BOYCEVILLE (WQOW)- The 2023 Boyceville track and field meet produced more stellar performances from area athletes across nine teams on Thursday.
Glenwood City’s JJ Williams talks about strong meet in Boyceville
Glenwood City took home the boys team title with a score of 155, 18.5 points ahead of second place Grantsburg. The Hilltoppers were highlighted boys discus champion Brady Klatt who took first with a throw of 141-7, which at first was too far for the officials to mark with just one tape measure. His teammate JJ Williams won three total events, the 1600m, 400m and 4×400 relay.
Durand-Arkansaw’s Kendall Hagness did not compete in all of her primary events on Thursday but still had another record-breaking day. She picked up wins in the 100m and 200m while also turning a school record in the 400m in 59.23 seconds.
While Hagness swept all three of her events, she believes there is still room for improvement.
“This is probably only my second time running the 400 outdoors,” Hagness said. “The 100, that wasn’t exactly where I’d like it to be, but I haven’t ran it that much this year so I’m just kind of getting back into it all.”
Spring Valley senior Lydia Hannack broke the school’s girls long jump record with a leap of 16’4. She finished second place just 1/2 inch behind Elmwood/Plum City’s Isabella Forster.
Grantsburg won the girls team title with a score of 119. Prairie Farm finished second with 114.5 and Durand-Arkansaw finished fifth.
