Whitefish Bay Invitational - Exhibition Afterall
Note from Coach Dom:
This meet ended up becoming an Exhibition meet. There was some mix up in meet entries, so the meet manager decided to cancel the scoring and to just run it as an exhibition. This is unfortunate as I really believe that we had a chance in winning our first meet in many years. We had some excellent performances! Keep up the great work. We have the Varsity Conference meet and the JV Conference meet coming up. I hope to get our Vaulter’s up and off the ground by the next meet.

Greyhounds Show Promise at UW-Whitewater
The young and greatly expanded Shorewood Track & Field boys team showed great promise at the first meet of the season held at UW-Whitewater. According to Coach Dom, the team size has virtually doubled, from 25 last year, to approximately 50 dedicated boys this year. Friday's results may be a good leading indicator of what the team can do as this young team improves throughout the season.
While I was unable to get to the meet until halfway through...and could not keep track of everyone, here are some of the highlights as I saw them:
Boys 4x800 Relay Places Third With Solid Performance
The 4x800 relay team, manned by Tyler, Mazur, Taylor and Vorpahl had a good showing by placing third overall with a time of 8:52.56. Tyler set the tone with a 2:08, followed by Mazur at about 2:15 while Vorpahl and Taylor wrapped the effort up both at about 2:14. All four runners had PRs. While early in the season, this is the top conference time by a long shot. Their performance compares to a 9:04 last year.
Nate Booth Hurdles to a Strong Finish in 55 Hurdles
With a PR of 10.65, Booth placed 27th overall in a competitive field. His time ranks him as a contender in the Woodland Conference.
Miller, Knutson and Washington Compete in 55 Meter Dash
Shorewood was well represented in the 55 Meter Dash with all competitors generating PRs. Miller placed 18th with a time of 7.12, Knutson was right behind him at 7.15, followed by Washington at 7.45.
Morgan Baker Places 8th in Girls 1600 Meter Run
Seeded in the first heat, Baker absolutely dominated to field and had no competition through the 8 lap event. Her time of 6:07 should have placed her in the final heat, but regardless she had a great run with a solid finish. I believe this must be a PR.
Emily Bachhuber was scheduled to compete but was scratched due to illness.
Down to the Wire in the 1600 for Pre-ter Drews...Beaten Out by an Elbow; Pendleton Has Strong Showing Placing 14th
This had to be the most exciting finish of the meet....with Drews, in typical fashion, pouring it on during the final lap, getting edged out of first place by an elbow. Drews began the race in ordinary fashion, running in the middle of the pack, somewhere around 8th, during the first half of the race. He began to surge forward in the final quarter, quickly moving up to third place. With just one lap to go, Peter moved into second place and still had a good 30 meter gap to close to catch the leader with a half-lap to go. His kick "kicked in" but could not get around Rehfeldt in the final 5 meters and came in second, .21 seconds behind the champion. Drews had a solid PR and is ranked top in conference and highly ranked in D2 state with this time.
Pendleton was in the second fastest heat and ran an impressive race. He kept a good pace but for laps 4 and 5 when he decided to take a break, spiking above a 40 second pace. He made up for it with a strong finish, passing a runner and placing 2nd in his heat with a time of 5:02.
Boys 4x200 Had Solid Time But DQd for Tough Handoff
The team made up of Matt Washington, Jordan Washington, Charles Miller and Joey Knutson had a strong showing and would have placed relatively high with a time of around 1:43.6 but for a DQ due to a poor handoff. This foursome shows good promise for the future as they get their act together on the exchanges.
Shorewood Boys Fair Well in the 400 Meters...With Jordan Having a Great Race
Jordan Washington got his 400 Meter season off to a strong start with a time of 55.1, placing him fourth overall for a medal. Oliver Heywood proved he has some talent as a sprinter as well coming in with a time of 58.2.
Dodd Finishes Strong in 800; Schroeder Gives All in First 400 of 800 Meter Race
Freshman Keith Dodd's first time effort in the 800 was an impressive 2:18, placing him 18th overall in the meet. Keith ran alone for most of the race as the runners were stretched out around the track. Not knowing how much he had in him, Keith closed the gap considerably during the final lap. This time places him as the top runner in this event for the Woodland Conference. While early in the season, Dodd's performance as a Freshman is encouraging.
Determined to make his mark, Gavin positioned himself as the top guy to beat in his heat of the 800 Meter race, setting the pace considerably fastest than the pack. Going out at 1:05 for the first 400 and well in the lead, Gavin "hit the wall" and could not hold his lead, finishing fourth with a respectable time of 2:22.04. I believe this is a PR for Gavin and am sure he learned a lot about pace in the 800 which will serve him well in the future.
Big Aces Duke It Out in 3200; Tyler Finishes Third
This event was everything it was promoted to be as three of the top distance runners went head to head in the first meet of the season. Spencer Agnew was the runner to beat and he quickly set the pace with Lauderbach and Tyler falling in step for step right behind; the remaining runners quickly lagged the leading trio. The three were still together stride for stride at the 1 mile mark at a pace of about 4:47-8. Shortly thereafter the trio began to lap the other runners and some jockeying around for first happened as they passed. At about lap 10 Agnew decided to make a statement and broke out with Lauderbach holding on and Tyler slipping back. By the 14th lap it was clear that the race was either Agnew's or Lauderbach's depending on who had the stronger kick. As it turns out, Agnew had the stronger kick and won the race by 1.5 seconds, at 9:30.62; Lauderbach was second with a very impressive PR of 9:32.28 and Tyler finished third with a strong PR of 9:47.52. All three set a meet record.
4x400 Places 17th to Wrap Up the Meet at About 10:00 pm
The foursome of J. Washington, Oliver Heywood, Peter Drews and Mario Giacovassi closed the house with a 4x400 time of 3:55.20. Jordon led off at about 55.0, followed by Oliver at about 61, Drews and Mario both at about 58.

