Kent City Elite Invitational 4-28-23

Cool with a little breeze

 

What a meet tonight at Kent City. Easily our best meet of the season. Loads of PR‘s and lots of character shown in competition.

 

Daniel Romero had a monster day. Cool as a cucumber winning the 300 hurdles, the 110 hurdles, and placing second in the long jump, with 2 personal records. His second place in the long jump, broke the old meet record, but was bested by an athlete from Whitehall.  Carter Rottman and Owen Hertel battled each other to Pr’s in both hurdle races with each taking a turn beating the other in very close races.

Connor Pettis (despite having a poor start) and Kolten Belmarez ran a good races in the 100 to Pr.  Jacob Burns had a strong stretch run in the 200 to set a new Pr.

Bjorn Johnson continues to make stead improvement in the 400 with another PR, while Gary Springstead Pr’d placing 2nd battling back from injury.

Our distance runners showed up strong today as well. Sean Pettis, Carter Sherman, Blake Taylor, Issac Romero, all recorded big personal records in their events. Sean placed in both the 1600 elite and the 800.   I was very happy with some of the risks these guys took to put themselves in a position to run fast.

Our throwers recorded PR’s with Luke Bradley and Nathan Burns both having big throws in the disc.

 

This great team performance lead to a 2nd place finish in the Silver division.  2022 State Champs Berrien Springs were the team winners.

 

It’s a great feeling when you can be proud of the entire team.

 

We are hoping to keep our momentum going through the next few weeks as we approach the conference championships and regionals.
