Church posted his best time so far in the 400-meter dash, 54.11 seconds, which put him in second place, 1.29 seconds behind Stanley-Boyd’s Cooper Nichols. Clark added a 12th-place time of 1:02.85. Senior Tyler Kapitz sprinted to third place in the 200-meter dash in 23.86 seconds, 0.27 seconds behind winner Jacques Tulowitzky of Rhinelander. Church was 10th in 24.8 seconds.

Another senior, Jack Tlusty, took third in the 3,200-meter run at a personal- best 12:24.16, just 1.04 seconds behind runner-up Zachary Haas of Stanley-Boyd. Haas’ teammate Reece Trunkel won in 11:59.38. Seidel was sixth in the 1,600-meter run at a season-best 5:15.54.

Sophomore Lucas Borman had a strong effort in the 100-meter dash, taking sixth with his best time of 12.84 seconds. Cory Lindahl was fifth in the 110-meter high hurdles at 21.03 seconds, while Borman was seventh in 21.69 seconds. Both of those times were season bests.

Cole Dassow, Kapitz, Colton Surek and Lindahl teamed up to take second in the 800-meter relay with their time of 1:40.62. They were 5.1 seconds behind a strong Auburndale squad and 4.83 seconds ahead of third-place Northland Pines. Dassow, Kapitz, Logan Kawa and Lindahl were fourth in the 400-meter relay at 47.59 seconds. Auburndale won in 45.81 seconds. Seidel and Jude Stark joined Church and Sullivan to place fifth in the 1,600-meter relay at 3:56.45. Rhinelander won that race in 3:41.33.

Jake Seifert was fifth in the shot put at 36-9. Stark cleared a personal-best 8 feet to place eighth in the pole vault, while Adam Kowalski tied for 11th at 6 feet. Wipf (17-1.25) was 11th, Kapitz (17-0.5) was 13th and Lindahl (17-0.25) was 14th in the long jump.

Last Thursday’s Antigo Invitational was postponed to today, Thursday, and will start at 4 p.m. Along with Tuesday’s GNC championships, Medford will host the annual GNC JV meet on June 10, also at 4 p.m.

“Actually it has been kind of nice having one meet per week,” Sullivan said. “A lot of teams have been doing that and it’s allowed us to get some good training in. But things are going to start happening quickly now.

“We have a great team,” she added. “Everyone really supports each other. We had people stepping in to help fill relay at the end, which was good to see.”
