Grizzlies And Cowboys Run In Bear Lake

The Grizzly and Cowboy track teams competed in their last meet of the season prior to districts that take place later this week.  Several of the athletes took advantage of this last meet to set some new pr’s while others tried out some new events that they had never participated in before.  Many of those choosing a new event this late in the season did so as part of a strategic plan to see if they could steal some points in this week’s district championships.

Hyrum Barnes who specializes in the throwing events had a good day.  Barnes placed fifth in the discus and earned a new pr in the shot put where he finished in the number three slot.  Fellow Cowboy throwers Haydn Frandsen and Rusty Hatch each also pr’d in the discus.  Hatch also hit a new personal best in the shot put while Frandsen finished in the top five in the javelin.  For the Lady Cowboys once again nearly every girl that ran the 100 meters earned a new personal best time.  Myken Rindlisbaker also did well in the throwing events earning new pr’s in both the shot put and the javelin.

The Lady Grizzly hurdlers had a terrific day with every single one of them earning a new pr in one of the two hurdle events.  Bella Eddins led the way for the Lady Grizzlies in those races placing first in both the 100 and 300 meter hurdles.  Giulia Succetti the Grizzly’s foreign exchange student from Italy earned new pr’s in both the discus and javelin and freshman thrower Vesica Eiman threw a new pr in the shot put.  The strong Lady Grizzly distance runners also finished well in several of their races with most placing in the top five in each race.  Tessica Jorgensen’s day included another victory in the javelin and a thrilling come from behind win in the 800 meter race.  The Grizzly men also had some great performances.  Several boy hurdlers made either season or all time best runs with senior Landon Moss leading the way winning the 300 hurdles while placing second in the 110 meter hurdles.  Fellow senior Laexin VanGass who has missed out on most of the season made his debut placing second in the high jump and second in the triple jump.  VanGass did so while setting pr’s in both.  Carson Welch showed that he is capable of setting a solid mark in the long jump and finished in sixth place.  The highlight of the day for the boys team came from Jack Eddins who has been flirting with setting a new school record in the pole vault all season and finally got it done winning the event in first place.

All of the Cowboy and Grizzly competitors seem to be peaking at the right time as they head into districts this week.  The district meet will stretch over two days taking place Thursday and Friday at Blackfoot High School.
