This is such a great way to see track and field events. Wish they had had this back in 2001 when my son ran the 400 hurdles.

Nice anchor leg for Piper Donaghu. Had her around 57.8, and Ella Donaghu around 60 flat.

couple girls go under 2:20 in Heat 2 of the girls 800m.

The fast heat (Alexa Efraimson, Piper Donaghu, Tess Michaelson, Paige Rice, Hannah Derby, etc.) up next! Maybe a new US#1 on the way?


EDIT: Nope, not US#1. 2:09.36 for Efraimson.

AND add a US#3 in the Boys Hammer Throw for Max Lydum (Central OR)

Ella Donaghu (Grant OR) scored the meets second US#1 mark with her 4:31.37 win in the 1500m. Lauren Perry (Richland WA) was also US#5 in the race in 4:33.70.

In the boys 1500m, runner-up Elijah Armstrong (Pocatello ID) moved up to #6 in the nation in 3:55.35. Matthew Maton won with a new the meet record, but didn't set a new PR.

US Top-10 tally so far:

US#1's: 2
US#2's: 2
US#5's: 1
US#6's: 1
US#10's: 1


The top event (Girls 800m) still 70 minutes away.

Also, more stats -

Boys WA#1 marks: 5 (well, 6 are listed, but Nathan Hale ran a faster DMR at Pasco today)
Girls WA#1 marks: 3

Boys OR#1 marks: 6
Girls OR#1 marks: 5

Boys ID#1 marks: 1
Girls ID#1 marks: 2

Shoutout to Nathan Richards, a former DyeStat poster and R.A. Long grad (rival school in my hometown) who is running in the 10k.

EDIT: He won the 10k. Nice job!

Nice anchor by Roseburg FTW! Winning time was 10:29.91

Apparently 4:19 anchor for Bloom (think they finished third, but they got DQ'd for unsportsmanlike conduct)

3:10.1 to open for Eastlake
then a 51.1 for the 400m leg

Lincoln caught up on the first lap of the 800m leg

about a 61? on the first lap of the 800m leg for Eastlake

6:01.6 on the handoff for Lincoln, but they cut away before I saw Eastlake cross (I'm guessing around 6:02, he wasn't far behind)

63 on the opening lap for Lincoln's anchor, but settled into ~70s pace on lap 2

Boys on the line now.

I don't expect this one to be nearly as stacked... Gig's top trio having just finished the 3k only 20 minutes ago.

Great anchor legs.

4:44.6 and 4:55.6 for their 1600's, according to the announcer.

11:54.19 Camas (US#1)!
11:54.74 Grant (US#2)!

10:30 at 500m to go... both look like they are going well under 12 today

3:36 and 3:47 through 1200m
