Bulldog throwers and vaulters continue to shine

By Missy Klatt

AMERY – Tuesday, May 1st had the Bulldog track team in Amery to compete against sixteen other teams. Head coach, Corey Day was happy with their performance, stating, “With 17 teams competing it was a very competitive field and Boyceville yielded many personal bests.”

Top on that list of personal bests was Brandon Kenefick who vaulted into second place with a personal best of 13’. Paulina Weinke had a season best throw of 109’4” in the discus for fourth place. She also took third the shot put with a throw of 32’7”. Emily Voelker had a personal best in pole vault with a jump of 8’.

For freshman, Nathan Corr it was a set of personal bests with a 5:11 in the 1600m and an 11:22 in the 3200m.

“Many other athletes and relays improved last night. This what we needed as we move towards conference,” commented Day.

Colfax Meet

On Thursday, May 3rd the Bulldogs moseyed down the road to Colfax for a meet consisting mainly of conference teams. 

Coach Day gave kudos to Emily Voelker saying she ran an impressive split in the 4x800m relay to help her team place fourth in the event and then followed that up with a second place finish in the 400m. 

Once again the lady throwers had a good afternoon with Haley Wold winning the shot put and teammate Paulina Weinke taking second. In the discus it was Weinke in second with Wold in fourth and Satina Chilson in sixth.

On the boys’ side, the 4x800m relay team consisting of Cade Klefstad, Rian Corr, Steven Rasmussen, and Nathaniel Chich placed second. Once again Kenefick won the pole vault competition.

“I thought we ran hard but were maybe a little sore and tired coming off Tuesday’s meet,” stated Coach Day.

The Bulldogs have an easy week coming up with just one meet on Thursday the 10th when they host the Larry Z- Battle of the Small Schools Meet.
