Quenton Lanese again cruised to a decisive 20+ second victory in the 9-10B race despite having been tripped with a resultant impressive tumble early in the race. After the fall he literally ran away from the field on a wild weather day which included several delays due to a major front. The next highest BPS finish was turned in by Ginger Stevick with a fine 36th in the 7-8G event and she also came closest to her Regionals time on what proved to be quite a slow course through the wet bluegrass hills of Bourbon County Park. Caitlin Lanese, with an early fall, and Gemma Stevick both ran well in their 9-10G race finishing  72nd and 113th respectively in the mud and wind with a large field of 280 runners. Wesley Stevick completed the long day in a survival mode with the cold front established and a massive field of 423 13-14B entrants.

11/18/2017--STRIDERS RUN WELL AT JO REGIONALS--Woodland Park, Seattle
A small troupe of residual Barron Park athletes showed well in repeat efforts at the challenging Woodland Park course. Zach Sundt led the way with a big course PR in the 17-18 group to qualify in the top 30 for Nationals. Sven Krattinger bested his Association time by 40s to also finish in the top 30. Alan Penrose ran his fastest WP ever in the 11-12 division in a tough crowd as did Selly Beyene for the girls. Wesley Stevick ran well in the 9-10 race just 1s over his best.

11/11/2017--SEVEN STRIDERS EARN REGIONAL JO OPPORTUNITY--Woodland Park, Seattle
Just another cold rainy day at the Woodland Park XC course yielded good results for the Striders. In significant competition seven BPS athletes finished in the top 35 to qualify for the regional meet to be run on the same course next week. In his first JO effort 7yo Oliver Nisbet ran a sturdy well-paced race with his best 2k time. Wesley Stevick, 9yo, ran his first 3k ever and looked great in a tough large field of bigger guys. Selly Beyene, 12, had the highest finish in competitive groups with a fine 16th and Clara Mackison, 11, was hampered in the same race by pinched feet, qualifying with a gutsy effort. Alan Penrose, 12, ran very well and had the fastest 3k BPS time of the day, an enormous zr time by a minute on this course. Gabe Rader-RIce, with tired legs from a recent half-marathon finished just out of qualifying despite a big PR time, as did Danny Pree in the 13-14 run despite a fine effort and nice stride. Zack Sundt and Sven Kettinger both qualified in the tough 5k race with its many hills and turns.

The open events got off to a solid start with Carissa Stovall qualifying for Nationals with a PR 5th place effort in the hammer. The heat appeared to slow both Selly Beyene and Clara Mackison's 1500m efforts, and Clara was just a smidge  from qualifying in the jav. Ashlei Borden finished 4th in the 2k shot and brother Cole had a much better day in the HJ than his Multis the day before. Amanda Moll rebounded in the HJ while sister Hana was hampered by a sore knee.


7/6-7/2017--REGIONAL JO MULTIS--Spokane Valley
Two hot days of Multis produced some personal bests. The highest Barron Park finish was accomplished by Cole Borden in the Triathlon with a 4th which included a 400m PR. Hana Moll took 5th in her Pentathlon. PRs included SP and LJ by Emma Bradley, SP by Abigail Kee, hurdles by Amanda Moll, and SP and LJ by Clara Mackison.

