A pivotal game in the Big 8 Conference saw Middleton run away with a convincing win in the second half. The Cardinals topped Madison Memorial 42-18 at Breitenbach Stadium. The Cardinals improved to 6-1 and dropped the Spartans to 5-3 on the season.

Adding to the fun was the homecoming festivities this weekend at Middleton High School

Memorial's Joe Ferguson tried to spoil the party early with a nice pump fake, setting up a 47-yard touchdown pass to Jamar Morris. That put the Spartans up 6-0 in the first quarter.
