First Time Since 2013

The Ord High School track and field teams brought home the team titles from the conference meet last Friday in St. Paul.  This was the first time since 2013 that the teams did this and only the second time in school history.  “It is pretty hard to win one conference title but winning both of them is really special”, Coach Derry Trampe commented.  “I was so proud of the way our kids competed on a very windy and cloudy day.  We had a lot of personal best performances on the day, and we had some kids step up for the team to help win these meets.  It is a testament to how hard these kids work every day and their commitment to their teammates and school.  I could not be prouder of our kids and the way they performed.”  The Chanticleer girls won the team title 92.5 points to hold off Central City (81) for the title.  Doniphan-Trumbull finished third with 67 points.  Rounding out the team scoring were: Arcadia-Loup City (63), Centura (62), St. Paul (55.5), Wood River (51), Ravenna (35), and Gibbon (20).  The boys scored 124 points to claim the title over runner-up St. Paul.  The Wildcats scored 109.3 points on the day.  Central City was a distant third with 82 points.  Rounding out the team scoring were: Centura (65), Wood River (55.3), Doniphan-Trumbull (40), Arcadia-Loup City (40), Ravenna (8), and Gibbon (3.3).

The girls won the title with only one first place finish on the day.  Bringing home the lone gold medal was the 4 X 100 relay team of Lexi Vancura, Britta Deden, Kaidence Wilson, and Natalie Williams.  The quartet combined to finish in a time of 53.09.  The Chanticleers did have several runner-up finishes in the meet to boost their point total.  Second place medals were won by Britta Deden in the 100 HH (16.81/16.35), Jocelyn Hinrichs in the 300 LH (PB 52.08), Marin Reilly in the shot put (35’ 9”), Lexi Vancura in the ling jump (15’ 11.75”), and the 4 x 400 relay team of Maggie Fischer, Kaidence Wilson, Claire Cargill, and Natalie Williams (4:32.73).  Third place medals were won by Maggie Fischer in the 400 (66.28), Jocelyn in the 100 HH (PB 17.59/17.44), Lexi Vancura in the triple jump (33’ 0.5”), and Kaidence Wilson in the high jump (4’ 9”).  Fourth place points were earned by Maggie Fischer in the 200 (28.60/28.25) and Brookelynn Fox in the pole vault (8’ 0”).  Finishing in fifth place were Natalie Williams in the 200 (PB 28.01/28.32), Britta Deden in the 300 LH (53.60), and the 4 X 800 relay team of Piper Whited, Aracely Negrete, Jamie Vavra, and Izzy Jeffres (12:51.27).  Sixth place medals were won by Piper Whited in the 3200 (PB 13:55.81) and the pole vault (7’ 0”), Lillie Shoemaker in the shot put (PB 33’ 3.5”), Marin Reilly in the discus (99’ 10”), and Natalie Williams in the long jump (15’ 7.75”).