6/23-25/2017--JUNIOR OLYMPICS CHAMPIONSHIPS--Chief Sealth HS
Days 1 and 2 of the Western WA JOs produced fine efforts and some ten Striders thus far who have qualified for Regionals in Spokane. Highlights included high top 12 times in the sprints by Ryzen Nunez as he qualified for the finals in both, a #2 all-time BPS leap in the LJ by Jonathan Holcombe for the silver medal, fine qualifying and top 12 marks in the 1500m by Clara Mackison and Selly Beyene, a discus win and qualifying efforts in the Discus, HT, and jav by Carissa Stovall, more top notch HJing by Amanda and Hana Moll, the former a top 12 PR, Hana's good for a silver, qualifying HJs by Catherine Burnett and Cole Borden, a qualifying first Steeplechase ever by Zack Sundt, solid efforts in the sprints by Anthony James, his 400 effort just missing qualifying in 9th with a solid 4 second PR, an 11 second PR in the 1500 by Wesley Stevick, just missing qualifying, and qualifying efforts in the disc and HJ respectively despite sub-par marks by Jaiden Estergard and John Gerhard. Day 3 was hot but brought even more success. Clara Mackison earned the gold medal and club record in the inaugural "AeroJav" competition with a fine PR toss and qualified in the 800m as well in near-PR time. Ashlei Borden had a huge PR and #3 all-time BPS qualifying Turbojav effort and earned a shot put bronze as well. Cole Borden secured another qualification with a Turbojav throw just off his best while Selly Beyene claimed a second event with a bronze in the 3000m. Amanda Moll earned two more Regional berths with a huge LJ PR and a silver medal hurdle effort, her 2nd sub-15 race; Hana Moll took the hurdle bronze and qualified in 7th just off her LJ best. Carissa Stovall qualified in her fourth throw with a fine silver medal shot effort  and Elliott Clary also earned his ticket with a discus 4th. Ryzen Nunez placed 6th and 7th respectively in the 100m and 200m finals, a fine accomplishment in a fast crowd. Jaiden Estergard learned more about the tricky AeroJav with a toss just short of his PR and Rian Browne, in his first 110m hurdle race ever, showed great promise with a BPS top 12 time. Emma Bradley was terrific and focussed in her first "big venue" hurdle race as she lopped well over a second from her PR. A total of fifteen athletes qualified for Regionals in some 35 events.

All ten participating Striders showed courage and delivered PRs galore in a tough crowd of competitors. Leading the way were Hana Moll in the 11-12 Pentathlon and Cole Borden in the Triathlon, both riding nice top 12 PR efforts to bronze medal finishes and top 12 point totals, Hana in the hurdles and shot, Cole in the shot and HJ, the latter approaching national level. Hana's and sister Amanda's point totals were an impressive #3 and #4 all-time BPS. Amanda produced three fine PRs including a top 12 hurdle mark and a great gutsy 800m effort. Clara Mackison erased the disappointment of a no-mark LJ with a huge PR/top 12 800m and Olivia Kee popped a huge LJ PR despite sore knees. Wesley Stevick had an amazing 13 second 400m PR and Abigail Kee leapt to an impressive 5 inch HJ PR as both qualified for Regionals. Emma Bradley, Catherine Burnett, and Jaiden Estergard all gained experienced as they had the courage to tackle lots of unfamiliar events and established some fine PRs to work on. Emma posted a HJ best by almost four inches.

10/21/2016--6TH ANNUAL BRUCE NEWMAN RACE IS A WET ADVENTURE--LBA PARK
Pouring rain did little to dampen the brilliance of 45 finishers in this classic 1.5 mile race. Clara Mackison of Barron Park was the first girl finisher and Beau Fields of Evergreen Christian led the boys. Evergreen Christian handily captured both team titles. Most impressive was the gritty determination of every runner to give it their all in miserable wet and cold. Most improved over 2015 time for Barron Park athletes was Gabe Rader-Rice (-32sec). Also improved were Jaden Ohara (-14s), Joseph Zilla (-14s) and Clara Mackison (-9s).

8/30/2015--VOLCANO DECATHLON SUCCESSFULLY ENDS TRACK SEASON--SMU, Lacey
Another fine day of fellowship and athletic endeavors with surprisingly little rain comprised the 12th Annual One-Day Decathlon.

Ten athletes completed all ten events and six others competed in 6 to 9 events. Implements were age-appropriate; hurdle races were self-selected with survival a consideration.

BG Amanda Moll leapt to a Saturday BPS gold with a clutch HJ effort, equalling her PR on her way to Florida. With the top five placers earning National JO slots, BG Hana Moll took the bronze medal in the HJ after a narrow National miss in 6th in the LJ. YG Carissa Stovall continued her fine season with a huge PR SP bronze medal throw on Saturday, then returned on Sunday to claim the second BPS gold with a nice discus toss. After a somewhat disappointing Multis attempt despite reasonable marks, YB Colby Wilson came through in the open HJ with some clutch clearances, equalling his PR to earn the silver and Nationals. He PRd in the TJ on Sunday, narrowly missing a National berth in 6th. BG Clara Mackison earned National slots Saturday in both the 1500m and the Turbojav, a bronze in the former and a fine PR silver in the jav; she qualified in her third event, the 800m in Sunday in 5th, a significant accomplishment especially in her first year in the age group.  MB Cody Klingelhoffer ran a nice BPS top 12 1500m PR in a very tough field. YB Cade Fischer competed well in the PV, HJ and 200H, all just off his PRs. IB Eric Rucshner took 7th in a strong field of javelin throwers.

