Girl’s 400 relay and Heitkamp qualify at Fargo Rotary meet
The Lisbon girl’s 400 relay team of Karlene Lorenz, Kali Olson, Ashley Berg, and Karli Freeberg joined Erik Heitkamp in the triple jump as the Broncos newest state qualifiers.
Heitkamp continues to improve dramatically under the coaching of Bronco jump coach, Brad Bittner. Heitkamp stretched the measuring tape to 41’9” in the triple jump to qualify for the state meet by three inches. Heitkamp, a junior, also leapt a personal best of 19’10½” in the long jump to score 11 of the Broncos’ 80 points.
The Bronco boy’s finished in fifth place and the girl’s in 8th.
The Broncos’ speedy short relay looked sharp as they qualified for the state meet.
In looking at the history of the Rotary, Lisbon athletes have earned four Most Valuable Athlete awards for their performances at this prestigious meet. Todd Urbach in 1999 and Jon Evenson in 2007 are the Bronco boys’ reps, and Kara Herbst Carter in 1983 and Patti Bock in 1981 are Lisbon’s girls to have claimed this award.
Senior Derek Hiam continues to heal and put up impressive numbers this spring. Hiam was slowed by a hip injury early but just missed qualifying in the javelin with his throw of 159’7” and in the triple jump 41’3½”. Derek missed by just five inches in the javelin and 2½” in the triple.
Times are dropping and heights and distances are increasing as the weather has turned warm. Look for many more Bronco athletes to qualify for state during the next three meets.
Lisbon competed at the Jamestown Al Cassell Meet on May 10, are at Concordia today, and will compete in the Region 1 meet at Concordia on May 17.
Freshman Blake Mallett ran a personal best of 52.8 in the 400 and leads LHS in the 200, 400, 300 hurdles, and the 400, 800, and 1600 relays.
