State Finals

Two school records and a near third one later, the 2017 season comes to end on a very positive note! Kalley Harris was able to take down another school record, this time putting her name on the 100 Hurdles with a time of 14.76, finishing in the 6th place, and taking down a record that had stood since 1996. She then came back and hour and a half later and took off more time on her own record in the 300 IM Hurdles and finishing in a close 2nd place! Brielle Clarke was able to finish in 7th place in the 100m Dash in an all time PR for herself and missed tying the school record by .02, a record that has stood since 1985.  Both Girls were able to earn All-State Honors, the 4th and 5th in Kalley's high school career and the first for Brielle! Also, with their efforts, they helped the team to finish 22nd as a team out of 67 scoring schools! Great work Ladies and congratulations on finishing the season with your bests!

State Prelims

There are three races left on the season, as Kalley and Brielle were able to make it to the State Finals tomorrow, Saturday, morning. Kalley leaned just enough at the line to grab the 9th spot in the 100 Hurdles, getting in by .01, then came back strong in the 300 Hurdles with the second fastest time of the day. Brielle, meanwhile, moved up to second in her heat and finished with the number 5 spot in the 100m dash. Race times tomorrow are at 9:50 for the 100 Hurdles, 10:10 for the 100m dash, and 11:30 for the 300 Hurldes. Live results can once again be found on Wayzata Results.
Any questions, let me know,

Prelims for Kalley and Brielle at the State Meet are tomorrow, Friday, morning at Hamline University. Kalley will run her first race, the 100 Hurdles, at 9:30, then the 300 IM Hurdles at 11:30, while Brielle will be running at 9:50. You will be able to get up to the minute results on Wayzata Results.  If they are one of the nine fastest in the Prelims, they will advance to the Finals, which will be on Saturday morning.
If you are planning to go down to watch, know that parking is even more limited and that there is a fee to enter, $10 for adults, $7 for students, and there will be many more spectators, so give yourself a lot of time, both for parking and then entering the stadium area.
If there are any questions, let me know.

Section Results

Congratulations to Kalley Harris and Brielle Clarke as they both qualified for next weeks State Meet! Kalley has qualified for the 4th year in a row as she got 2nd place in the 100 Hurdles and winning the 300IM Hurdles, breaking her own school record in the process! Brielle ran an all time best to grab 2nd in the 100m Dash, qualifying for her first State Meet! Races will be on Friday with Prelims, followed by Finals on Saturday the 11th.

Congrats to all of the girls that competed today, in probably the hottest temps we have had to deal with this year. Three of the four relay teams set Seasonal Bests, and the Pole Vault proved to be our deepest event this season with all 3 girls finishing in the top 7 overall. Kalaina Verdick finished 7th, Mog O'Grady was 4th, and Camika Hurdle coming in 3rd, missing State by one place. I very positive way to end the team portion of our season.

Overall meet results can be found by clicking on Wayzat Results at the top of the blog page and going into the Results section looking for Section 5AA.  I will get our individual results up later this weekend.

For those that have not turned in their uniforms or have just completed their seasons, please bring your uniforms to me on Monday. I'll wait by the equipment room after school.

Any questions, please let me know,
Thanks,
Denny