A hot sunny day at CVHS witnessed some more excellent athletic performances as BPS athletes rose to the occasion. SG Clara Mackison, seeded 7th in the 1500m, earned the silver medal with a nicely-paced effort which resulted in a mammoth 25sec PR and club record. YG Carissa Stovall heaved the shot a personal best by almost 4 feet, a solid BPS top 12 mark, and claimed a national-qualifying 4th place. YW Charene Stovall had a fine day with two qualifying 4th place finishes in the shot and discus, both just off her best top 12 BPS distances. MB Colby Wilson overcame post-pentathlon fatigue and a sore heel to leap to the bronze in the HJ with some near-miss great leaps. MB Jaylen Clay qualified for the finals in the 100m and showed great focus at the end of a long hot day with a storybook start and finals-qualifying effort in the 200m, edging closer to both club records. BGs Amanda and Hana Moll, at the front end of their age group, continued to improve with PRs in the LJ which cracked the BPS top 12 list and narrowly missed making the finals. MB Bowen Kennedy hurled the TJav just off his best mark and also narrowly missed the finals in 9th place. YB Cade Fischer was just off his best with some fine hurdling in the long event.
DAY 4--CLARA GOLDEN, JAYLEN & COLBY HURDLE TO MEDALS, ALL THREE TRIPLE QUALIFY
SG Clara Mackison continued her fine meet with a big gold medal toss in the TJav, breaking the old Regional record by over 2 feet, then came back in the heat to qualify for Nationals in her third event, the 800m. MB Jaylen Clay had a spectacular day as he sprinted to 5th and 4th places in the 100m and 200m, both club records and took over 1/2 second off his prior hurdle PR to claim the silver medal and #2 all-time BPS. MB Colby Wilson also had a huge nationally competitive PR for the hurdle bronze, just .03 sec behind Jaylen and only .05 sec off the gold. YG Carissa Stovall had another huge 8 foot PR in the discus to earn the 5th place national qualifying honor. SB Taylor Neilson threw well just off his best in the TJav for 7th. YB Cade Wilson also looked like a thrower with a significant PR effort in the javelin.

SB Taylor Neilson also hurled the TJav an impressive top 12 PR for the bronze. MB Colby Wilson earned the first BPS gold of the meet with a dominating HJ performance, then ran a solid PR in the hurdles for the bronze in a very tough field which included Jaylen Clay who had a fine race and huge PR for 5th to go with an impressive bronze in the 100m final and a 5th in the 200m final. The YB javelin yielded three YB Regional qualifiers as Eric Rucshner earned the bronze, Carson Amendt 4th, and Cade Fischer 6th, all with nice PR efforts.

He was only 35 points off the gold. He came back Wednesday on tired legs to leap a creditable 10th in the TJ.

YW Charene Stovall, also in the young end of her age group, had an off day in the shot on Wednesday. MB Cade Fischer focused well on the big stage and hurdled to a nice PR Thursday as the 15th fastest qualifier with the 4th all-time BPS time, then high jumped well on Friday. MG Carissa Stovall was undaunted Thursday in her first National experience in the shot, putting just off her season best in a tough crowd. She finished in the top half of the discus throwers on Saturday, where Chelsea Chaput just missed the medal round with a 9th place finish.

7/23-29/2012--USATF JUNIOR OLYMPIC NATIONALS--Morgan State U, Baltimore, MD
DAY1--BROOKE IN 3RD AFTER 1ST DAY OF HEPTATHLON
IG Brooke Feldmeier collected herself after a disappointing hurdle race to crank up two personal bests in the HJ and SP to sit only 123 pts behind the leader after day 1.
DAY2--BROOKE EARNS BRONZE WITH CLUB RECORD HEPTATHLON EFFORT
Brooke put together a strong 2nd day with a summer-best javelin toss to take the bronze medal in one of the strongest IG heptathlon fields ever assembled. This was her second best point total, but a BPS record, adding on a rough hundred to her Regional JO total.
DAY3--CHARENE THROWS CLUTCH PR TO EARN SHOT MEDAL
IG Charene Stovall went big when it counted to take the 8th place medal in the shot put. The personal best throw is #2 all-time Barron Park. MB Cade Fischer had an off-day in the hurdles, as did IG Karen Bulger in the shot and IB Ryan Chase in the TJ with scratches on his two best jumps.
DAY 5--BOWEN AND BROOKE OFF THEIR BESTS IN TOUGH COMPETITION
BB Bowen Kennedy represented himself and the clug well in a tough TurboJav crowd. IG Brooke Feldmeier couldn't reproduce her PR jump from the Heptathlon, but still finished a creditable tie for 10th in a superb field.

