Back to Back!

In resounding fashion, the SJA track and field team defended their OHSAA district title this past weekend over 2nd place Lakewood and 3rd place Magnificat at Lakewood High School.  The point total of 194 was far in advance of Lakewood's 115.

Regardless if it was Wednesday's exceptionally warm weather or Friday's chilly and blustery conditions the Jaguars showed up ready to compete.  All the disciplines contributed to the win, which included wins in 8 different events.  Event winners include; sophomore Brittany Morrison in both the shot put and discus, freshman Ky Williams in both the high jump and 100m hurdles, junior Rachel McGuire in both the 1600 and 800m runs, senior MaryKate Caja in the 300m hurdles, senior Brenna McGrath in the LJ, and the 4 x 200m relay team of Caja, junior Becca Sedlak, junior Gab Leon, and McGrath.

Many more qualified to next week's Amherst Regional by placing in the top 4 in her event.  Other than the winners listed above, the following will also compete next week; McGrath in the 200m dash (4th), freshman Monica Hahn in the 100m (2nd) and 300m hurdles (4th), freshman Bridget McGuire in the pole vault (2nd), junior Nicole Rave in the discus (2nd), Ann Conroy in shot put (4th), senior Jill Bresnahan in the 3200m run (3rd), Sedlak in the 400m dash (3rd), senior Helen Steve in the 1600m run (4th), senior Emilee Armbruster in the 800m run (4th), junior Alesha Vovk in the high jump (2nd), the 4 x 100m relay team (2nd) of junior Mackenzie Dorin, sophomore Sarah Stottner, Leon, and sophomore Jenea Adams, the 4 x 400m relay team (2nd) of McGrath, junior Maddie Zimmerman, Armbruster, and Sedlak, the 4 x 800m relay team (2nd) of Rachel McGuire, freshman Anna Farris, Zimmerman and Armbruster.
