End of a Great Track Season

Wednesday noted the end of a great track season for Kentlake High School as they had their banquet. The month of May has been filled with multiple weeks of post season. Dusty is the jump coach at the school and had multiple people compete in the league meet. They dwindled a little bit at districts, and ended up with 3 jumpers qualifying to the state meet. Dallin qualified in High Jump, and Zach and Taylor qualified in Long Jump.

The state meet was held in Pasco, WA, and I was able to go with Dusty. Taylor ended up with 10th at Long Jump, Dallin placed 10th in High Jump, and Zach placed first in Long Jump with the longest jump in the state this year. It was a great trip, and I forgot how funny it is when you put 6 teenage boys together. Below are some picture of the post season meets.

This is Dallin at High Jump. He jumped 6'3" at the league, and 6'4" at the district meet. Unfortunately, he injured his leg during warm-up at state and only jumped 6'2".

Here is Zach thrilled with being a state Champion. As you can see he jumped 23'3". It was very exciting.

Here is Taylor walking back after a warm-up jump at state.

Here is Briana running the mile at the league meet. (She is the one in the yellow shirt on the left side). She is one of the young women in the neighboring ward who I see on Wednesdays.

Zach triple jump - He made it to districts, and qualified as the alternate for state. Due to a couple people not being available to jump, he was eligible to jump, but chose not to due to his ankle being injured.

Jordan triple Jump - She made it to districts, but unfortunately, did not make it to state.