DAY 6--MICHAEL EXPERIENCES NATIONALS
YM Michael Johnson didn't come near his best distance, but still finished tied for 13th of 44 throwers in his first National meet. IG Charene was also off her best in the discus competition.
DAY 7--KAREN SAVES BEST FOR LAST WITH JAVELIN GOLD
IG Karen Bulger pulled out the stops on a muggy hot Baltimore morning and earned the gold medal in a tough crowd of competitors. Her toss was a personal best and club record for the pointy spear.

Barron Park athletes took home three medals after the first day of the Track City Classic and are poised for more. YM Michael Johnson once again upped his jav club record as he earned the silver medal in good competition. YM Andy Miller threw for a silver and a bronze in the shot and hammer respectively, both BPS top 12 distances (SP #3). BB Colby Wilson, in his first major meet, rose to the occasion and qualified for the finals of the 200m with a fine #8 all-time BPS time. On Day 2 MG Chelsea Chaput upped her discus PR to earn the silver with the #3 BPS mark.  BB Colby Wilson leapt to a nationally competetive HJ height for the silver and #5 BPS, then earned the only Barron Park gold of the meet with a nice LJ effort before running a solid 6th in the 200m. YM Andy Miller returned for a discus bronze despite some timing issues.

7/7-8/2012--DAY 1 REGIONAL JOs: KAREN,CHARENE, BOWEN AND BROOKE PUNCH NATIONAL TICKETS--Summit HS, Bend
A brutally sunny day produced some great performances in a marginally managed meet on the beautiful Summit track. IG Karen Bulger had a superb day with jav and shot golds, the latter a mammoth heave breaking her PR and club record by over 2ft. BB Bowen Kennedy also pulled out the stops and fired off a 7ft PR in the turbojav to earn 5th place and a trip to Baltimore, with his throw good for #3 all-time BPS. IG Charene Stovall had a big PR in the shot for 2nd place, #2 on the all-time BPS list and a Nationals opportunity.  IG Brooke Feldmeier added a silver in the HJ with some great form on tired legs to extend her Baltimore meet beyond the heptathlon. YB Willie Broxton sprinted his way into both the 100m and 200m finals in 4th position with great PR times just off the club records. MG Chelsea Chaput just missed in the discus with a 6th place effort, then showed toughness with a PR top 12 shot toss. MG Carissa Stovall also had a nice BPS top 12 SP PR showing more good things to come, as she and Chelsea are both in their first year of the age group. MG Hannah Chamberlin earned some valuable big meet experience in the HJ. MB Dylan Miller ran a solid 1500m race in heat and altitude and faces two more race opportunities Sunday. Arguably one of the finest efforts of the day was turned in by diminutive MB Cade Fischer in the HJ, leaping to two PR heights against some big guys to barely fall short of Nationals with a 6th place finish out of 16 competitors.
DAY 2--WILLIE, CADE, RYAN AND MICHAEL JOIN THE NATIONAL QUALIFIERS
IB Ryan Chase and MB Cade Fischer, despite being off their bests, both qualified for Nationals with 5th place efforts in the TJ and hurdles respectively. YM Michael Johnson upped his own javelin club record as he also qualified for Nationals in 5th place. IG Brooke Feldmeier added another National event with a silver medal hurdle run, the highest Barron Park finish of the day. IG Charene Stovall took the bronze medal in the discus for her second qualifying event. YB Willie Broxton qualified in both the 100m and 200m with fine 4th place finishes, a rare Barron Park accomplishment. MB Dylan Miller earned the team Ironman award with three distance events in the heat,elevation and sun. YB Cam'Ron Stovall gained some experience throwing in one of the best YB discus fields ever assembled at the Regional level.

