Tonight, A Lightning Strike

He’s tired. He thought he was done, with the drugs. The last time is always the worst, though.

// My OC Claude’s introductory piece! It’s been years since I wrote with OC’s, let alone shared them, so I’m definitely nervous. Let me know what you think!

Words: 1080

Warnings: Contains graphic description of drug use, and an overdose, and might be triggering. Please use discretion and stay safe.

-----

He thinks he can hear the moon.

It should have been obvious he was out of his mind, thinking the bright thing in the sky was giving him directions home. A childish fantasy coming to the surface of his mind, that the moon was following him or moving of its own sentient accord. It must have held some truth, because before he knew it, there was a familiar looking welcome mat below his feet and his fingers were pushing a button to the tune of twinkle-twinkle little star.

Time skips, it feels like hours, and there's this face staring at him with bright blue eyes and he's falling. A voice shouts at him through a haze of tilting stars, and he can feel the tingly, warm high on the planes of his face, its so fucking good, god, he really found the golden recipe this time, whatever he took seemed like it was really, really good.

Except, now there was this noise cutting through the bliss.

"Claude, Claude! Listen to me," It was right next to his ear, and- why was it so loud? "What did you take?"

His buzz, it's fading. Nausea sets into his stomach and he laughs, head rolling around his shoulders like it was sixty pounds. A cold hand holds his cheeks with gossamer touch, whatever drugs in his system making it feel like lidocaine to the achiness spreading across his skin.

"Listen Claude, you need to focus. For me, please," It's hurried, the hands fluttering down his arms. "God, what did you do?"

He swats the hands away, in what feels like slow motion, "'M... 'm focused!" He laughs again, a bubbling giggle falling from his lips. "I sss... I swear!" He sits up, and gathers a handful of carpet in his fists to stay upright, like roots of a tree cling to grass in a storm.

"This is not funny, Claude! It's not- not okay." The voice is mad, at him now, and he hates when people are upset with him.

His emotions switch so fast it hurts. There's a wetness on his cheeks, now, tears wet and hot dripping onto his button-up, and it's too hot in the room. It feels like the center of the earth.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry," He's shaking his head, pulls on the woven fibers. "I'm sorry, I'm s-so sorry."

In one moment, it all explodes. It's the moment before a lightning strike, electricity surging from his fingertips to his ears, white hot fire lighting his nerves up like a Christmas tree. It's blinding, stuttering images of faces and the night sky fill his vision and suddenly, he's not on his tattered old couch but in the burning bush high above the earth on Mount Horeb.

Except for this time, he is the fire.

He thinks he must have been moved, because there was freezing tile under his ass and florescent lights burning his eyes. The air smelled like potpourri.

"Claude," It's soft, stuttered, and full of tears, "I know you're strong. I know you are, but, this is really.... bad," He can vaguely feel a pressure on his shoulder, "You're gonna be fine, alright, I- I called an ambulance."

There's a weird silence behind the words, filled with a buzz inaudible to their ears, and he feels like he can't move.

"It'll be fine. I know-- I know you don't like hospitals, but your eyes are- god, I don't even know if you can hear me."

"Please be okay." It's so quiet he thinks it isn't there, the soft exhalation of breath against his ear the only thing that makes it real. Maybe he shivers, maybe it sets his nerves on fire in a different way than before, he doesn't know.

He tries to nod. He really does. The voice sounds so sad, and so scared, he doesn't want to be the source of that pain. But the drugs in his system have frozen his muscles and it's like he's free from obligation.

"I just can't watch this anymore. You can't keep this up, you're going to end up dead, or dying." Nicholas chokes on a sob, "Like you are right now."

He can barely think, thoughts floating off into nothing the second they come to him. It's really kind of funny, they look like shooting stars.

All of a sudden, there's sirens and people prodding at his arms, at his chest, and he's floating out the door and down their hallway and over the stairs, weird people asking him questions he can't dream of answering.

------

"They had to pump your stomach."

It's quiet. And mad. And still kind of... hazy.

He can see the way Nick's eyes trail down his arms, his inner elbow catching his gaze. Claude doesn't even have to look, he knows there's bruised scabs already forming over the old ones, and he doesn't even make to hide them; they've already been studied, he knows.

"Is that why I'm so hungry?" He's tired, and his voice is scratchy and it hurts. He really isn't hungry, his stomach feels nauseous and just... like utter shit.

"It's not funny." Nick snaps. "You fell, when you were walking to the bathroom. You were on some kinda mission, man."

"Is that why my head feels like those watermelons people put rubber bands around?" He reaches up to feel the bandages in his hair. "Shit."

A beat. "They want me to talk to you about, some place." He says. "I know you don't want to. But... you have to get clean."

"I- NO! No, I'm-"

"Please listen!" He chokes out, "You have to. For me. For the team,"

He was scrambling. It felt like the bed beneath him was swallowing his limbs, the feeling of red hot cuffs around his wrists so tight they leave bruises.

