Middleton boys hockey dominated Madison Memorial 9-1 on Friday night, but one of the goals scored by Middleton is getting a bit more attention than the others.

That goal has found its way on YouTube. Middleton senior Todd Koritzinsky scored on what's commonly called a "Michigan" goal. The play is reminiscent of a score in a college championship game years ago by a Michigan player.
