Shorewood Track and Field

The rain circled the field for most of the night but the track stayed dry. It was a little uncanny.

The official results are here.

The boy's 4x800 team advances with a solid win. They lowered their own meet record from last year by 6 seconds. They should be in the fast heat at the state meet. There were no individual qualifiers on the boy's team. Which doesn't mean that there weren't some huge races it's just that the competition was that deep and that good.

On the girl's side, the 4x800 team got a pr by 15 seconds but came up just short in what was a very fast and very wild finish. They will all be back next year which will be great for the program. Individually, only Claire was good enough to move on and she did so with style. She was all alone out front in the mile and the two mile. A dominate performance.

On a side note a friend of hers from another school named courtney ran on a fractured hip. Courtney ran a leg of the 4x800, the mile, and the two mile and made it to state in two. A very gutsy performance.




The state meet is on the 2nd and the 3rd of June in Lacrosse. The 4x800 will be very competitive but we do have a chance to win.
