Who are some runners from the area who you belive will make it to state? I know Ada has a sweet 4 by 4 team and a real nice 200 runner in daniel clum. Also that kid they call sloth is definetly a contender. It should be a great year for the ol track team up at Ada!!!

Horstman from Cory Rawson in both hurdles.. Spallinger from P-G has a good chance in all four of his events.. Butler from Liberty Benton i would almost guarantee, although he did have knee surgery. Don't really know anything about his recovery but if he does recover well he'll be there again for sure.... Coppler from Arlington.. as far as relay's i dont know much about them, Pandora's 4x2 has been lookin pretty good so far.

Has anyone got any updates on how Tim Sanders is doing after his fb injury/surgery? I'd have to have him in my list for hurdles rep for Jefferson again in his Sr year.

Slicer, I appreciate you asking.

Tim has currently only run one race of each hurdles, but won both @ the columbus grove invitational. 15.1 in the 110 hurdles and 41.7 in the 300's. Those are pretty good opening times for his season given he wasnt allowed to run for 5 months. He is looking pretty good right now and will drop the times as he races em more. It has been a long rehab road for him since ACL sugery, but he is on track to being back at State this season.

That's good to hear, wiser & thanks for filling me in.......I KNOW that it has to be difficult for him not running every meet, but, we know what the most important part is...(beyond his being fully recovered 1st) I'll be continually backing him.....Go get it when you can, Tim!!! Best wishes to you & Ill be looking for you on that podium!!! thumbup1.gif

Girl's high jump has great potential. Boggs and Geise from Delphos and Kaufman from Ottoville are jumping at the 5'2'' to 5'3'' level. The Ottoville 4x800 team is putting up great numbers and they will not be tested until they get to state and the same deal for the St. John's boys 4x100.

DEF Jacob and Blake!

Blake is outstanding in the mile and when he gets around better people he will pace himself better.

Jacob paces himself then kicks it in and speeds right passed everyone.

As of right Now Ej Laing is ranked 7th in Discus in Division 3 so very much potential for state

Great to hear about Blake & Jacob.....Have been wondering the last few weeks about Jacob & how he was doing.....He's a great all 'round runner....Does he still do any distance runs/x-country? And, as always, best wishes to EJ too! smile.gif

Versailles girls will look to qualify a lot for state...They have quite a few relays fighting for spots along with some strong individual performers.



On the boys side, the 4X4 is looking to move on and they're hungry to break the school record of 3:23. The 4X2 and 4X8 will need to pick it up to make the trip to C-Bus.

The girl's 4X8 ran a 9:23 for the win at regionals to advance to state...And they're still looking to improve their time. Christine Borchers also advanced in shot put with a 43 something throw to win.

The boys 4X8 squeaked in at 4th place with an 8:14. They'll be looking to knock that time down at C-Bus.

Butler is already in top form this early in the season. He just won the state indoor title last Saturday setting a new meet record in the 800 meter at the University of Akron. He'll be the favorite again this year to win the state outdoor title in the 800.

I know that the Bluffton boy's 4x400 team consisting of Lucas Harnish, David Moser, David Yoder, and Zachary Guagenti was within one hundreth of a second of making the state finals, as someone fell in front of Moser on the homestretch, so they will look to improve this year.

Also from Bluffton is Lydia Guagenti in the HJ (5'06" already this year), 400 (59), and 4x2 and 4x4 relays with Sarah Stratton, Lindsay Bassitt, and Hannah Chappell-Dick. The girls will have to really step it up this year after losing their star sprinter, Bonnie, however.

USV's boys team is looking good thus far in the season. 6-0. individuals on the team who stand out and could possibly go to state are tommy stienberger. he is long jumping in the 20 to 21 feet range and colby salyer who is doing well in the 200 with times right around 23.2. On the girls side there is a freshman who is looking very promising also. Aspen Rose who went undefeated in the 100 hurdles during her 8th grade year ran in the low 26 second range. overall there is potentially a great track season for both the girls and boys track teams at USV this year.

At 23.2 Salyer will be lucky to place at the district meet, let alone go to the state meet. I like the kid, but last year D-III boys runners had to be under 22.3 to get to the finals in the state meet; he's a strong runner, but I doubt he has the 'raw speed' you need to place much higher than the NWCC conference meet.

The WG boys have been very competitive so far, but they haven't really been tested yet (but did rack-up 195 points in the lack-luster Orange Division of the Versailles Invitational) - we'll see how they fare at the WG invite on April 23 and the Cardinal Relays on May 1.

The WG girls should be strong all the way to state with strong relays (the 4x200 was a regional qualifier last year with all runners returning) and strong field events (Morgan Horn - PV, LJ, HJ; Abbey Gray - LJ; Ivy Horn - HJ, LJ; Brooke Shaw - throws) and sprints (Ivy Horn - 100, 200, 100 H and Abbey Gray 100, 200, 300 H). Each of the girls listed has the potential to place in the state meet ... we'll see what happens over the next 8 weeks ... good luck to the Tigers!