Goddamn it, the tears started. They were hot down his cheeks as he pled, "I can't, I-I promise I'll get clean, I promise, I promise, you don- don't know what they did to me in-in there." Flashes of memories that he hadn't seen in years assault his mind, and he really, really can't do that. Go back.

He found himself enveloped in a tight hug, as tight as it could be with the wires sticking out from his body.

"Okay... okay, we won't. We'll figure something out." It melted into his chest and settled, somewhere deep and private and scared.

He pulled in a shaky breath. God, what had he done last night?

"We always do."

2021 WIAA state boys golf tournament: Rob Hernandez's Division 1 sectional preview, predictions | WIAA Boys

New Post has been published on https://tattlepress.com/golf/2021-wiaa-state-boys-golf-tournament-rob-hernandezs-division-1-sectional-preview-predictions-wiaa-boys/

2021 WIAA state boys golf tournament: Rob Hernandez's Division 1 sectional preview, predictions | WIAA Boys

Wisconsin.Golf’s Rob Hernandez sizes up the WIAA Division 1 boys sectional golf tournaments being contested across the state this week. The top two teams in each sectional advance to next week’s state tournament, along with the top three golfers not on those teams. The Division 1 state championships are scheduled for June 14-15 at Wild Rock Golf Club.

WAUSAU EAST SECTIONAL

TEAM QUALIFIERS REGIONAL SCORE STATE BERTHS LAST Antigo 355 3 1985 D.C. Everest (Schofield) 337 4 1991 Eau Claire Memorial 290 49 2019 Hudson 299 3 2019 New Richmond 311 22 2001 River Falls 305 16 2018 Stevens Point 338 27 2016 Wausau West 352 4 2007 INDIVIDUAL QUALIFIERS REGIONAL SCORE Jaxon Bulgrin, Marshfield 85 Carter Cygan, Wausau East 79 Jamin Dufree, Superior 79 Brett Elkin, Chippewa Falls 71 Koldyn Gechas, Rhinelander 81 Andrew Henrichs, Rhinelander 89 Matt Nault, Superior 77 Andrew Rude, Superior 77

When, where: 9 a.m. Tuesday at Greenwood Hills CC-Wausau, par 72.

That was then (in 2019): Hudson senior Charley Chase and sophomore Bennett Swavely shot matching 76s at New Richmond Golf Course as the Raiders shot 316 and edged Big Rivers Conference rival Eau Claire Memorial (320) to win the 2019 WIAA Division 1 New Richmond sectional. New Richmond sophomore Owen Covey shot 71 to slip past eventual state champion Russell Dettmering of Merrill by one shot for medalist honors. Stevens Point senior Evan Thomas joined Covey and Dettmering in qualifying for the state tournament at University Ridge GC in Madison. Covey and Swavely were the top performers among golfers currently competing in the 2021 high school season.

This is now (in 2021): There is nothing like a 290 to get people’s attention and that’s exactly what Eau Claire Memorial did last week in winning the WIAA Division 1 Superior regional at Nemadji GC in Superior. Freshman Will Schlitz shot 4-under-par 68, one of just three sub-70 rounds in the state, to edge Hudson senior Bennett Swavely, a University of Minnesota recruit, by one shot for medalist honors as the Old Abes outscored Hudson 290-299 for the team title. History would suggest that it will be a much different story on the scoreboard at Greenwood Hills, which last played host to a sectional in 2011 when Hudson (323) knocked off Superior (336) and Eau Claire North (339) for the team title. Memorial, the Big Rivers Conference champion, has a freshman (Schlitz) and two sophomores (Ben Christensen and Parker Etzel), for whom this sectional will be their first. Could that open the door for Hudson, which has three seniors in its starting five with one of them a tournament veteran in Swavely. Much like Memorial and Hudson dueled in the Big Rivers, Stevens Point and Wausau West went back-and-forth in finishing 1-2 in the Wisconsin Valley Conference only to finish second and third, respectively, behind D.C. Everest (Schofield) at the Everest regional at Wausau CC. On paper, none of the three WVC favorites have the scoring punch of Eau Claire Memorial and Hudson, but that may not be as important if the sectional plays out the way Leg 5 of the WVC tournament series did May 14, when Stevens Point (346) outlasted Wausau West (348) and D.C. Everest (352) for team honors in a high-scoring affair on the challenging Greenwood Hills layout.

Projected state team qualifiers: Hudson, Eau Claire Memorial.

Projected state individual qualifiers: Logan Pechinski, Stevens Point; Carter Cygan, Wausau East; Owen Covey, New Richmond.

