LHS/H-BC track teams compete in Worthington Invitational

The Luverne and Hills-Beaver Creek track and field teams competed in the Worthington Invitational Thursday, April 27.
The Cardinals and Patriots were among 12 teams invited to the event.
In the girls’ team scores LHS placed first with 181 points and H-BC placed fifth with 65 total team points.
In the boys’ team scores LHS placed second with 119 points. H-BC placed 10th with 21 total team points.
“Anytime we can place Top 6 in relays or individual events, I feel we are doing well,” H-BC head coach Rex Metzger said.
“Last night we had quite a few, which was fun to see.”
As for Luverne’s performance, Cardinals head coach Pete Janiszeski said he thought the kids had a good night and took steps toward season goals.
“They are gaining more and more confidence with each meet,” he said. “And we had a lot of nice performances on a less-than-perfect night weather-wise.”
Brynn Bakken turned in solid performances for the Patriots with first-place finishes in the 100 and 200 meters (13.07 and 27.25) and the long jump (15-04). She also anchored the winning 4-by-100-meter relay team with Abigail Harris, Brynn Rauk and Layla Deelstra with a time of 53.49.
Luverne had several first-place performances in the meet that also featured a new school record in the high jump. Elizabeth Wagner cleared 5-04 to beat Sharla Van Meeteren’s (Reisch) 1988 record of 5-03.
Wagner also placed first in the 400 meters (1:02.32) and anchored the winning 4-by-800-meter relay team with Jenna DeBates, Tiana Lais, and Cassi Chesley. Their time was 10:00.24.
Other first-place finishes for the Cardinal girls include Augusta Papik’s 18.78 in the 100-meter hurdles and 33-06.25 in the triple jump, Jenna DeBates’ 11:17.97 in the 3200 meters, Jadyn Hart’s 124-05 in the discus, Jocelyn Hart’s 39-04.75 in the shot put, and the 4:24.51 finish by the girls 4-by-400-meter-relay team of Tiana Lais, Reinha John, Ella Schmuck and Cassi Chesley.
Cardinal boys’ first- places finishes include Lucky Dara’s 23.9 in the 200 meters, Camden Janiszeski’s 4:38.21 in the 1600 meters, Owen Janiszeski’s 9:58.63 in the boys’ 3200 meters and DJ Rock’s 12-0 in the pole vault.
