoughts go through your mind when you start making life-long decisions about your career. Regardless of at what level, the desire of one day being in charge of his own program is still there for Wainwright. The same thoughts, feelings and emotions that went through me everyday that I went back to help out the Verona football team I want to get that feeling back, he said. On a dayto-day basis, thats something I really look forward to getting back in my life.

Nettles-Bey starred two years ago as a sophomore for the Madison West girls basketball team and was a highly anticipated transfer to Verona last year. But her life was turned upside-down last summer when she was diagnosed with stage 4 rhabdomyosarcoma. Instead of sitting out the season like doctors advised, Nettles-Bey played while going through chemotherapy and other cancer treatments, often checking out of the hospital, going to a game and checking back in. But she never complained and battled through fatigue brought on by the treatments. That inspirational story not only brought an entire community together but it also spurred national media to pick up the story when her dream to meet James led to a Twitter hashtag: #LeBron MeetEbony. The story spread throughout the state,

Softball: Wildcats hang on against Middleton

Continued from page 9 load the bases with one out. While the Big Eight has been dominated by the likes of Verona, Sun Prairie and Madison East, Middleton coach Cherie Hellenbrand hopes her team can be in the hunt this season. I cant control what other teams in the conference do, but what I know is that we are going to come out and work as hard as we possibly can, Hellenbrand said. Verona senior pitcher Emma Ray gave up 10 hits, allowed five earned runs and struck out nine in the complete game effort. She walked three with only one coming after the first inning. Emma didnt have everything she wanted to have, but she did use what she did have, Anderson said. Ray helped her cause at the plate, driving in three runs. Still the Wildcats watched Middleton take a 3-1 lead in the home half of the first inning. After striking out the Cardinal lead-off hitter, Ray walked the next two batters before Katie Fermanich ripped a two-run double. Shelby Ballweg followed with an RBI single past Keyes. Nicole Neitzel drew Verona even four hitters into the second inning, lacing a two-run double to center field. Two hitters later, Rudnicki put the Wildcats ahead for good, smacking a two-run triple. I think we learned something about what we need to do to get ready for the next game, Anderson said. To us, its the same whether its the first game or the 15th were always learning.

A Verona native was one of six finalists in a business-pitch competition at UW-Platteville in February. The schools Pioneer Academic Center for Community Engagement held its fourth annual Elevator Pitch Competition Feb. 18, where Ashley Luginbuhl of Verona was one of six finalists among 28 entrants. The competition gave students two minutes to convince a panel about the value of their business idea. After the competition, students met with a coach, who gave them feedback on their idea. Luginbuhl is a business administration major at the school.

UW research grant honors Verona teen

Lilys Fund for Epilepsy Research announced the creation of competitive Grace Grants at its annual luau fundraiser in December in honor of a Verona teen. While continuing to fund research fellowships at UW-Madisons School of Medicine and Public Health, Madisonbased Lilys Fund volunteers designed the grant program to spark innovative early-stage epilepsy research. The new grant is named in honor of Verona teen, Grace Penwell, who lives with Dravet Syndrome, a severe form of epilepsy. After having brain surgery performed in the 5th grade, doctors diagnosed Grace with Dravet Syndrome, a disease that affects language and motor skills. She began having seizures at 9 months old, but was not diagnosed with epilepsy until the age of 2. Now a freshman at Verona Area High School, Grace continues to have massive seizures at least once a week, but does her best to support others with her same disease by playing a big role in Lilys Fund. The grant, awarded in December, may help scientists predict the

pathways of seizures and how they move across the brain, which would represent a major breakthrough in epilepsy research. Colleen Penwell, Graces mother, said their family is inspired by the outpouring of support for Lilys Fund and the annual luau. To think that hundreds of volunteers and supporters are raising funds that support research right here at UW-Madison is amazing, she said. We are humbled by the Grace Grants program and excited for what the research might mean for the one in 26 people who live with epilepsy. University of Wisconsin researchers pioneered the use of high-density electroencephalography (HDEEG) technology to study sleep patterns and the effects of meditation. With support from a local grassroots organization, Lilys Fund for Epilepsy Research, UWMadison researchers will now evaluate how this advanced technology might benefit people with epilepsy.

Filling the hole

City of Verona Public Works employees took advantage of the short-lived warmer weather Thursday, March 20, to fix a water main that had broken in late February. The broken main had caused a 3-foot-deep sinkhole on North Main Street near Badger Ridge Middle School, which damaged the front end of one car at the time. The water main break from the previous weekend had eroded the subsurface, city streets superintendent Greg Denner said in February.
