State Meet Final Update


With the weather holding out for a majority of Class AA boys discus and girls shot the showdown between Logan Hussung and Luke Johnson in discus did not disappoint.

Johnson took the early lead at 177'3" with his second throw in Prelims only to be bested by Hussung on his first throw in finals. Hussung had an outstanding series of throws with 4 throws over 170' and three over 175'

Kim Hovey of Red Wing avenged her discus loss to Maggie Ewen yesterday with a wire to wire win in the girls shot put. Her mark of 43'0" in shot was enough to hold off Ewen and Emily Lesser of Maple Grove


In Class A Shawn Johnson of Eveleth Gilbert left little suspense with a season best mark of 176'4" in discus in pre-lims. Johnson landed another season best of 178'4" to win the Class A discus by over 20 feet.
