Laurel's boys and girls track and field teams came away with team titles at Saturday's Sunshine Meet at the Laurel Sports Complex. While the Locomotives were presumptive favorites amongst a crowd of Class B and Class C schools, there were several athletes to hit their respective state qualifying marks.
Laurel's Jakob Webinger and Jack Waddell had already qualified in the 100- and 200-meter dash, respectively, but they came away with individual victories on Saturday. Webinger didn't lower his season-best time in the 100, finishing in 11.24 seconds. His season best is 10.96, which is currently Montana's fastest time regardless of class.
Waddell cruised to a victory in the 200, coming just shy of his season-best time. Waddell also ran legs on Laurel's 4x100- and 4x400-meter relay teams, which both finished first.
The Red Lodge boys finished in second on Saturday, thanks in large part to the efforts of senior Jay Jetmore. Jetmore qualified for the State B meet in the 400-meter dash with his winning time of 51.49 seconds. Jetmore also placed second in the 100, third in the pole vault and ran on both second-place Red Lodge relay teams.
Jetmore's teammates Corby Mann and Spencer Jacobsen also had individual victories at the Sunshine Meet. Both Mann and Jacobsen came up just shy of State B qualifying marks.Mann won the discus with a throw 133-00, the shot put with a toss of 41-10.50 and Jacobsen won the pole vault at 12-00.
Reed Point-Rapelje senior Chase Keating swept the jumping events on Saturday afternoon. Keating, who has qualified for the State C meet in the triple jump, came just shy of becoming a State C qualifier in the long jump. He won the long jump with a leap of 20 feet, 3 inches, the triple jump at 41-03.75 and the high jump at 5-08.
The Laurel girls had multiple qualifiers on Saturday afternoon as part of their team title. Gracey Willis won both the long jump and triple jump, qualifying for the State A meet in the latter with a leap of 35-01.25. Her triple jump mark is now the best in Class A to date.
A pair of 800-meter runners hit the State A qualifying standard, as Carly Cook and Grace Timm both secured a spot at the state meet in May. Cook finished first in 2:23.82 and Timm second in 2:24.66. Keeli Harris, Class A's top javelin thrower, didn't quite hit a personal best but won the javelin with a throw of 117-11.
The Laurel girls swept the relay races and qualified for the State A meet in the 4x400-meter relay with a time of 4:09.42, the top time in Class A this season.
Big Timber's girls finished runner-up Saturday behind multiple individual champions. Junior Alyssa Boshart won the 100 in 12.92 seconds. She qualified for the State B meet and ran Class B's second-fastest time this season. Boshart also won the 100-meter hurdles in 16.86, which did not qualify for the state meet but is also No. 2 in Class B this season.
Class B's top high jumper didn't disappoint, as Big Timber junior Emily Cooley cleared 5-00 to win. Her season best is 5-02. Natalie Wood added a victory in the 1,600-meter run in 5:36.17 but just narrowly missed the State B qualifying standard. The Big Timber 4x400-meter relay team missed the State B qualifying standard by less than one second after finishing in second place in 4:20.78.
