PAGE B6, KEIZERTIMES, MAY 18, 2018 McNary PRs but fails to qualify for state FINISH, continued from Page B1 Despite fi nishing fourth in the GVC, Wise likes McNary’s path. While West Salem would see No. 1 and undefeated Tu- alatin in the second round, the Lady Celts would most likely face No. 4 Barlow. “Even though we’re ranked a little bit lower than the other teams, we probably ended up with the best part of the brack- et,” Wise said. But fi rst McNary has to take care of business in the fi rst round. “We have to worry about Franklin,” Wise said. “It doesn’t matter who we think is going to be there. We have to get there and I know we can if we play our game.” Last season, the Lady Celts 4x100 and 4x400 relays, which both fi nished fourth. Joining her in the 4x100 were freshmen Leah Doutt, Ashlin Samples and Isabella Walker, and in the 4x400 were Doutt, Walker and Reyna Ter- razas. Leah fi nished eighth in the 100 in 12.91. “My start was actually pretty good today but I think I might have slowed down a little too early,” Leah said. “I just didn’t fi nish through the way I wanted to.” Determined to do better in the 200, Leah placed fi fth in 27.25. “I just really didn’t want to get last again after that 100,” Leah said. “So I was pushing because I was kind of angry. Overall it was a good experience as a freshmen getting to run in fi nals. t’s defi nitely good com- petition and defi nitely pushed me to do my best. I think it will be good for the next few years.” Walker fi nished sixth in the 300 hurdles in 50.64. Hannah Mallery, a sopho- more, ran a PR of 50.81 to place seventh. In the 100 hurdles, sopho- more Caitlyn Kiefi uk Yates ran a season best 16.86 to take fi fth. Samples fi nished sixth with a PR of 16.87. Noah Grunberg PR’d in both hurdle events, fi nishing sixth in 16.22 in the 110 and seventh in the 300 in 42.28. Casey Toavs placed fourth in the 300 hurdles with a PR of 41.83. Victor Zavala advanced to fi nals in the javelin and fi n- ished sixth with a throw of 144-09. Lucas Garvey and Brian Hernandez took seventh and eighth in the boys 200 in 24.12 and 24.60. Garvey also fi nished sixth in the 400 in 53.21. McNary’s boys 4x100 re- lay team (Garvey, Hernandez, Jose Solorio Diaz and Dyami Rios) placed fourth in 44.84. Garvey, Solorio Diaz, Emanu- el Figueroa and Brayden Ebbs took sixth in the 4x400 relay in 3:32.65. West Salem swept the team titles. McNary’s girls fi nished fi fth. The boys placed eighth. “I’m not discouraged be- cause we were setting per- sonal records so that’s good,” Gauntz said. “We’ve just got to get faster. We competed. West (Salem) is just really fast. North (Salem) is really fast. It’s a tough conference with nine teams.” Pole vaulter Paige Downer is the only McNary athlete competing in the state track meet. The 6A girls pole vault is scheduled to begin Friday, May 18 at 12:30 p.m. at Hay- ward Field in Eugene. lost in the quarterfi nals to Or- egon City. “We’re trying to get over the quarterfi nal hump,” Ebner said. “We haven’t made it past that all my four years so this is the year hopefully.” McNary defeated West Sa- lem 10-9 on May 9 in its fi nal home game. Tied 9-9 in the bottom of the seventh and the bases loaded, Haley Bingen- heimer singled on a line drive to center fi eld to score Emma Kinler for the winning run. The Lady Celts fell behind 6-0 but responded with two runs in the bottom of the third, three in the fourth and two in the fi fth to take an 8-7 lead. McNary led 9-7 entering the seventh before West Salem tied the game in the top of the in- ning. After Kinler and Abbi Covalt singled to lead off the bottom of the seventh, Nadia Witt was intentionally walked to bring Bingenheimer to the plate with the bases loaded. Covalt was 4-for-4 with a double, home run and three RBIs in the victory. Witt also homered. Kinler was 3-for-4 and scored two runs. McNary also fi nished strong at Sprague, scoring four runs in the fi fth inning and six in the sixth to win 11-1 on Friday, May 11. Taylor Ebbs was 3-for-5 with two RBIs and two runs. Nadia Witt was 2-for-4 with a double and scored two runs. At the plate, Faith Danner was also 2-for-4 with a double. In the circle, Danner pitched all six innings, allowing just one un- earned run. “They started fi ghting for each other, which is one of those things I think we’ve done a little bit here and there,” Wise said. “We haven’t played our best game yet and I think we’re starting to see glimpses of that. If we can keep that together then I have high hopes for these guys because we’re plenty talented.” KEIZERTIMES/Derek Wiley McNary junior Victor Zavala fi nished sixth in the GVC in the javelin. Freshman Ashlin Samples placed sixth in the 100 hurdles. ASK MR. TRASH Q. I heard about China’s ban on recycling. What IS recyclable now? A. Be very careful to only recycle the things on your hauler’s approved list. PLASTIC BAGS, STYROFOAM, AND WAXY CARTONS WERE NEVER RECYCLABLE! ©1986 By DEREK WILEY Of the Keizertimes Nine McNary athletes ran either personal or season bests on day two of the Greater Valley Conference Track and Field Championships on Thursday, May 10 at West Sa- lem High School. But none of those times were fast enough to qualify any more Celtics for state. Kailey Doutt was the clos- est, fi nishing third in the 800 in a season best 2:19.40. Hai- ley Lewtag of South Salem captured the fi nal qualify- ing spot, placing second in 2:19.17. Elizabeth Khoury of For- est Grove won the race in 2:18.83. “Kailey, she ran her fastest district time in the fi nals that she’s run at the conference meet,” McNary head coach Franklin Gauntz said. “She kind of let them (Khoury and Lewtag) go at the 400 mark a little bit and maybe should have kept it a little bit closer but she tried as hard, I don’t think she left anything out there. It’s just unfortunate.” Doutt also ran on McNary’s PLEASE KEEP THE FOLLOWING GOOD RECYCLABLES EMPTY, CLEAN AND DRY: • Cardboard and uncoated greyboard boxes (Shipping & cereal type) • Print-quality paper - newspaper, junk & office paper, and magazines; • Tin & Aluminum Cans Only - NO foil, trays, or scrap metal; • Plastic Bottles and Jugs Only - NO bags, tubs, clamshells, bubble Pak, or other plastics.
