COLLEGE PLACE – The Waitsburg boys' track team came away with the team title at the final 2B District 9 meet of the year here on May 3. And for the Cardinal girls, Emily Adams won all three of her events.

Adams won the 800 meters, 1600 meters and triple jump events. Her 1600-meter time of five minutes, 28.5 seconds was a personal record, and also broke her own school record by 1.5 seconds.

On the boys' side, Landon Callas continued his dominance in the hurdles, winning both the 110 and 300 meter events. His 110 time of 16.44 seconds was a personal record. Nick Kitselman was second in the 110 hurdles, and also PR'd with a time of 17.8 seconds.

"Landon in the 300 hurdles is tough right now," said Waitsburg coach Jeff Bartlow. "All four of our hurdlers (Callas, Kitselman, TJ Morrison and Cameron Terry) will get us points in the district championships next week. So, this event is so important."

Travis Crockett also got two individual wins in College Place, sweeping the 100 and 200-meter sprint events. His 200-meter time of 23.49 seconds was a personal record. Crockett was second in the high jump.

This was a big day for Travis," said Bartlow. "He has struggled a bit of late and he kinda busted out today. Nice to see."

Crockett, Callas, Kitselman and Joe Leamy also got a win in the 4x100 relay event. And Skylar Wood got a win in the 800-meter race.

In the throwing events, Brandon Penner took second in the discus and fourth in javelin. Zion Branson was second in the shot put and Mark Montgomery took third in discus. Branson's put of 43 feet, 1½ inches was a personal record.

The Cardinals also got a standout performance from Dylan Knowles in the shot put. His PR throw of 41 feet, ½ inch was good for third place, and beat his previous best throw by four feet.

Mascall Wins 100 Meters for Dayton

Dayton's Angela Mascall won the 100-meter sprint and took second in the 200 meters at the District 9 meet in College Place on May 3. Her time of 13.39 in the 100 was a personal record.

She also anchored the third-place 4x100 meter relay team, which also included Paige Aukerman, Angie Dedloff and Emily McFarland.

McFarland got a win for Dayton in the long jump event, and Alexus Wanlarbkam was second in the 100 meter hurdles.

On the boys' side for Dayton, Cal Martin was second in the javelin with a personal record throw of 159 feet, six inches.
