Kearney, who had won 11 years in a row and 2nd in 2005, was never a factory in the boy's Class A team title finishing in a tie for 5th. Noah Keller threw, from Kearney, threw the shot put over 62'.

Three athletes gave us some of the best performances in the history of Nebraska track. Sarah Lyons ended up with state or meet reoords in the 100, 200, and 400. She has given us some unbelieveables performances in the past four years. Aaron Brandt broke all-time and meet reoords in the 110 highs at 14.02 and 37.282 in the inter. hurdles. Lukas Hulett had the best 400 of all time this year with a 46.98.

In the Class D boy's race, Falls City tied Axtell with 52 points. Loomis was 4th with 33. Lance Thorell won the 110 highs and 300 inter. hurdles. He was 4th in the long jump. He was also a member of the 400 meter relay team that got 2nd. Other members were Aaron Kimberly, AJ Lindstrom and Corey Morton.

Loomis girls had two 6th place finishers with Kylie Gabriel in the shot put and the 1600 meter relay.

In Class B girls, Holdrege soph Jena Isaacson was 4th in the high hurdles. The Holdrege boys and girls had solid efforts but were competing in a solid Class B field this year.

Mallory Murdoch of Southern Valley was 2nd in the highs and 5th in the lows in the girls Class C events. She is a freshman.

John, it's about time you represented southern valley. Murdoch, a freshman, doing that well is great. Can't wait to see what she does the rest of her career. Did any of the Boehler boys ever go to state track? How did they do? Just wanted to know a little state track history.

Bryce went in the pole vault. Didn't place. John was in the 2 mile relay and placed 6th when they only gave five places. Bill Horwart, David Witte and David Davenport were on the relay.
