Heppner Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon Wednesday, April 11, 2018 - THREE Heppner track teams compete in early season meets The Heppner men’s and women’s track teams have stepped up to the competi- tion in early season meets. After stormy conditions led to an early end to the Buck Track Classic in Pendleton, athletes were ready to race in warm, calm conditions in Boardman on Friday. The Riverside Twilight Relays Invitational included lim- ited single runner/thrower events and multiple relays that are not included in normal meets. The irregular meet allowed Heppner to show its depth as a team. The meet started with outstanding performances from the throwers. Derek Howard threw 124’4.5” in the discus for a second place finish, 134’7” in the javelin for a fourth place finish, and 47’1.5” in the shot put for a first place fin- ish. Alex Lindsay received first place finishes in both the long jump and the triple jump and Makayla Silvia jumped 4’6” for a second place finish in the high jump. Many personal and sea- sonal records were broken in the running events. The meet included the follow- ing single runner events only: 1500 meter run, 100 meter dash, 100/110 meter hurdles and the 300 meter hurdles. Hunter Nichols led the men’s 1500 meter run from the first lap, finishing in 4:16.49. Trevor Antonnu- ci followed him in second with a time of 4:39:76 and Jorden Sweeney in fourth with a time of 5:01.85. Makayla Silvia had an outstanding performance in the 100 meter dash, running a personal record time of 13.87 seconds and finish- ing a competitive race in fourth place. Alison Cecil ran a season record time of 14.56 seconds for a tenth place finish. Jacob Wallace ran the 110 meter hurdles in 18.98 seconds for a second place finish. Leo Waite ran the 300 meter hurdles in a personal record time of 48.74 seconds and finished in third place. According to a spokes- person, relay events are enjoyed by every athlete on the team and the various relays allowed most of the athletes to participate in one or more relay event. In this meet, the normal 4x100 relay and 4x400 relay were joined by a 4x200, a sprint medley relay (100-100- 200-400) and a distance medley relay (200-400- 800-1200). There were several stand out performances by relay teams: the men’s Derek Howard throwing the shot put. -Contributed photo. 4x400 relay team, made up of Alex Lindsay, Jayden Wilson, Mason Lehman and Hunter Nichols, finished first with a time of 3:43.97, putting them second in the 2A state rankings.

MCSD DRILL -Continued from PAGE ONE to be “reunified” with their children. According to super- intendent Dirk Dirksen, performing this type of drill is essential to prepare staff and students in following established procedures for various incidents that can occur. “We can have all the safety protocols we need in place in our schools, but if we don’t practice them, they will simply not be as effective as they could be,” Dirksen said. School officials noted that since Apr. 13 is a no school/in-service day in the Morrow County School District, it offers an ideal time to conduct the drill. For any questions about the emergency drill, please contact the Morrow County School District office in Heppner at 541-676-9128. The Loop committee to meet The Loop Morrow County Transportation advisory committee will meet Apr. 17 at 3 p.m. in the Heppner City Hall. The agenda will include revenue/expense reports, ridership numbers, travel shed report, Medicaid rides, STIF update and other business. NOW HIRING DRIVERS