NOTRE DAME (GREEN BAY) SECTIONAL

TEAM QUALIFIERS REGIONAL SCORE STATE BERTHS LAST Appleton North 345 3 2001 Appleton West 352 4 2003 Ashwaubenon 330 3 2008 Bay Port 342 7 2019 De Pere 316 6 2015 Green Bay Preble 340 15 2010 Notre Dame (Green Bay) 317 15 2018 West De Pere 325 3 2004 INDIVIDUAL QUALIFIERS REGIONAL SCORE Aiden Cudney, Kimberly 82 Sam Knapp, Kaukauna 87 Kaden Marcell, Shawano 81 Jake Prestigiacomo, Appleton East 87 Quinn Process, Pulaski 81 Connor Schaefer, Hortonville 89 Lucas te Plate, Shawano 86 Aaron Tonn, Pulaski 86

When, where: 9 a.m. Wednesday at Thornberry Creek at Oneida GC, par 72.

That was then (in 2019): Kaukauna’s dynamic senior duo of Tyler Cleaves (74) and Brock Hlinak (75) paved the way, but fellow seniors Zachary Klingseisen (76) and Reis Schweiner (77) weren’t too shabby, either, as the Galloping Ghosts fired a 302 and rolled to the Notre Dame (Green Bay) sectional at Thornberry Creek at Oneida GC. Bay Port (319) edged host Notre Dame (Green Bay) by one shot for the second state berth behind junior Preston Cedergren, who shared medalist honors with Appleton East senior Ben Gilkay and Cleaves. Gilkay, Green Bay Preble senior Cole Hanke (75) and Green Bay Southwest senior Trent Thomas (75) earned the individual state tournament berths. Appleton West sophomore Austin Georger, who lost to birdies from Hanke and Thomas on the second playoff hole for the last two berths, shot 75 and was the top finisher among current high school golfers.

This is now (in 2021): It must be the WIAA postseason because sectional host Notre Dame (Green Bay) turned in one of its finest performances of the season last week in winning the Ashwaubenon regional at Brown County GC in Oneida. Junior Ryan Darling had a lot to do with that, firing a 1-under 71 to earn medalist honors by seven strokes and help the Tritons (317) roll past Fox River Classic Conference rival Ashwaubenon (330) for the title. Lost, perhaps, in Darling’s work up front was the fact Notre Dame had all five golfers shoot 85 or better on a tough layout. Two years ago Notre Dame packed its four scoring golfers between 78 and 84 only to fall one shot shy of Bay Port in its bid for a 16th state tournament berth. This year, De Pere figures to be the team the Tritons and everyone else will be chasing. The FRCC overall champion Redbirds looked strong at its own regional at Ledgeview GC in De Pere with seniors Ben Busick (78) and Grady Coppo (79), junior Sam Mehlberg (79) and sophomore Jack Weisenberger (80) setting a tone that will be tough to beat if they can replicate that balance at Thornberry Creek. Lurking out there, too, is Fox Valley Association champion Appleton North, which won the FVA Championship with a 327 but finished third (345) at the De Pere regional.

Projected state team qualifiers: Notre Dame (Green Bay), De Pere.

Projected state individual qualifiers: Austin Georger, Appleton West; Max Reis, West De Pere; Aiden Cudney, Kimberly.

MADISON MEMORIAL SECTIONAL

TEAM QUALIFIERS REGIONAL SCORE STATE BERTHS LAST Holmen 331 6 2019 Madison Memorial 321 17 2017 Middleton 310 21 2019 Onalaska 327 21 2013 Reedsburg 358 7 2008 Tomah 333 4 1983 Verona 323 1 2018 Waunakee 309 1 2017 INDIVIDUAL QUALIFIERS REGIONAL SCORE Dominick Fetterer, Wisconsin Rapids 88 Charlie Gibbs, Baraboo 84 Finn Jackson, Madison West 88 Dane Kubisiak, Wisconsin Rapids 88 Sonny Lombardo, Mount Horeb 88 Kaleb Lycke, La Crosse Central/Logan 83 Jack Morgan, Madison West 85 Brandt Wilson, Sauk Prairie 89

When, where: 9 a.m. Monday at Blackhawk CC-Madison, par 72.

That was then (in 2019): Historically a mix of Madison- and La Crosse-area teams, this sectional welcomed Wisconsin Rapids to the mix for the first time and went to the Ridges GC in Wisconsin Rapids to determine state qualifiers. The results, however, looked a lot like those when the sectional is played in Madison or La Crosse. Four Middleton golfers broke 80, led by junior Kip Sullivan (75), as the Cardinals shot 306 and topped Holmen by five shots for the team title. Mount Horeb’s Kasen Fager (72) earned medalist honors by two strokes over Verona senior Austin Gaby. They joined Sparta junior Austin Erickson (76) in advancing to the state tournament as individuals. Middleton sophomore Jacob Beckman (79) tied for 10th and was the top finisher among golfers still competing at the high school level in 2021.

