The Hartley-Melvin-Sanborn girls' track and field team had a limited lineup during the Unity Christian Invitational, as several athletes were attending the state FFA convention. But those who were able to compete on April 11 at Orange City recorded solid performances.
Jasmine Lux scored 18 of the Hawks' 24 team points. The senior was H-M-S's lone champion, winning the 100-meter dash in :13.26. She was runner-up in the 800-meter run, completing that race in 2:32.94.
Other individual results for H-M-S were Frankie Mohni, fifth in the 100-meter hurdles (:21.44); Kamryn Ebel, fifth in the 800-meter run (2:59.05) and sixth in the 3000-meter run (14:35.60); and Eliza Tewes, sixth in the discus (68'10"). All three are freshmen.
The Hawks also placed in two JV relay races. Madyson Torres, Kelly Buhrmann, Jamie Diaz and Megan Otto placed third in the 4x200 (2:19.13), and Torres, Buhrmann, Luna Alonso and Otto finished fourth in the 4x100 (1:05.22).
MOC-Floyd Valley scored 216 points to win the girls' team title. The Dutch were followed by Unity Christian (125), Western Christian (106), Storm Lake (54), H-M-S (24) and West Sioux (21).
