VARSITY TRACK: Evergreen Boys & Girls Defeat Swanton & Delta In Tri-Meet

METAMORA (APRIL 18, 2023) – On a raw and windy day, a number of athletes from Delta, Evergreen and Swanton did not compete in a tri-meet at Pifer Field.

As for those who DID run. jump and throw, the Viking girls outlasted their fellow Fulton County opponents scoring 67 points while Delta finished with 51 and Swanton 35.

On the boys side, Evergreen won with 69 points compared to Delta’s 57 and 35 for the Bulldogs.

Winning coach Alex Lutheran explained the reasoning behind allowing many of his athletes to compete in events other than their own.

“Today was kind of like an enhanced practice or a scrimmage would be in other sports. We are trying people in differrent races and see where they are in races they don’t normally run and see where those times are.”

“This makes us more competitive on Saturdays in the invitationals and see what we can make our team the best for those meets.”

With the strong westerly winds and sub-50-degree temps being a big hindering factor, times were not stellar.

Kara Huntzinger won both hurdle events with times of 17.13 in the 100 hurdles and then 51.71 in the 300 hurdles to help pace the Viking girls to their triumph.

Brooke Sintobin won the long jump and the Evergreen girls won both the 4×800 and 4×200 relay events.

Delta scored first place finishes in the 1600 with Josilyn Welch taking first in a time of 6:16.65.

Olivia Smith won the shot put with a toss of 32’10.5″ and the Panthers’ 4×100 also took first.

Delta coach KJ Abair echoed Lutheran’s comments on using a tri-meet as like an exhibition type atmosphere to see where his team is in relationship to a Saturday invite.

“I use a tri to see what people can do in an open 1, open 2 or 4 because the fastest one is in your relays on Saturday.”

“Right now, we are trying to find people besides those fastest ones to fill out those relays. I also let my ‘B’ teams compete to see what they can do in a tri-meet as well, give them a chance to excel.”

Swanton got first place finishes from Peighton Manning in the 400, Katie Floyd in the discus with a throw of 99’10”, and Megan Haselman in the 100.

Swanton’s Jared Walker concurred with his coaching partners regarding the use of a tri-meet.

“A tri-meet is basically a hard practice. When we make our lineup, we kind of mix and match with people and we look forward to the meets on the weekends.”

“Our thing is we will sometimes have a hard practice the day before a tri-meet just because we are preparing to compete on the weekend.”

“It’s fun with a tri-meet to mix and match and with the weather like today, you have to be cautious of the position you put your athletes.”

Sam Worline led the way for the Viking boys as he won both throwing events.

Worline beat teammates Robbie Pennington and Walker Lumbrezer, as the VIkes took a 1-2-3 finish in the shot put with a heave of 47’6″.

Worline won the discus, outflinging his opponents by nearly 11 feet with a throw of 118’4″.

Other Evergreen finishers were freshman Wil Ruetz in the long jump, Nick Rosinski in the 1600, Carson Leroux in the 3200 and the Evergreen 4×800 relay team.

Ronnie Wyse was a double winner for Delta. The Panther junior took the 110 hurdles in 15.92 and then won the high jump with less misses at 5’10 than second place finisher Tyson Woodring of Evergreen and teammate Alex York.

The Panthers’ Konrad Hawkins took the 100 in 11.57 and Eli Mora won the 300 hurdles in 42.45.

Swanton took a 1-2 finish in the 4×400 relay and won in the 4×200 and 4×100 relay events.
