Some great results! AGAIN, if you have not seen Sarah Helgeson run, you need to see this JUNIOR run! First, at the Shippenburg Invitational is AWESOME & the time 57.15 almost 3 seconds ahead of second! Sarah is a hard working, confident, & VERY talented young lady!! More to come the next few weeks!
Danielle Polettie & Kayla Garpstas first & second - FIRST & SECOND! This is a FIRST for Hempfield! I spent the last few years of my coaching career coaching the pole vault & these two girls are special! We have had some AWESOME one-two pole vault punches in the past - Fellenbaum & Lundy, Ressler & Poletti(older sis), BUT this is our best ever!
How about the 2000 m Steeplechase? It is the only time all year the ladies run it! And, Molly Conrad finished SECOND by 0.1 seconds!!
Molly - GREAT RUN!!!

In the sprints, Tory Long's second place was impressive & the time is equally good! - 22.97 Tory an an underclassman is running with the BIG BOYS and showing he belongs!
It is good to see Adam Karl back in the high jump, a 6th place at Shippensburg in impressive & Darius Stuckey's 8th at the same height provides another 1-2 punch!
Speaking of 1-2 punches Unger & Aument are another thatmany teams would love to have! After the graduation of Kyle Long, Tanner & JD are keeping the Hempfield thrower tradition alive & well!
The big push to Districts & States began this weekend & it looks like Hempfield will have some athletes to watch!
