Falls City Sacred Heart’s boys’ track team, many of whom competed in the state basketball tournament less than two weeks prior, captured the team championship at last Thursday’s season opening Pioneer Conference Indoor Track Meet, held for the first time at Concordia University in Seward.
The Irish boys racked up 107 points to defeat second place Freeman by 20 points. Sterling was a distant third with 66 points.
FCSH junior Yianni Haralabidis was responsible for 34 of those 107 points with medals in all four events he entered. Haralabidis was first in the 60-meter dash with a time of 7.2 seconds, second in the long jump with a distance of 19-feet, 10-inches and third in both the triple jump (41-feet, 10.75-inches) and 1600-meter relay.
Lane Barnhill captured gold in both the 200 and 400-meter runs with times of 23.7 and 53.1, respectively. The Irish senior also ran the anchor leg of the second-place 3200-meter relay team; senior Clay Finck finished third in the 60 (7.2) and 200 (24.5), and ran in the 3200-meter relay; senior Will Burenheide finished fifth in the 60-meter hurdles and also helped the 1600-meter team to their third-place finish, as did sophomore Sawyer Kean; junior Sean Strasheim grabbed gold in the pole vault with a height of 12 feet and was the fourth member of the 4×400 relay; senior Matt Mullins finished two spots below Strasheim in the pole vault.
Junior Chaz Dunn finished in third place in the long jump with distance of 18 feet, 8.5 inches and was a member of the 4×800 relay; sophomore Austin Malone was second in the triple jump (41-04.5) and along with senior Thomas Froeschl rounded out the 4×800 team.
Junior Jared Fiegener finished sixth in the shot put and freshman Henry Arnold was fourth in the 800-meter run.
The Lady Irish finished two points ahead of Friend for second place, but were 63 points behind Freeman’s first-place total of 122.
Freshman Maggie Goltz placed in all four events for FCSH and scored 22 points for the Lady Irish. She earned a gold in the triple jump (32-08.5), bronze in the 400-meter run (1:07.8), was fourth in the long jump and fifth in the 200-meter dash. Kelsi Fouraker, a sophomore, was second in the 800, third in the 3200-meter relay and fourth in the 400-meters.
Junior Elizabeth Magdanz was first in the pole vault with a height of 8-feet, 6-inches, which was exactly one foot better than sister Abby, who tied for second place with senior Elizabeth Railsback of Humboldt-TR-S. The Magdanz sisters also helped the 3200 and 1600-meter relay teams.
Senior Kathryn Bieker was the fourth member of the 4×800 relay and senior Toni Kean and junior Rachel Parrish rounded out the 4×400.