This is now (in 2021): Middleton, which finished second to Milwaukee Marquette at the 2019 WIAA Division 1 state championship, was reminded last week that it’s as tough to get to the state tournament out of this sectional as it is to contend once there. The Cardinals shot 310 at their own regional last week at Pleasant View GC, but finished second to Waunakee (309), which boasted the medalist in junior Max Brud (73) and had all five golfers break 85. Middleton’s four scoring golfers ranged from 75 to 80 with a lineup that had just one senior (University of Wisconsin recruit Jacob Beckman) in it. While they would appear to be the teams to beat, Onalaska’s winning 327 at its own regional came on a demanding La Crosse CC and will no doubt send the Hilltoppers into the sectional with confidence. However, qualifiers from both regionals will find a much different challenge at Blackhawk CC, a tight layout with fast greens that is playing host to a boys sectional for the first time in recent memory. When the course held a Division 1 regional in 2017, Middleton won with a 311, but none of the other schools in the eight-team field broke 325 and only one golfer bettered 76. To further muddy the waters, three schools ranked in the top 10 — No. 4 Middleton, No. 8 Waunakee and No. 9 Madison Memorial — are in the field as are the top two teams also receiving votes (Verona and Holmen).

Projected state team qualifiers: Middleton, Madison Memorial.

Projected state individual qualifiers: Will Meganck, Waunakee; Hunter Neumann, Tomah; Sam Evenson, Holmen.

PLYMOUTH SECTIONAL

TEAM QUALIFIERS REGIONAL SCORE STATE BERTHS LAST Arrowhead (Hartland) 302 30 2019 Fond du Lac 345 39 2019 Hartford 340 12 2003 Manitowoc 341 21 2007 Neenah 344 10 2014 Plymouth 346 15 2017 Sheboygan North 307 27 2018 Slinger 321 5 2014 INDIVIDUAL QUALIFIERS REGIONAL SCORE Owen Beumler, Sheboygan South 89 Isaac Geffers, Oshkosh North 88 Joseph Held, West Bend West 88 Tristan Helgeson, West Bend West 89 Nic Kolar, Sheboygan South 89 Boden Memmel, West Bend East 90 Dakota Rezachek, Two Rivers/Mishicot 89 Evan Spaeth, West Bend West 86

When, where: 9 a.m. Wednesday at Quit-Qui-Oc GC-Elkhart Lake, par 71.

That was then (in 2019): Two-time defending WIAA Division 1 state champion Piercen Hunt shot 70 at Washington County GC in Hartford as Arrowhead (Hartland) shot 308 and edged Fond du Lac by four shots for the team title at the WIAA Division 1 Hartford regional. Beaver Dam senior Zak Kulka, a UW-Green Bay recruit, finished second with a 72 and joined Plymouth senior Charlie Aschenbach (74) and De Pere senior Cole Griffin (76) in qualifying for the state tournament individually. Slinger sophomore Addison Raimer and West De Pere freshman Max Reis shot matching 80s and were the top finishers among those golfers who are still competing during the 2021 season.

This is now (in 2021): Sheboygan North moves into this sectional from what this year is the Mequon Homestead sectional and promises to give perennial power and top-ranked Arrowhead (Hartland) a run for the team title. The Golden Raiders are coming off of a Neenah regional championship where sophomore Mason Schmidtke’s state-best 66 fueled their 307 winning score. Overshadowed by Schmidtke’s remarkable round was the fact that all five North golfers, three of them seniors, shot 86 or better. That experience will be critical against Arrowhead and Slinger, whose senior standouts are at the top of their lineups and promise to make the road to Wild Rock GC in Wisconsin Dells difficult for North. Arrowhead seniors Nick Amtmann and Andrew Fickel shared regional medalist honors with 73s at Washington County GC last week as the Warhawks, who also got a 74 from sophomore Bode King, shot 302 to top Slinger by 19 strokes. Raimer, however, is playing some of the best golf of his high school career and has formed a solid nucleus with junior Will Summers and senior Tyson Miller.

Projected state team qualifiers: Arrowhead (Hartland), Sheboygan North.

Projected state individual qualifiers: Addison Raimer, Slinger; Will Summers, Slinger; Wyatt Pfeiffer, Fond du Lac.

JANESVILLE PARKER SECTIONAL

TEAM QUALIFIERS REGIONAL SCORE STATE BERTHS LAST Beloit Memorial 340 28 2013 Fort Atkinson 356 11 2015 Milton 326 1 1987 Monona Grove 346 3 2017 Mukwonago 332 8 2019 Oregon 353 1 2000 Stoughton 358 9 2013 Sun Prairie 351 8 2010 INDIVIDUAL QUALIFIERS REGIONAL SCORE Nolan Ahler, Elkhorn 85 Will Arkin, Madison La Follette 92 Josh Brogren, Elkhorn 85 Ryan Ertel, McFarland 90 Kai Klass, McFarland 91 Wyatt Marshall, Janesville Craig 73 Ethan Prusakeiwicz, DeForest 88 Bryce Sullivan, Janesville Craig 87

When, where: 8 a.m. Tuesday at Janesville Riverside GC, par 72.

