The boys placed third at the Conference Championship meet on Saturday.  The day started off well for us when TJ Jackson jumped a new personal best by over a foot (21-9.5) in the long jump.  It was his first jump, and it ended up winning the event.  Soon after that, our 4x100M relay of Eric Gerber, Andrew Steinwold, Sam Howard and TJ Jackson broke our school record for the second time this season with a 43.18.  They're looking to qualify for state next week and better that time again.  PR's were all over, as Henry Mynatt got season PR's in the 3200 (9:31) and the 1600 (4:27).  Sam Howard took second in the 400 with a lifetime best 49.31, only one tenth away from our school record, and in what our hurdles coach John Brumund-Smith called, "the ugliest race he's seen all season," Andrew Steinwold got a season PR in the 300M hurdles with a 39.66, well on his way to qualifying for state.  Andrew Farver had a lifetime PR of 2:00.04 in the 800M and will be an integral part of our 4x800M relays chances to qualify.  The Scouts had some downs, too, but with what we've seen from the team this season, and the efforts we got on Saturday, we should be able to send a lot of guys to Charleston next week.

Last night the boys captured third place at the Lake County Championship Meet, despite being without their top-ranked thrower and point scorer, Matt Miller.  The meet started off great with the 4x800M relay racing a new season best by over 8 seconds, running 8:12.  This was followed by a third-place finish in the 4x100M relay.  Anchor leg TJ Jackson was experiencing some knee pain, so triple jumper Ryan Miller filled in and ran a great race.  Henry Mynatt placed second in the two mile on the windy, cold night, then returned to run a great time in the 1600.  Sam Howard and Andrew Steinwold ran their way to County Championships in the 400 and 300 hurdles, respectively--Howard winning his race by almost two seconds.  John-Michael Boyle PR'd in the long jump with a 20'3.25 and placed second, while Ryan Miller finished third in the triple jump with a new season PR of 42'5.  The 4x4 capped the night with a great race and a 3 second PR of 3:27. CLICK HERE FOR FULL RESULTS

The Frosh/Soph Conference meet is Thursday at Lake Zurich, and we will be hosting the NSC Conference Championships on Saturday, May 15, beginning at 10:00AM.

The boys won what turned out to be a closer meet than expected.  The day started off well with a win by the 4x800 relay, led by Henry Mynatt’s 1:59 split, followed by a record-breaking 4x100 performance by TJ Jackson, Andrew Steinwold, Sam Howard and Eric Gerber with a time of 43.5.  TJ also won the long jump with a 20’4.  Sam also won the 400M in 50.0 and Steinwold won the 300M hurdles with a season PR of 39.9.  Henry Mynatt came back again to win the 800 with a 2:01, followed closely by Andrew Farver who PR’d for the season with a 2:02.  On the field side, an injured Matt Miller still won the shot put, but did not compete in the discus.  This gave junior Andrew Shaw an opportunity to step up, which he did with a win in the discus, throwing 128’6.  Ryan Miller won the Triple Jump and the trio of Chris Stolzman, James Shockey and Nick Palermo swept the high jump.  The meet came down to the final event, the 4x400, where the team of Steinwold, Click, Hargitt and Howard ran away with the win.  The Frosh/Soph team competes on Wednesday at Antioch’s Harland Invite, and the Varsity has the County Championships on Friday at Deerfield.

Yesterday, the boys defeated Libertyville(93-53) and Mundelein (108-37).  Lake Forest’s 4x100M team of TJ Jackson, Andrew Steinwold, Sam Howard and Eric Gerber ran a season PR of 43.7, only 0.1 off our school record.  Henry Mynatt also ran a season best 9:35 in the 3200M run.  Andrew Steinwold ran a new season PR of 40.1 in the 300M hurdles, followed closely by new hurdle team recruit, Senior Kyle Donovan (43.4).  Ryan Crilly ran a strong 4:51 mile and Taylor Click won the 800M in 2:03.  On the Field side, TJ Jackson won the Long Jump with a jump of 20’8.5, but scratched a much farther jump.  Ryan Miller won the Triple Jump with a 41’3. Junior Matt Miller has been setting season PR’s each meet, and yesterday was no different.  He won the shot put with a 51’9.5 (season PR is 53’3) and then crushed his own discus best by throwing a 164’9, which places him in the 9th ranked spot in the State.  Our next meet will be Monday May 2nd at Warren.  Please come watch our final dual meet of the season.
