The Lake Havasu High School track and field team hosted its final meet of the season on Wednesday, the 14th Annual Lake Havasu Last Chance meet. With this being the final home meet of the season, the Knights hosted Senior Night after the 400 meter races for their 25 seniors.
I think we had 21 that walked and a few more that forgot to do their speeches. But I think 24 or 25 overall and Im proud of them, coach Tanner Kelly said. In the last two years, theyve come so far. I mean some people were nervous about their events, so not doing track that came out here and now a lot have a chance to make state, so Im very proud of their effort.
Many athletes set a PR during the meet as they work toward qualifying for state.
Giovanni Sierras PRd in the pole vault, Presley Evans PRd in all three events today, Sayre Farley PRd her event, the girls 4x100 broke the record again as they dropped down to 50.71 now, Kelly said. I know Sylvan (Osman) threw a big throw in the discus and PRd by 10 feet. Its just been a very good day for us.
Senior Evans set a new personal best in all three of her events and even though she was happy about that, she is sad that the season is coming to a close.
I PRd in the 100 meter hurdles, the 4x100, and the 300 hurdles, so Im pretty happy, she said. Its definitely sad, but Im hoping to continue on in college. So, Ill keep doing my thing, but I will miss the team. Ill miss the social aspect of everybody, because were all really tight.
The Knights will have one more chance before sectionals at the Becky Matthews Last Chance Invite at Desert Vista on Wednesday.
Some of the best teams and athletes in the state are going to be there so well definitely need a little bit of improvement to secure a spot. Some of our events, were right on the edge of qualification, Kelly said. At this time of year, every school is running their PRs, theyre all running their last chance event so we need to make sure we come out with a good week of practice, listen to their coaches for the preparation and then put on a good show next Wednesday. Well play the waiting game for the state to calculate and tabulate which individuals go to state. Im satisfied with the work that the kids have done this year.
