Ka-Boom


In the words of an old friend (Gary Rima)...Ka-boom! Our final regular season meet produced some terrific performances including another school record and several PR's. Sophomore Angie Kaplar broke her own school record by .22 seconds in the 100 meter hurdles as she place a close second place in 13.61. That time should ensure her a spot at the NCAA First Round meet in Eugene next month.

Junior Bree LeRoy (pictured) continued her outstanding season with a new personal best in the long jump (19-8.25). This was a full foot lifetime best.

Junior Langley Iverson had another solid performance. While she only cleared 5-7.25, her succeeding jumps look as good as they have all year.

The throwers had a solid day as well. Nikkie Rudder was second in the shot put (46-10.25). Destanae Howerton-Davis had a huge lifetime best (45-2.5) to finish third. In the discus Howerton-Davis was third (138-10.25). Anneli Stahl threw the hammer 175-3.25 to finish second.

Sophomore Theresa Waybright got her season turned around with her first clearance over 12 feet this year.

I thought we performed well for the most part. We have some injury issues that have taken their toll on our sprinters. Hopefully, the weekend off will help them as we get ready to enter the championship season.
