Kudos To Trenton Track Teams

We’re going to keep this week’s edition of the Pick of the Week short and to the point.

Why?

Well, it’s because the forecast, for once this season, looks favorable and the state playoffs are about to get under way in both baseball and softball—the district round is slated to start with pre-district competition Tuesday, while the rest of the round wraps up on Friday, in a few cases, and Saturday, in most cases.

We don’t want to jinx the weather so let’s not spend a lot of time rambling about how teams may come in with less games than normal under their belts, thus tipping the scale to more experienced baseball and softball teams this season more than usual, and get right to the point.

Hold up, first of all, lets take a second to congratulate the boys and girls track squads from who capped off a great regular season with a strong showing against very tough competition in the regional round of the state tourney last week.

The boys finished the day in eighth place overall, while the girls wound up in 13th place at the end of the day.

Strong performances were turned in by the entire team, but Kali Sclater, Morgan Labert, Barbara Czarnecki and the 4x200-meter relay team of Kara Argue, Marissa Rowland, Gabby Concord and Kali Sclater were stellar.

On the boy’s side, the relay team of Jacob Schoon, Kurtis Brushaber, Tyler Hamilton and Keegan Biegalskifor qualified for the state meet June 4. Terez Smith (hurdles and high jump was also stellar, while Jeremy Horst, Keegan Biegalski, Tim Reeber, Norvis Smith and Gabe Wykle also placed at the event for the Trojans.

Way to go Trojans Track!

Now, let’s look at some playoff baseball and softball games coming up this week.

The baseball team begins its quest for a state title June 4 at Carlson, while the girls also start the district round of the state tourney June 4 at Carlson.

Trenton will host the soccer district tournament this week. The Trojans play host to Carelton-Airport on Tuesday at 6 p.m.
