Meet
Wednesday
Hi my name is Wednesday.
I love my playtime with you.
I also love cuddle time on
your favorite chair or couch.
My
name
maybe
Wednesday but I will make
everyday special if you take
me home.
from 1B
in 13th place with a season-best
time of 21:57.14, and freshman
Chloe Madden in 18th place
with a PR time of 22:32.27.
“We’ve been focused on
tapering as we get close to
state,” Tatum said. “Everything
we’ve worked for comes down
to next weekend.”
And as for experiencing her
final run at Tugman for
Siuslaw?
“I’m going to miss it. This is
one of my favorite courses
because of the different terrain
and being a figure-eight. After
you make one loop, you know
what to anticipate,” Tatum said.
North Bend won the team
title with 34 points, followed
by Siuslaw with 41 points.
South Umpqua was third (49),
followed by Brookings in
fourth place with 86 points.
With its second-place finish,
the Viking girls have earned a
trip to state, where they are the
defending state champions. A
repeat isn’t out of the cards but
will take as strong an effort as
Thursday, when several of
Viking runners on both teams
were still recovering from an
illness that spread through the
school last weekend.
“I was in Boise,” said Mans.
“When I came back on
Monday, I wondered where
everyone was at.
“About 100 students were
out sick.”
Among them were boys
team members Isaac Griffes
and Jack Pickell, who were still
recovering from the after
effects of high fevers Thursday.
As late as Wednesday,
Griffes was still carrying a 102-
degree fever. Normally at the
front of Siuslaw’s pack with
Pickell, Griffes was fourth on
Thursday and 14th overall,
with Pickell coming in fourth
place with a PR time of 17:11.
The fourth place finish
earned Pickell a solo trip to the
state meet Nov. 5, with the
Vikings being nudged out of a
team
appearance
by
Marshfield, 50-53.
Like the girls team, the
Viking boys set a number of
personal bests Thursday.
Freshman Kiger Johnson ran
17:32 for ninth place, followed
by freshman Jonah Jarman in
14th (18:00) and senior Ryan
Alletson in 15th (18:12).
All were personal records.
Griffes finished in 18:09.
North Bend won the team
title (34), followed by
Marshfield (50, Siuslaw (53),
South
Umpqua
(82),
Brookings-Harbor (99) and
Douglas (140).
The 4A state meet will be
held Saturday, Nov. 5, at Lane
Community College in Eugene.
