FLANDREAU – Although no team points were kept at the annual Barnes-Evans Relays held April 4, several individuals took advantage of a perfect opening day for outdoor track and field.
Colman-Egan’s Walker Olivier won the 110-meter hurdles in 15.38 seconds, eclipsing the Class B State Meet hand-held qualifying mark of 16.3 by nearly a second. Olivier’s winning time of 43.59 in the 300 hurdles was barely 1/2 a second off the handheld qualifying standard of 42.9 seconds.
Olivier’s teammates – Cole Kriech and Kade Groos – beat the hand-held qualifying standard of 52.4 seconds in the 400-meter dash with their respective firstand second-place times of 51.66 and 51.84 seconds, while Hawk freshman Devin Lohr won the 200 in 23.83, just .23 off the qualifying standard of 23.6.
Teammate Malik Poppenga qualified for the state triple jump as his winning mark of 40 feet, 8 3/4 inches bettered the standard of 40-1. Poppenga also won the high jump (5-6) and long jump (18-2.75).
The Hawks’ foursome of Bodee Groos, Olivier, Poppenga and Kade Groos won the 4x400 while ORR’s Jack Olson, Connor Spilde, Peyton Roti and Casey Renass teamed to win the 4x800.
Flandreau’s Trevor Hahn, Brendan Ten Eyck, Tristan Bietz and Austin Weber combined to run a 1:49.63 for fourth in the 4x200 while Weber, Bietz, Hahn and Mario Bonilla finished fourth in the medley in 4:27.06. Lars Dailey, Grady Gullickson, Gabe Hobbie and Ben Hobbie ran a 9:56.56 for fifth in the 4x800.
On the girls’ side, Flandreau’s Ashtyn Bertram won both short sprints, crossing in 13.34 seconds in the 100 and 28.06 seconds in the 200, as Madie Hursey won both the 1,600 (5:53.35) and 3,200 (12:45.39).
Colman-Egan’s Mackenzie Hemmer won both hurdle races, clocking an 18.57 in the 100 and a 54.04 in the 300.
The Hawk quartet of Katie Hannasch, Hemmer, Elizabeth Moore and Olivia Baumberger won the 4x100 relay while Flandreau’s Kylie Bertram, Hannah Parsley, Cassidy Keith and Ashtyn Bertram teamed to win the 4x200.
