Seven Saratoga High School junior varsity Panthers stepped up to the top-five at last weekend’s Okie Blanchard Invitational in Cheyenne.
Alex Ziegler was Saratoga’s first-place champion, with a time of 25.18 in the junior varsity 200 meter dash. Meredith Lincoln also made three top-five placements in the junior varsity 100 meter hurdles, 300 meter hurdles and long jump.
Other JV athletes in the top five included Alicia Zaragoza for the junior varsity 400 meter dash; Bradley Bifano for the junior varsity high jump; and Matthew Lincoln for the junior varsity 400 meter dash. The boys’ junior varsity 4x400 meter relay team (Bradley Bifano, Cristian Soles, Matthew Lincoln and Chase Mennear) also pulled in fourth place, with a time of 4:15.7.
Saratoga’s varsity team saw two top-five athletes in individual events, including Cameron Collamer for the 800 meter run (third place), and Ben Falk for the long jump (third place) and 200 meter dash (fourth place). The boys’ varsity 4x100 relay team (Hunter Mason, Tate Stinson, Alex Ziegler and Seth Harrison) grabbed third place, with a time of 46.57.
“We had pretty darn good meet, and even though we were missing some kids who left for spring break early, I was impressed with competitive of kids,” said head coach Rex Hohnholt. “We’re getting where need to be, and I saw good performances from all of our kids throughout. We’re more mentally prepared than we had been in other meets, and I’m excited to see all the improvement. It was a good chance to see our young kids compete against kids their own age, and I encourage them to work harder in practice and strive to improve their performances.”
The Panthers’ next meet is the Carbon County Invite, starting at 11 a.m. on Friday, April 25 at Rawlins High School.
