What’s in a name?

Yes, it is Shari’–with the apostrophe–Welton. “I guess my mom just wanted to stress the `eee’ sound,” Thornwood’s outstanding senior basketball player said. “It’s on my birth certificate, so that was the plan.” The stress for the 6-foot Wisconsin recruit is now on the Class AA state playoffs. “Our goal is to go Downstate,” she said. “Our heads have to be together, but we can do it.” She’ll not only play basketball for the Badgers, she’ll study. Welton ranks No. 9 in her class at Thornwood. That probably deserves an exclamation point.
