WIAA State Championships - Day 1

The state's best came together Friday evening at the Division 1 WIAA State Championships at UW-LaCrosse. The Madison Memorial Spartans were represented by four of our best athletes competing in nine total events on the weekend. Our sprinters and hurdlers competed in trials looking to be in the top ten to advance to finals on Saturday. While the field event athletes had trials and finals altogether on Friday.

Corinne F competed in the discus looking to defend her 2012 state title. She threw 143' 10 in the trials and it stood the test winning her 2nd consecutive STATE TITLE in the discus by over 13'. Corinne will return to competition on Saturday competing in the division 1 girls shot put competition.

Daurice F had a busy day competing in the 110m hurdles, long jump, and 300m hurdles. The long jump was his only final on the day. He jumped 23' 2.75" in trials to lead by 2" going into finals and his jump stood up to give him his 1st STATE CHAMPIONSHIP. Daurice also ran the 110m hurdles in 14.81 qualifying as the second best hurdler for finals and ran 39.45 in the 300m hurdles to be the third best qualifier in that event. Daurice will compete in both the 110m and 300m hurdles on Saturday attempting to add to his medal collection.

Jester W competed in both the 100m and 200m dash trials on Friday. His time of 11.12 in the 100m dash has him as the top qualifier for the finals. In the 200m dash he ran 22.11 as the third best qualifier. Jester will compete in both the 100m and 200m finals on Saturday looking for his first hardware in WIAA Track & Field.

Marissa H also competed in the 100m and 200m dash trials for the girls. She ran 13.09 in the 100m dash for the 11th best time in state missing the finals by one spot. In the 200m dash Marissa ran 26.86 for the 12th best time also missing out on finals. Although it was a difficult experience missing out on the finals it was a great opportunity for Marissa to end her amazing Spartan Track & Field experience on the biggest stage at the State Championships.

Saturday will be another busy day for the Spartans as we look to add to our TWO STATE CHAMPIONS from Friday evening. Follow the action at www.foxsportswisconsin.com.

Saturday morning a small group of Madison Memorial girls competed in the Monona Grove Invite hoping to make one last big splash before the Conference Meet on Tuesday.

JV & Frosh City Championships @ Lussier Stadium

The Madison Memorial track & field team returned to Lussier Stadium Wednesday night to compete in the JV and Frosh City Championships hosted by Madison LaFollette. The nice weather stuck around for another night and the jv and frosh kids showed their appreciation by performing at a high level. It is always fun to see our team compete at this meet and look for those athletes who will be competing on the varsity team on the near future. We encourage the athletes who competed tonight to dedicate themselves to make the big next step to improve their PRs and become varsity level athletes. Some of this work will happen in the coming days, much of this work will happen over the summer and in the off season. Which city champions from tonight can score points at the varsity meet next year? Who else will be able to help our team take the next step to be City Varsity Champions?

At tonight's meet athletes who placed in the top 5 of their event scored points for the team. Team places were kept track of in both JV and frosh competitions. On the girls side the JV team finished in 3rd place with 42 points, LaFollette scored 86 points and in the Frosh competition the girls scored 62 points to finish in 2nd place behind West's 83 points. On the boys side the JV team scored 93 points to take 1st place outdistancing LaFollette who had 75 points and the Frosh scored 87 points also taking 1st place outdistancing West who scored 62 points. Congratulations to the boys team on their JV & Frosh City Team Championships!!

Earning individual City Championships for the girls were:
Frankie F in the JV 100m dash (13.9), Joan M in the Fr 400m dash (1:09.9), Freshman 4x100m relay, Katie H in the Fr 300m hurdles (1:01.0), Kyra H in the Fr 3200m run (13:18.8), and Lindsey K in the JV 3200m run (14:11.1). Their were some field event champions but we don't have complete results yet...we will update when we get them.

Earning individual City Championships for the boys were:
JV 4x800 relay (9:20.6), Fr 4x800 relay (9:53.08), Trevis M in the JV 100m dash (11.5), Fr 4x100m relay (52.1), Calvin J in the Fr 800m run (2:18.0), and Zach H in the Fr 3200m run (11:25.6). Also, field event champions will be added once complete results are available.

Make a goal, set your sights high, and work hard to reach these goals. This is how JV and Frosh competitors become varsity competitors in the future. We have many athletes who competed Tuesday night for varsity that were in this same place of the jv and frosh athletes just a year or two ago. Lots of work in the weight room, multiple miles on the road, and plenty of speed & agility drills have transformed these athletes. Take the next step!

Spartan Invite @ Mansfield Stadium (BOYS)

You know it has been a rough weather season, when coaches think 48 degree weather with only a little rain and a breeze is a nice track & field weather. The weather was much better during the meet then it was in the afternoon and better then many days we have had already this season but we all hold out hope for some more spring weather in the next two weeks. Madison Memorial hosted the Spartan Invitational Friday night at Mansfield Stadium. Twelve of the top teams from around the state joined Madison Memorial to produce multiple state honor roll performances. The team finished with 73 points to finish in a tie for 3rd place. This meet was a great tune up for championship season which begins Tuesday night with the outdoor city championships.

The Madison Memorial boys were led by Track Performer of the Meet Jester W who improved his school record 100m dash (10.67 - FAT) with a victory and won the 200m dash with a 22.08 missing the school record by .02. He was joined in victory by Daurice F who won both the 110m high hurdles (14.79) and long jump (21' 10.5") and Nick M who won the 300m hurdles in a personal best (40.37). Also scoring points for the Spartans were Jonah W 4th in the 1600m run (4:29.81) and the relay teams of the 4x100m 4th place (45.16), sprint medley relay (2,2,4,8) took 6th place (3:53.46), the 4x400m 3rd place (3:37.48), and the 4x800 took 6th (8:44.44).

Waunakee Frosh/Soph @ Waunakee HS

Winter is back...luckily in Waunakee we only got 40's and rain and not the snow that some parts of WI experienced but the Madison Memorial Frosh/Soph simply got out their gloves, hats, and tights and went to work Thursday night. Even in the not ideal weather conditions we had multiple personal bests. Hopefully we get at least one more chance at nice weather but it was great to see so many kids competing regardless of the conditions. The boys team finished in third place and the girls team finished in fourth place. It was nice to see how we compared to other kids our own age. This is going to be a fun group of kids to watch grow and improve over the next 2-3 years of school.

Earning medals for their top three finishes were event winners Natalie S in 100m hurdles (18.19) and Sydney S in the high jump (4' 6"); 2nd place finishers Kyra H in the 1600m run (6:17.29), Sydney S in the 200m dash (29.98), Price R in discus (92' 11") & shot put (33' 7"), and Alex B in long jump (17' 7.5"); 3rd place finishers Claire F in shot put (28' 6.5") & discus (69' 4.5"), Jenna R in the high jump (4' 6"), Robyn B in long jump (13' 9.5"), Skyylah G in triple jump (27' 4.5"), Alec D in discus (84' 11), and the boys 4x100m relay (51.04).

We encourage these freshmen and sophomores to continue to work hard and look for opportunities to improve. Everyone who competed today has the potential to contribute to varsity if they are willing to do the work in the classroom, at the track, and in the weightroom. What can you do to improve? How much can you improve your PR yet this year? Put your mind to improving now and future performances will take care of themselves.
