4 Events-4 First Places

__Track meet at Panora tonight. It was a nice night. Much better than last night, when it was postponed until tonight. Jeff competed in 4 events and they placed first in all 4 that he was in. His first event was the Shuttle Hurdle relay. This is the first year he has ran hurdles. (Once last year he subbed at a meet) Usually not something kids start as seniors, but we have a couple real good hurdlers and they put Jeff and Darin Newell (his first year to run hurdles too) in to complete the relay team. It was effective, as they set a new meet record tonight. Then he ran the 100 and won. Next was the 400 which he won and set another meet record. After 3 events in a row, he had a break until the 4 x 100 which they won also. It was getting dark by then... hence the blurry picture. He ran the 200 0pen at Friday nights meet, so he wouldn't have 3 in a row. But tonight it was a girl/boy meet, so had girls events between his events to catch his breath. Friday they run at Ankeny against 4A schools, so will have stiffer competition. (We are a 2A school)
