Subsection Track & Field Meet


A great night for the Nighthawks at the Subsection 17A meet! The top 4 in each event advance to the Section 5A meet next Wednesday at St. John's University in Collegeville. Freshman Erika Swanson qualified in two events, running personal and team record times and taking 3rd in the 1600m (5:30.12) and a surprise 2nd in the 800m (2:30.91).

Freshman Drake Fraser ran a blazing PR by 5-1/2 seconds in the 800m (team record of 2:18.37), barely edged off the podium by just a couple tenths of a second and taking 9th place overall. He's pictured here on the home stretch of the 800m run, with family cheering behind.

Other personal records were set by freshman Will Fuglestad in the shot put (team record of 29'8"), sophomore Jake Bendickson in the 400m (60.93), and senior Ellie Lee in the 1600m (6:31.40).
