Burwell Girls Win Burwell Invite
The Lady Longhorns brought home their fifth consecutive Burwell Invite Championship on Friday, April 16, 2010. "It was a great effort by all of the girls; we scored in 16 different events and in 5 of those we placed 2 or more girls, that doesn't happen very often. The girls are really working hard in practice and it is starting to show," said Coach Carson.
The following brought home gold medals for the Lady Longhorns: Lauren Garner - 800 Meter Run, Megan Cassidy - Pole Vault, Caitlin Garner - 100 Hurdles (Meet Record 16.9), Anna Owen - Shot Put, and Makenna Brunken - Long Jump. Second place finishers were Lauren Garner - 1600 Meter Run, Sydney Weber - High Jump, and Kelli Taylor - Pole Vault. Third place medals were won by Caitlin Garner - 300 Hurdles, Jillian Spencer - 100 Meter Dash, and Kali Swett - Pole Vault. Fourth Place went to: Ashley McMullen - Triple Jump & 200 Meter Dash, and Katie McClintic - 300 Hurdles & 100 Meter Dash. Fifth Place finisher was Michela Hogmire in the Long Jump. Sixth Place finishers were Anna Owen - Discus, Makenna Brunken - 200 Meter Dash, and Cecelia Carson - 3200 Meter Run. In relays the 4X100 team (Makenna Brunken, Caitlin Garner, Jillian Spencer, and Rachelle Plock) placed 2nd, the 4X400 team (Katie McClintic, Rachelle Plock, Makenna Brunken, and Ashley McMullen) placed 3rd and the 4X800 team (Rebecca Gaukel, Karly Vodehnal, Emily Plock and Rachelle Plock) placed 5th. The Lady Longhorns will travel to Atkinson Thursday for the West Holt Invite. I would also like to thank the many volunteers that helped make the Burwell Invite a success.