IB Ryan Chase, in his first Decathlon and battling a hip pull, posted PR marks in four events on his way to the #3 all-time BPS point total. His 18 foot PR javelin toss was particularly notable, as he earned the 5th place medal in a very strong field. MB Cade Fischer also wore the 5th place medal in a talented group, scoring a PR point total with sold all-around marks. IG Josie Kinkela, in her first ever organized meet, had personal bests in the 200m, 800m and LJ to complete her first Heptathlon.

6/1/2012--STATE HIGH SCHOOL MULTIEVENTS--Lk Stevens HS
Day 1 of this spectacle included all facets of sport emotions, unfortunately for YM Frank Chang, who ended his first decathlon abruptly with a hamstring pull in the first event, the 100m. He gamely attempted the LJ and SP, but the handwriting was on the wall. YM Austin Roth set a BPS club record in the 100m and leapt to a top 12 LJ mark as well. YW Jess Harper introduced herself to the Barron Park top 12 lists in a big way, as she established top 12 marks in all five events of her decathlon, notching the top marks in the jav and discus for her competition group. IG Camille Cleveland, in her first heptathlon, ran and jumped to top 12 marks in the hurdles, HJ, and 200m.
Day 2--Despite an aching back, YG Jenn Harper persisted in her decathlon with five more top 12 marks, including PRs in the HJ and SP and a gutsy 1500m run; she swept the throwing events  YM Austin Roth had a great day with a big hurdle improvement, a top 12 discus effort despite throwing the college disc, a PV PR, and a courageous final 1500m PR by 8 sec allowing him to break the 5000 point barrier and finish in the top 10 athletes after a disappointing javelin throw. IG Camile Cleveland also had a fine finish with top 12 marks in the LJ and 800m, the latter a very well run race, her first ever at the distance.

10/28/2011--BRUCE NEWMAN ALL-CITY XC RUN--LBA
Sixteen amazing athletes showed up for this 1st annual 1.5 mile event in memoriam of Bruce Newman, much beloved coach of Evergreen Christian for seemingly forever. It was run on the same course Bruce used for many years. Bruce would have been proud of the Barron Park sixteen as they not only showed up in a miserable cold blowing rainstorm, but ran courageously without voicing a single complaint, many never having run this far before, truly high on the long list of all-time Barron Park highlights. Pacing the  girls was Kendra Smith with another fine effort, with Margaret Zilla earning the silver, and Cate Burtner finishing her first ever season of running with the bronze medal. Dylan Miller continued his strong season with a big win for the guys. Cade Fischer was terrific in taking the silver, and Bowen Kennedy ran a very strong 3rd. Everyone deserved a medal for effort and attitude. Most improved from this course last year were Margaret and Johanna Zilla for the girls, and Joseph Zilla and John Bussey for the guys, all taking more than a minute off; Joseph took a lofty near 4.5 minutes off.

AAU JUNIOR OLYMPICS NATIONALS--HEAVEN GLORIOUS IN NEW ORLEANS, LA JULY 31-AUG 6
MG Heaven Kelley opened with her Pentathlon in this single-year age group event. With a heat index of 105 and spotty organization compromising her opening hurdle event and performance, she dug herself out of a deep hole with a small PR in the shot, a fine #3 all-time BPS PR in the HJ, and a reasonable LJ to move into 11th (of 52) before the 800m. She did what was required with a gutsy 800m finale after 10 hours of competition to move up to 8th place and a well-deserved medal. Open events followed with two near-PR's in intensely competetive fields in the 400m and hurdles, where she improved more than a second on her Multis hurdle time. In her final event, the HJ, she came back from a 2 hour storm delay to clear her second-best height ever and lay claim to the bronze medal, an extreme clutch performance.
Pentathlon (80H/HJ/SP/LJ/800m) 16.63/4-7*/20-1.75*/12-6.25/2:47.65 = 2057pts (8)

