The River’s Edge Track and Field Meet was held in Umatilla on Friday April 8th, 2016. The Umatilla meet is geared towards Varsity Athletes, so they only take the top three people from each school for each event.
Our school was allowed five girls into the Javelin event because our top five girls all have thrown over 90 ft. This is an exceptional feat, considering most schools only have one girl who can throw in the 90’s. Most schools range in the 80’s.
Mike Odman placed 5th in the Triple Jump with a jump of 37-03 ft. Landon Warne took 1sr place in Discus with a throw of 138-10 ft. Donald Clark placed 4th in Discus with a throw of 119-02 ft. Donald Clark also placed 6th in Shot Put with a throw of 38-08.50 ft. Mike Odman also placed 8th in the 100 Meter Dash with a time of 12.07 seconds.
Delaney Karrels placed 7th in Triple Jump, with a jump of 26-06 ft. Alicia Walter (yours truly) placed 5th in Pole Vaulting with a height of 7-00 ft. Delaney Karrels also placed 6th in High Jump with a height of 4-04 ft. Amber Wells placed 7th in Javelin with a throw of 99-08 ft. She also took 1st place in Shot Put and Discus. In Discus, she throw 104-09 ft, and 32-11.50 ft in Shot Put.
The Girls 4x400 Relay placed 5th with a time of 5:01.54 minutes. The girls who ran it were Cynthia Flores, Bianca Garcia, and Kaitlynne Jensen, and Celeste Moreno. The girls 4x100 placed 5th with a time of 56.63 seconds. The girls who ran it were Londin Warne, Cynthia Flores, Bianca Garcia, and Kiara Brinkley. Elise Griffith in both the 3000 Meter run, and the 1500 Meter run. Her time in the 3000 was 12:39.20 minutes, and her time in the 1500 was 5:43.02 minutes. Kiara Brinkley placed 3rd in the 200 Meter Dash with a time of 28.89 seconds.
Keep in mind, there were lots of other athletes that placed in their events, or made a seasonal personal record. These were only athletes that were made the top eight. 19 schools attended the meet, and provided great competition for our Mac-Hi Pioneers.