That was then (in 2019): Bucknell recruit Blake Wisdom of Lake Geneva Badger shot 71 while teammates Luke Abram (75), Ben Rademaker (77) and TJ Walton (78) also broke 80 as the Badgers (301) pulled out a two-stroke victory at the Mukwonago sectional at Edgewood GC in Big Bend. Mukwonago won a team playoff over Sun Prairie for the second state berth after the two teams tied for second place at 303, leaving the Cardinals’ Mickey Keating (73) to take one of the three state individual berths with Janesville Parker junior Kadin Kleman (73) and Milton senior AJ Gray (75), who won a playoff over Sun Prairie senior Ethan Carrick and Janesville Parker’s Zack Milner for the final spot at University Ridge. Badger’s Abram, who tied for fifth, was the top golfer among those still competing at the high school level in 2021.

This is now (in 2021): As is often the case with a sectional that encompasses areas south of Madison and west of Milwaukee, this sectional couldn’t be more wide open. Milton (326) and Monona Grove (346) come to Janesville Riverside as regional champions, but Mukwonago (332) and Beloit Memorial (340) finished within 14 strokes of Milton at the Mukwonago regional at Edgewood GC in Big Bend and Sun Prairie (351), Oregon (353) and Stoughton (358) finished within 12 shots of MG at the Portage regional at Portage CC. Likewise, only four golfers broke 80 at Mukwonago, led by individual sectional qualifier Wyatt Marshall of Janesville Craig (73), and no one shot lower than 81 at Portage. Beloit Memorial and Monona Grove shot matching 349s to finish T-2 at the Ashenfelder Invitational at Janesville Riverside last month, but history suggests the course is much more forgiving than that so it will likely take a score lower than 320 to advance to the state tournament.

Projected state team qualifiers: Milton, Mukwonago.

Projected state individual qualifiers: Griffin Oberneder, Beloit Memorial; Jacob Frederickson, Monona Grove; Wyatt Marshall, Janesville Craig.

HOMESTEAD (MEQUON) SECTIONAL

TEAM QUALIFIERS REGIONAL SCORE STATE BERTHS LAST Cedarburg 308 4 2016 Germantown 314 2 2010 Hamilton (Sussex) 320 0 NA Hometead (Mequon) 304 31 2019 Kettle Moraine 295 8 2019 Oconomowoc 332 26 2006 Pewaukee 330 5 2012 Waukesha West 329 1 2004 INDIVIDUAL QUALIFIERS REGIONAL SCORE Jake Anderson, Whitefish Bay 82 Collin Barry, Whitefish Bay 81 Ben Hilbelink, Menomonee Falls 72 Peter Hoeppner, Waukesha North 82 Jackson Piacsek, Waukesha North 76 Mason Roanhouse, Waterford 79 Cullen Starker, Whitefish Bay 79 Owen Van Galen, Waukesha South 83

When, where: 9 a.m. Tuesday at North Shore CC-Mequon.

That was then (in 2019): Sophomore Ty Mueller (78) and junior Josh Teplin (80) turned in top-10 finishes as Mequon Homestead shot 322 and survived arguably the toughest sectional venue in the state on the Irish Course at Whistling Straits in Haven with the Sheboygan North sectional championship. Kettle Moraine (330) edged Sheboygan North (333) and Germantown (336) for the second state berth. Sheboygan North seniors Austin Thyes (73) and Max Schmidtke (76) and Waterford junior Josh Koszarek (75) qualified for the state tournament individually. Medalist Ben Pausha of Kettle Moraine (72) was the top finisher among golfers still competing at the high school level in 2021.

This is now (in 2021): Top-ranked Kettle Moraine, which shot 295 in winning the Waukesha South regional, and No. 3 Mequon Homestead headline a field that includes a few teams — Cedarburg, Germantown and Hamilton (Sussex) — capable of keeping the favorites from punching their ticket to the state tournament in Wisconsin Dells. It will take a yeoman’s effort, however. Kettle Moraine’s victory at Morningstar Golfers Club in Waukesha included a 72 from senior Jackson Vinopal, a 73 from freshman Spencer Stuke, a 74 from sophomore Alex Koenig and a 76 from senior Jackson Cain. Pausha, the sectional champion two years ago the last time a WIAA tournament series was held, had his 78 thrown out. Homestead seemed comfortable with the shootout that was its regional at Mee Kwon GC. Mueller’s 71 earned him a share of medalist honors with Germantown’s Collin Thomey and led the way for the Highlanders (304), who got a 75 from sophomore Hunter Thibert and a 77 from senior Christian Sobczak at the back end of the lineup on a day when No. 2 golfer Joe Fricker shot 82 despite a 37 on the back nine. Cedarburg (Nathan Theama), Germantown (Thomey) and Sussex Hamilton (Michael Addie) all have strong No. 1 golfers who won’t be intimidated by a tough sectional venue in North Shore CC, which is the fourth Mequon-area course Homestead has enlisted to host a postseason competition in the last three years.

