GVSU Laker Challenge – Boys

3-23-22

Taking advantage of the ideal weather indoors the boys turned in some great performances at the Laker Challenge, running on Grand Valleys 300 meter indoor track.

We had a mix of some upperclassmen and many first timers, and they all competed well.  They had a great attitude of have fun while putting in a hard effort.  None of our first timers were intimidated, they just went out and competed.

In a great showing we had several athletes post lifetime PRs in their first meet of the season.

Two of our throwers, Andrew Steger (So) and Briar Hambrock (Jr) both Pr’d.  Seniors Conner Rosler and Gabe Whittle Pr’d in the 200, while Conor Somers Pr’d in the 1600 missing Nathan Walkers school record by less than a second.  Sophomore Connor Pettis had a Pr jump in the long jump.  Daniel Romero (So) looked good in the 60 hurdles, while first year track athlete Michael Romero (Jr) gained good experience in the 60 H and 60 dash.  Another first time athlete Garrett Hanshue (Jr) who only had one day of practice on the high jump was able to clear the first two heights today jumping 5’4” and turning in a solid leg on the 4x300.

Sorry I don’t have more details but results were not released at the meet and they have not been posted yet.
