Day one of the state track meet is in the books! We had three athletes competing today. Rachel Erk just barely missed finals of the 100M dash but ran great with a time of 13.11. In high jump we had BeJae Tesch who cleared the first height of 4'8" but couldn't quite clear the next height which placed her 10th in the state! Sarah Erk we close to clearing the first height couldn't quite get there. You can follow along live at the following website.