Pendleton was in the second fastest heat and ran an impressive race. He kept a good pace but for laps 4 and 5 when he decided to take a break, spiking above a 40 second pace. He made up for it with a strong finish, passing a runner and placing 2nd in his heat with a time of 5:02.
Boys 4x200 Had Solid Time But DQd for Tough Handoff
The team made up of Matt Washington, Jordan Washington, Charles Miller and Joey Knutson had a strong showing and would have placed relatively high with a time of around 1:43.6 but for a DQ due to a poor handoff. This foursome shows good promise for the future as they get their act together on the exchanges.
Shorewood Boys Fair Well in the 400 Meters...With Jordan Having a Great Race
Jordan Washington got his 400 Meter season off to a strong start with a time of 55.1, placing him fourth overall for a medal. Oliver Heywood proved he has some talent as a sprinter as well coming in with a time of 58.2.
Dodd Finishes Strong in 800; Schroeder Gives All in First 400 of 800 Meter Race
Freshman Keith Dodd's first time effort in the 800 was an impressive 2:18, placing him 18th overall in the meet. Keith ran alone for most of the race as the runners were stretched out around the track. Not knowing how much he had in him, Keith closed the gap considerably during the final lap. This time places him as the top runner in this event for the Woodland Conference. While early in the season, Dodd's performance as a Freshman is encouraging.
Determined to make his mark, Gavin positioned himself as the top guy to beat in his heat of the 800 Meter race, setting the pace considerably fastest than the pack. Going out at 1:05 for the first 400 and well in the lead, Gavin "hit the wall" and could not hold his lead, finishing fourth with a respectable time of 2:22.04. I believe this is a PR for Gavin and am sure he learned a lot about pace in the 800 which will serve him well in the future.
Big Aces Duke It Out in 3200; Tyler Finishes Third
This event was everything it was promoted to be as three of the top distance runners went head to head in the first meet of the season. Spencer Agnew was the runner to beat and he quickly set the pace with Lauderbach and Tyler falling in step for step right behind; the remaining runners quickly lagged the leading trio. The three were still together stride for stride at the 1 mile mark at a pace of about 4:47-8. Shortly thereafter the trio began to lap the other runners and some jockeying around for first happened as they passed. At about lap 10 Agnew decided to make a statement and broke out with Lauderbach holding on and Tyler slipping back. By the 14th lap it was clear that the race was either Agnew's or Lauderbach's depending on who had the stronger kick. As it turns out, Agnew had the stronger kick and won the race by 1.5 seconds, at 9:30.62; Lauderbach was second with a very impressive PR of 9:32.28 and Tyler finished third with a strong PR of 9:47.52. All three set a meet record.
4x400 Places 17th to Wrap Up the Meet at About 10:00 pm
The foursome of J. Washington, Oliver Heywood, Peter Drews and Mario Giacovassi closed the house with a 4x400 time of 3:55.20. Jordon led off at about 55.0, followed by Oliver at about 61, Drews and Mario both at about 58.

Note from Dom Regarding Tuesday's Time Trials
Message from Dom to the boys:
Nice job today with the 1 Mile Time Trial! It is hard to get back into the swing of things only a few days into the season. Despite that, I'm happy that you took on the roll of getting in your warm ups without me and making sure that everybody was ready to go when the time came to race. If you are not happy with your time, then throw it out the window!! It is a starting point for me in writing your workouts until you next race. Once you improve on your times then we can adjust your workouts and get you ready to peak for the end of the season. A quick look, seems to say that everybody improved from last year. NICE JOB! Take care of the little things.
