BOYS and GIRLS TAKE THIRD IN IISL TRACK CHAMPIONSHIP

Our boys and girls teams did unexpectedly well at the IISL Conference Championship Meet on Thursday, May 13 at ISI. Both teams scored excellent third place finishes (out of 10 teams competing), and were ahead of several strong teams that had beaten us in smaller meets during the regular season. Considering where we started, there was tremendous improvement shown during this season, and some of our very best performances took place when and where it counted – in the conference championship meet!!

We had three conference champions!

• Lily Carlsen with her best long jump of the year, 13’ 1.25”
• Allie McKinzie with our third all-time best in the 800m at 2:39.6
• Lance Howard with our second longest discus throw ever at 102’ 

Havalah Edwards and Caroline Garau finished two-three  respectively in the 2400m, with Caroline also taking third in the 1600 (scoring a team high 14 points). Clara Able placed in three different events, hurdles, 800m and high jump, scoring 13 points.

Complete results and photos are now posted above.

The Awards Party this year (due to the size of the team) will be in the Fortune Room on Thursday, May 20, starting after school. Awards and recognition for ALL team members will commence at about 4:30pm.
