Clear blue skies, a tailwind for the sprinters, a cool day & hot performances!!!!
In the sprints, the tailwind made times go low!! Tory Long, Devon Santos & Sarah Helgeson led the charge for Hempfield! The coaches were careful not to run the athletes hard, because of the big meet with McCaskey on Monday!!!
Ladies first! Sarah Helgeson! If you have the chance you need to see this girl run! Again, the coaching staff did not over use Sarah, but she had time to win the 200(25.64) & 400(57.69) meters! She won the 400 meters by 3 seconds! Danielle Bland ran an awesome 100m(12.73) & fished second!Also, the 4x100 relay took first in 51.70 with the team of Abbey Friedman, Claire Davis, Sarah Klag, & Danielle Bland!
Hempfield's young male sprinters also had a great day Tory Long placing 2nd in the 100(11.04) & 400 relay(44.25)2nd place & Devon Santos placing second in the 300 hurdles(38.72) & 400 relay(44.25) 2nd place. (Saved some for the McCaskey meet!)