Projected state team qualifiers: Homestead (Mequon), Kettle Moraine .

Projected state individual qualifiers: Collin Thomey, Germantown; Michael Addie, Hamilton (Sussex); Nathan Theama, Cedarburg .

RACINE CASE SECTIONAL

TEAM QUALIFIERS REGIONAL SCORE STATE BERTHS LAST Franklin 346 5 2019 Kenosha Indian Trail 344 0 NA Marquette (Milwaukee) 304 11 2019 Muskego 334 4 2017 Oak Creek 329 1 2000 Racine Case 343 13 2015 South Milwaukee 432 36 1989 INDIVIDUAL QUALIFIERS REGIONAL SCORE Tyson Baldwin, Kenosha Tremper 87 Egan Bedwell, Milwaukee King 109 Michael Cerny, Racine Horlick 83 Tyler Dahl, Kenosha Tremper 76 Peter Iwanowski, St. Francis/Cudahy 82 Josh Koch, Milwaukee King 96 Alex Krowski, St. Francis/Cudahy 105 Kamden Logan, Kenosha Tremper 91

When, where: 9 a.m. Tuesday at Ives Grove GL-Sturtevant, par 72.

That was then (in 2019): Junior Jack Lutze (70) and seniors Jack Blair (72) and Drew Sagrillo (72) swept the top three spots and freshman Hayden LeMonds (76) finished T-7 as Milwaukee Marquette shot 290 and cruised to a 17-stroke victory over Franklin to win its own sectional at Brown Deer Park GC in Milwaukee. No other school finished within 36 strokes of the top two teams. University of Wisconsin-bound junior Cameron Huss of Kenosha Tremper (76) earned his first WIAA state tournament berth as an individual qualifier along with St. Francis/Cudahy sophomore Peter Iwanowski (78) and Greenfield senior Sam Mendoza (79). Franklin sophomore John Mirsberger (73) finished T-4, the best showing by a golfer still competing in the high school ranks in 2021.

This is now (in 2021): The names may change, but the results remain the same for Milwaukee Marquette, which has won the last two WIAA Division 1 state championships and three of the last four. Senior Riley Simonz (75), junior Sebastian Kasun (76) and sophomore Marco Bamrah (76) swept the top three places and junior Hayden LeMonds shot 77 in his season debut after a long road to recovery from Bankart Repair shoulder surgery last summer as the Hilltoppers shot 304 to win their own regional a Brown Deer Park, a rather stress-free competition with only three schools fielding full teams. That junior Will Hemauer’s 78 was thrown out speaks to the depth coach Brad Niswonger’s team has again in 2021. There figures to be a wide gap between Marquette and the second-place team at Ives Grove. None of the other six teams in the sectional shot lower than 329 (Oak Creek), paving the way for a spirited battle for the second state berth.

Projected state team qualifiers: Marquette (Milwaukee), Racine Case.

Projected state individual qualifiers: Dylan Moore, Kenosha Indian Trail; Tyler Dahl, Kenosha Tremper; John Mirsberger, Franklin.

WESTOSHA CENTRAL SECTIONAL

TEAM QUALIFIERS REGIONAL SCORE STATE BERTHS LAST Badger (Lake Geneva) 327 32 2019 Brookfield Central 328 14 2018 Brookfield East 327 4 2008 New Berlin West 345 5 2006 Union Grove 330 0 NA Wauwatosa East/West 317 38 2019 West Allis Hale 370 14 2002 Whitnall (Hales Corners) 365 0 NA INDIVIDUAL QUALIFIERS REGIONAL SCORE Nolan Bruni, Westosha Central 84 Johnny Hooper, Greenfield 95 Brandon LaBeau, Greendale 81 Sam Olson, Wisconsin Lutheran 93 Nathan Riel, Wisconsin Lutheran 98 Cy Turner, Wilmot 90 Dane Turner, Wilmot 88 Tom Zacher, Greenfield 94

When, where: 9 a.m. Wednesday at Brighton Dale Links GC-Kansasville, par 72.

That was then (in 2019): Junior Dan Sobeleski (76) and Wauwatosa East/West shot 305 at Wanaki GC in Menomonee Falls and won a shootout with junior Marty Swab (72) and Menomonee Falls (308) to win the Brookfield Central sectional. Swab shared medalist honors with UW-Eau Claire-bound senior Connor Brown of Union Grove, who qualified individually Brookfield Central seniors Jack Anderson (75) and Dean Yun (76). Yun won a playoff over Brookfield East’s Zach Walsh for the final state individual berth. Sophomore Sam Yun (78), who finished T-12, was the top finisher among those golfers still competing during the 2021 high school season.

