The Track and Field teams had their final home meet last night versus Hastings.  

Both teams came out on top, setting PR’s and a few school records. 

 The boys came out strong with a school record setting 4 by 800 relay of Krebs, Kane, Katsarsky, and Monroe with a time of 10 minutes and 7 seconds.  

Zach Krebs also broke his own school record in the pole vault, clearing 9 feet.

Cooper Monroe ran his heart out to set a new PR in the 2 mile run taking first, followed closely by Blake Kane in second.  

It was a hard fought victory for Katsarsky in both the mile run and the 800 meters.  

Josh Ilgenfritz had yet another successful night taking first in both hurdles races and the 400 meter run.  

Yancer and Johnson went 1 and 2 in the shot put, then assisted Politte and Turnbull to win the 4 by 100 relay.  

Jacob Politte also combined forces with O’Connell, Wabindato, and Torres to dominate the 4 by 200 relay race.  

Isaac Torres and Trace Edwards went 1 and 2 in the 70 followed by Edwards and Randol taking home the gold and silver in the 200 meter run.  

Cash lept his way to another W in the high jump and Gavin Chapman and Asher Bartlett set PR’s in the long jump beating out the competition.  

The boys closed out the night nearly breaking the all time record for the 4 by 400 relay, missing it by 1 second with a team of Torres, Edwards, Randol, and Chapman
