NEW STUFF

Club Relays

Club Relays was a HUGE success, from the endless pasta and breadsticks at Olive Garden to placing 2nd for the men and 4th for the women as a team!

We had four 1st place men's relay finishes:

-Mile: Evan G. Kohl, Evan Routhier, Kevin Dado, and Andre Hessini

-60m hurdles: Hunter Cummings and Matt Laska

-Triple Jump: Hunter Cummings and Peter Van Beek

-Shot Put: Michael Fink and Isaiah West

On the women's side, the best two relays finished in 2nd:

-Shot Put: Lexi Hilton and Laura Canapa

-Triple Jump: Natalie Tufvesson and Emma Dewane

A special shoutout goes to Michael Fink for breaking the meet record and individually winning shot put with a throw of 14.01m. Additionally, the women's 3k was one of the most succesful events, as all three athletes finished with major PRs. The top point scorers for WTC were Peter Van Beek for the men (14.25) and Laura Canapa for the women (5)!

Complete meet results can be found here, member times/splits can be found here, and Luke's amazing photos can be found here.

Authorized Drivers

With larger meets such as Nationals coming up, we NEED more authorized drivers. Every car needs two authorized drivers to be able to travel. On our website, visit the "About" tab and select "Membership". If you scroll down, Step 7 outlines in detail how to become an authorized driver. It doesn't take long to do, and it would help us all out (especially Hanna, Matt, & Evan)!