This is now (in 2021): Badger (Lake Geneva) moves over from the Janesville Parker regional to take aim at Wauwatosa East/West, which placed all five golfers in the top 11 at last week’s Brookfield Central regional at Wanaki GC in Menomonee Falls and shot a 317 to top runner-up Brookfield East by 10 shots for the team title. Junior Ben Soboleski (75) and senior Colin Muellen (79) were the only golfers to break 80 at Wanaki, the kind of scores that will go a long way at Brighton Dale Links in a sectional that is otherwise extremely balanced. Badger won the Union Grove regional at Ives Grove GL in Sturtevant with a 327 behind junior TJ Walton, who played well in the postseason in 2019, and seniors Colton Craig (81) and Chris Bakken (83). Scores are seldom low at Brighton Dale so this sectional will not only test the depth of teams hoping to advance to Wisconsin Dells, but also their patience.

Now this image and these words are EXACTLY how I like to start my day! #prettypearbride #curvybride // Thanks so much for the tag @errinhiltbrandphotography and @verolucephoto ・・・ Here's a bit of a confession. I think about my weight EVERY. SINGLE. MINUTE. OF. EVERY. DAY. I hate it. Yeah, yeah... do something about it. But it might begin to explain my excitement about this session. I grew up sitting on a ladder so I could see the main street out of a window at the store where my mom worked in Mount Horeb. Did you follow that??? Anyone remember good old #BenFranklin stores? It just so happens that my mom's store was right across the street from where one of my most favorite shops in the world is. Marah's. What initially had me walking by the windows a little more often than most normal passerbys--the style. My sister-in-law made an appointment YEARS ago to try on dresses there and I couldn't get over how these really skinny beautiful ladies treated me and my self-doubting ways. I didn't feel like I was a plus size that day and I actually ENJOYED the experience. The shop is the cutest shop I've ever been into -- Marah and Co have some serious style. And the smiles behind the dresses--absolutely out of this world. Fast forward to 2018, Marah asked me if I'd be interested in shooting some wedding dresses. When she explained they were dresses for "Every Body and Every Bride" ... I was sold. I absolutely love this mind set. And Sarah knocked it out of the park. She was a beautiful bride and made those dresses look absolutely awesome. We met at this cute little barn outside of town and had fun mixing and matching florals (by the awesome @heatherhillfloral) and dresses. Shortly after I fell on my rear on some ice, we headed back into town. I couldn't resist taking a few more photos there. This shop---can you tell (????) is my dream place. Marissa put on a little music, Marah poured some champagne and we had so much fun! I think doing a documentary session of that magical moment when you walk into her shop, find THE DRESS, and celebrate would be right up my alley. Just throwing that out there!!! This is my 2nd draft and I hope I didn't leave out anything.

Isaiah Chapter 11

(Tanakh JPS 1985. The Tanakh completely revised with a modern translation of the Hebrew of the Jewish Bible to English begun in 1955 and copyrighted in 1985 by the Jewish Publication Society.)

1But a shoot shall grow out of the stump of Jesse, A twig shall sprout from his stock.

the stump of Jesse, A twig shall sprout from his stock: Isaiah prophetically refers to the “stump” of Jesse (father of King David) as a prophetic announcement of the “Curse of Jeconia”, the cutting down and ending by declaration of G-d of the line of the Kings of Judah in the Books of Samuel and Kings, the branch of David forbidden to ever rule over Judah in Jerusalem again, the line set forth in the Book of Matthew of the New Testament, the line of Jesus. G-d’s anointed king will come from a line of King David through Solomon that was not banished.

2The spirit of the Lord shall alight upon him: A spirit of wisdom and insight, A spirit of counsel and valor, A spirit of devotion and reverence for the Lord.

A spirit of devotion and reverence for the Lord: These attributes of the spirit of G-d are upon G-d’s righteous servant of Isaiah 53/11 where G-d says with regard to His purpose “He shall enjoy it to the full through his devotion. ‘My righteous servant makes the many righteous” and in Malachi 3 as the messenger who arrives with the angel of the covenant of the forgiveness of the sins of the Jewish people that G-d declared for a time to come in Jeremiah 31 and to reconcile the Jewish families one to the other with the teachings of G-d given to Moses at Horeb (Sinai) of and with wisdom and insight. The HaMoshiach is G-d’s righteous servant and Elijah who makes the many righteous.

The HaMoshiach counsels the Jewish people that their past sins are remembered no moreand the need to return to Synagogue, the worship of G-d and performing good deeds with repentance and atonement for their wrongs. Many will be made righteous and heed and revere the name of G-d.

With the spirit of G-d is always the person of the spirit of the Holy G-d who is the angel of the Presence of G-d without form and is the angel of the covenant of sin forgiveness for the Jewish people. The very Presence of G-d alights upon the HaMoshiach with the person of His spirit. All three are together in the first verse of Malachi 3.

