I know I’m a little late on this. Thoughts on the IHSA state track meet. It was nice to get some people to the day of finals. I was hoping for a better race in the 4×800 but it didn’t happen. The guys had a great season, one of the better 4×800 teams in the area. We could of been better, I let somethings slip. But a conference championship, 1 2nd place in the sectional and 12th in the state. So nice job-Adam Wilkins 3 years to the state meet, Kubicki 2 years, Goff 2 years and he is back, and Brummel a couple trips north. Quentin made it to the finals for the high jump. I know he wanted to clear more than 6′1, but a 9th place finish is great and he has a chance to come back next year. Sam was unable to clear the openig height, but he came a long way from freshman year. We could be back next year but only time will tell. Over all it was a nice few days and I had a good ride home with Sam and Matt. We had a new experience-the poles kept trying to fall off the top of the sub on the interstate, at least three times we had to stop to put them back on top. We finally made it home with the windows down and Matt and I hold onto the tube the poles were in! Another great season for the Wildcats of Salem.
