Girls News and Notes

Thanks to everyone who came to celebration night Monday. It was one of the best turnouts we have had in years. Good times were had by all as we gathered to rejoice in the blessing showered upon our ladies this season. In addition to the 55 Top 10 Certificates awarded, the 18 School Record medals awarded, and the seven State Qualifiers plaques awarded, the following special awards winners were:

• Leadership Award--Logan Bartz, Alayna Greenfield, Erin Greenfield, Kelli Johnson, Kaila Knueppel, Lauren Rahn, Nikki Reinhardt, Erica Spiegelberg, Mari Thompson, Kerri Tolbert
• Newcomer Award--Taylor Corkum
• Most Valuable Athlete--Lauren Rahn

Uniforms need to be turned in to the Receptionist by June 22nd. Please place everything in a bag with your name on it. Bills will be mailed by the end of June.

Thanks also to all those who made the trek west this past weekend to compete (and support those competitors). It is always a great weekend, and this year was no exception. Congrats to those who participated in the meet:

• Christa Winslow--9th place in the 100 hurdles (becoming the first female WISCO athlete to participate in a track finals race)
• Kerri Tolbert--12th place in shot put
• Kelli Johnson--13th place in discus
• Christa Winslow--15th place in 300 hurdles
• Taylor Corkum--16th place in pole vault (setting a new freshman record and tying the school record in the process)
• Erica Spiegelberg--17th place in 3200 run
• Logan Bartz--18th place in pole vault

One last thing...check out the Honor Roll. For those new to track, a swell pair of Daves (Figi and Lehmann) maintain a list of the best track performances from throughout the state in each event. The list is updated almost daily. If you look through the current list, you'll find our athletes pop up in a few places. Visit www.wisconsintrackonline.com and look on the right side for Honor Roll links. And then look around for other things there as well...Dave Figi takes great picutres at meets all over the state.
