girls team overall win with 155.5 points.

Chase Boller had the sole event victory for Abbotsford on Thursday, edging out Jonas Dasbach of Eau Claire Regis for the top spot in the high jump. While both cleared a height of five feet, eight inches, Boller was able to do so in just one attempt while it took Dasbach three.

While the Falcons may have only had one first place finish, they finished second in eight different events. Five of those were courtesy of the boys squad, who had three athletes finish as the runner-up in individual field events and had two relays claim second place on the track. Christian Fuentes was one of three competitors who posted jumps over 20 feet in the long jump, his longest leap measuring 20 feet, eight inches. Jesus Reyes also had a solid performance for the Falcons in the triple jump, finishing second with a jump of 38 feet, 10 inches. Carter Cihlar tied with Fall Creek’s Nate Spencer in the pole vault, both earning the runner-up spot by reaching a height of 10 feet in the event.

The 4x100-meter relay of Fuentes, Reyes, Irvin Aguilera and Jovanny Cruz and the 4x200-meter relay consisting of Cihlar, Cruz, Boller and Fuentes both earned seconds, completing their races in 48.63 seconds and 1:38.77 respectively.

On the girls side, Azul Diaz, Margo Pogodzinski and Sydney Falteisek all took second in Bloomer. Diaz did so in the 3200-meter run with a time of 12:56.93, Pogodzinski added one for the Falcons in the shot put with a throw of 34 feet, three-and-three-quarter inches, and Falteisek cleared the second highest height in the high jump at four feet, eight inches. Diaz and Pogodzinski also had third place finishes as well, with Diaz posting a season high time of 5:49.56 in the 1600-meter run and Pogodzinski finishing with a triple digit throw in the discus, her furthest toss measuring 104 feet, six inches.

The girls highest finishing relay, the 4x100-meter team of Falteisek, Chloe Cihlar, Sommer Brodhagen and Oriah Harris, grabbed third in their event, posting a time of 53.04 seconds.

Jack Schindler had the boys’ sole third place finish, coming in as the top boys Falcon in the 1600-meter run, with a time of 5:00.84. Other top five individual finishes included fourths from Sommer Brodhagen, who had a throw of 96 feet, six inches in the discus, Warren Flink in the pole vault with a height of nine feet, six inches and Daniel Davila in the shot put with a throw of 39 feet, three and a half inches, and fifths from Falteisek in the 100-meter hurdles with a time of 17.97 seconds, Celia Schindler in the 400-meter dash with a time of 1:05.62, and Hazel Flink in the pole vault with a height of six feet, six inches.

The Falcons will be back in action on Friday, May 3 when they travel to Stanley-Boyd. The meet is set to start at 4:15 p.m.
