On Saturday, April 12th, the Olympia High School girls track team competed at the Chuck Danner co-ed Invite held at Metamora High School. Despite being short-handed due to injuries and absences, the team showed resilience with several athletes achieving personal records.
Kennadi had a standout performance in the discus, throwing a personal best of 22.76 meters. In the shot put, Abagail set a new PR with a throw of 7.8 meters. Annaston also delivered a strong performance in the long jump, hitting a personal best of 4.73 meters.
On the track, Maddison and Noelia achieved PR’s in the 100 meter dash, and Sidney notched a season best in the 1600-meter run after competing in the 3200 earlier in the meet. Emma Swartzendruber ran a great 800 and finished in 2nd, Amelia Kistner ran her first 3200 of the season and finished 4th place. Overall there were a lot of strong performances throughout the day. These girls are continuing to improve as the season progresses and it’s fun to see!

It was a cold night at Deemack High school, but that didn’t stop our girls from showing up and showing out at the first outdoor track meet of the season! From our 3 freshman throwers Kennadi Craig, Abagail Bridgewater and Kynlee Miller competing in their first ever High school outdoor meet to Annaston Piro jumping a PR of 4.72m earning her 2nd place in long jump, a super fast 4x1 (Mya Downs, Gabby Dickhut, Madyson Bridgeforth and Charlee Durham) taking 1st place with a time of 52.1, and a well ran 1600 by Amelia Kistner taking 1st place with a time of 5:39. Several season bests were achieved in various events throughout the meet. The team kicked off the season with grit, energy, and some serious success. Proud of this crew already—and we’re just getting started. Let’s go, Oly girls track team!
