June 4 - MHSAA D2 Track and Field State Finals - at Ada Forest Hills Eastern

We had 5 athletes attend the meet.

Kennedy Christoffersen (Sr) ran a solid race in the 100 hurdles despite missing the entire week due to illness.

Gable Whittle (Sr) competed in the long jump. He had an ok performance jumping farther than his PR from last year, but couldn't quite find the board today, which kept him from getting to his PR of this year.

Conor Somers (Sr) ran in the fast heat of the 800 with the race playing out just like he had planned it with the exception of his finish place. He sat in the pack for the first 400, moved to contact with the leaders with 300 to go and went for it with 200 to go. He ended up 2nd in a pretty crowded and tactical race. An athlete from Forest Hills Easter was just a little quicker over the last 200.

The boys in the 4x400 turned in the best race of their season to be the first 4x4 team to break 3:30 since I have been coaching, except they didn't. We were DQ'd due to an accidental impediment in the exchange zone. They would have finished 9th. Daniel Romero (So) improved on his best split time by 2 seconds. I was proud of the class they showed in handling the DQ.