“1Behold, I am sending My messenger [Elijah] to clear the way before Me, and the Lord whom you seek shall come to His Temple suddenly. As for the angel [angel of His Presence] of the covenant that you desire, he is already coming. 2But who can endure the day of his coming, and who can hold out when he appears? For he is like a smelter’s fire and like fuller’s lye [G-d}.”

3He shall sense the truth by his reverence for the Lord: He shall not judge by what his eyes behold, Nor decide by what his ears perceive.

He shall not judge by what his eyes behold, Nor decide by what his ears perceive: The HaMoshiach is with the person of G-d’s spirit and the Presence of G-d that have alighted upon him everywhere he goes and in everything that he does. G-d is in control of his actions and his words forming HaMoshiachs perception of all matters, people and situations before him by His power and by His words. The opinions and decisions of the HaMoshiach are determined by G-d not by what he sees and hears.

4Thus he shall judge the poor with equity And decide with justice for the lowly of the land. He shall strike down a land with the rod of his mouth And slay the wicked with the breath of his lips.

He shall strike down a land with the rod of his mouth: G-d controls HaMoshiach’s very words and can speak through him in those words changing them as they leave his mouth in His power just as G-d spoke through Ezekiel. G-d speaks through spirits, angels and men with His words spoken directly to them and by His power.

He will be a great speaker and orator and the world will hear that Judaism is the only true religion of Abraham. The enemies of the Jewish people of the lands of the middle-east will hear his words and feel as though they have been struck to the ground. The land of three religions of Abraham will be struck down (though they will continue). And all those who threaten war in the land of Israel will be removed by his valor, counseling, wisdom and insights to the nations and devotion to G-d.

5Justice shall be the girdle of his loins, And faithfulness the girdle of his waist.

Justice shall be the girdle of his loins, And faithfulness the girdle of his waist: Several scriptures in the Bible make use of the girdle (belt) as a symbol for readiness and preparation. Justice and the whole of morality is the authoritative command of God. The HaMoshiach in Isaiah 53 is prepared and made ready for the commands of G-d like a soldier with chastisement and punishment and with devotion, faithfulness and valor he teaches of the justice, morality and justice of G-d. The HaMoshiach is the teacher of righteousness, morality, justice and faithfulness.

6The wolf shall dwell with the lamb, The leopard lie down with the kid; The calf, the beast of prey, and the fatling together, With a little boy to herd them.

7The cow and the bear shall graze, Their young shall lie down together; And the lion, like the ox, shall eat straw.

8A babe shall play Over a viper’s hole, And an infant pass his hand Over an adder’s den.

9In all of My sacred mount Nothing evil or vile shall be done; For the land shall be filled with devotion to the Lord As water covers the sea.

10In that day, The stock of Jesse that has remained standing Shall become a standard to peoples— Nations shall seek his counsel And his abode shall be honored.

Nations shall seek his counsel: The HaMoshiach who is G-d’s righteous servant described in Isaiah 53 which actually begins in Isaiah 52/14-15. In verse 15 “Just so he shall startle many nations. Kings shall be silenced because of him, For they shall see what has not been told them, Shall behold what they never have heard.”

Kings (Leaders of people) will be surprised of the report of witnesses that the HaMoshiach is G-d’s righteous servant of Isaiah 53, Elijah the messenger and the prophet like Moses and the G-d of Israel is not Jesus or Allah.

Nevertheless, nations (gentiles) will seek the counsel of this servant of G-d who will have the wisdom of Solomon provided by G-d.

And his abode shall be honored:

His abode will be honored not a throne. There is no reference by Isaiah to a kingdom for this twig from the stump of Jesse. G-d’s righteous servant of Isaiah 53 is given a portion and spoil and dies a rich man and will have a famous place of residence. Where he dwells G-d and the person of G-d’s spirit dwell.

11In that day, My Lord will apply His hand again to redeeming the other part of His people from Assyria—as also from Egypt, Pathros, Nubia, Elam, Shinar, Hamath, and the coastlands.

12He will hold up a signal to the nations And assemble the banished of Israel, And gather the dispersed of Judah From the four corners of the earth.

13Then Ephraim’s envy shall cease And Judah’s harassment shall end; Ephraim shall not envy Judah, And Judah shall not harass Ephraim.

14They shall pounce on the back of Philistia to the west, And together plunder the peoples of the east; Edom and Moab shall be subject to them And the children of Ammon shall obey them.

15The Lord will dry up the tongue of the Egyptian sea.—He will raise His hand over the Euphrates with the might of His wind and break it into seven wadis, so that it can be trodden dry-shod.

16Thus there shall be a highway for the other part of His people out of Assyria, such as there was for Israel when it left the land of Egypt.

The HaMoshiach, God’s Anointed King for a Time to Come Isaiah Chapter 11 (Tanakh JPS 1985. The Tanakh completely revised with a modern translation of the Hebrew of the Jewish Bible to English begun in 1955 and copyrighted in 1985 by the Jewish Publication Society.)
