NASELLE, Wash. —
District champions — boys

That success prompted
celebrations at the ﬁ nal track
meet before state for Naselle

The squad endured windy

Two Comet athletes
led the way with multiple

clearing 5 feet, 8 inches, and
1,600-meter relay in 3.52.69
with teammates Corey Greg-
ory, Fa’aoso Tutu’u and
Antonio Nolan.
“Those were some high-
lights for us and big point
getters,” said coach Rob
Baker.
Schell was also second in
the 1,600 behind sophomore
Kolby Glenn, who won in
5:08.99, taking the lead after