USATF JUNIOR OLYMPICS NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS--WICHITA, KS JULY 26-31, 2011
7/31/2011--DAY6!--ELISA MISSES CLUB 1500m RECORD BY A HAIR; RYAN PR'S HJ AT END OF LONG WEEK--
--Wichita, KS
SBG Elisa Saenz had a long week in the heat waiting for her 1500m race, but made the most of it despite a heat index over 100. She ran a fine PR, just missing the club record by 0.3 sec. YB Ryan Chase, running on fumes after working both ends and the middle of this long meet, came through in the HJ with a nice 2 inch PR , tied for #3 all-time BPS, jumping the same height as the 8th place medalist, but having more misses along the way. BG Sierra Saenz, running the 1500m in the heat and humidity, was off her best, but still was well under her 2010 National time and a runner to be reckoned with at any level as evidenced by her gutsy Association and Regional wins.
7/30/2011--DAY 5--KAREN UNLEASHES ENORMOUS TOSS FOR BRONZE; BROOKE & RYAN ADD TO RECORDS
IG Karen Bulger, after relative disappointments in the shot and disc earlier in the week, put it all together in the javelin, zinging the spear for a huge 9 foot PR and club record good enough to earn 3rd place in a tough field of athletes. Particularly impressive was her poise in achieving her best toss under the intense pressure of having her first two throws go out of sector with the very real threat of not making the finals. Karen's medal was the sixth for Barron Park athletes this week.  The six medals are only one shy of the highest BPS National total ever. IG Brooke Feldmeier continued her fine meet by multitasking the HJ and hurdles. Her clearance in the HJ was barely off the medal stand in 9th, with 6th through 11th being decided by fewer misses, and her hurdle time was a great PR and club record, albeit wind-aided, her fourth of the meet. YB Ryan Chase also ran a tremendous windy hurdle race with a huge PR effort, lowering his own club record in the process, his second of the meet. In all, an impressive eight club records have been broken in Wichita. MG Ariel Wilhite ran a solid time in the 3000m, especially considering the heat, and did much more than just fulfill her dream of running at Nationals.
7/29/2011--DAY 4--ZION JUST OFF CLUB RECORD 100M; HEAT TAKES TOLL
YB Zion Riley was just .05 over his fine club record in the 100m, finished in the top 16, but didn't get to advance to the semis because there were fewer than 50 runners in his age group. After two fine medals, the business and heat won out for YB Ryan Chase in the LJ. IG Karen Bulger also had an off day in the shot.
7/28/2011--DAY 3--CADE AND RYAN AMAZING WITH JUMPS MEDALS; RYAN AND ZION THRASH CLUB RECORDS

On a blistering hot day at the Wichita State track, BB Cade Fischer was even hotter as he added a gargantuan 4 inches to his PR and 8 inches to his Regional qualifying height to earn the 8th place medal in a strong field of jumpers. This was only the fifth ever HJ competition for Cade. YB Ryan Chase was also torrid as he added to his medal total with an enormous TJ PR of 18 inches to cap another successful day for Barron Park athletes. Ryan's leap earned him 6th place and broke his own club record. YB Zion Riley bested his 200H Regional time to come up just short of making the finals in an exceptionally fast field of hurdlers. He crushed his own club record in the process in only his fourth attempt at the event. IG Brooke Feldmeier couldn't overcome yesterday's fine heptathlon finale 800m and didn't qualify for the 400H finals, giving her a better chance in the HJ and short hurdles. IG Karen Bulger started off her National throws parade with her second-best toss ever in the discus, which featured one of the strongest fields ever assembled. In the 800m, BG Sierra Saenz and MG Ariel Wilhite both were a ways off their bests in the heat, but gained some valuable experience for their next races, Sierra in the 1500m and Ariel in the 3000m.
7/27/2011--DAY 2--BROOKE EARNS HEPTATHLON SILVER WITH CLUB RECORD PR EFFORT!!
IG Brooke Feldmeier stayed on task and "left it all on the track" with a courageous 2nd day of the Heptathlon, showing improved balance and cracking her second and third club records in the process. Her point total was a big 135 higher than in June to up her own club record, her 800m also established a new club standard, an incredible accomplishment in the furnace-like conditions, and her improving javelin moved up to #9 all-time BPS. Her silver represented the highest National JO Multis finish for a Barron Park athlete in 13 years.
7/26/2011--DAY 1--JO NATIONALS--RYAN AND ANDY TAKE THE MEDAL STAND!!  BROOKE POISED.
YB Ryan Chase turned a solid all-around performance and a gutsy final 1500m effort into his first National medal ever in the Pentathlon. He used his PR-tying HJ to stay in contention, sitting in 9th after the first 4 events. A courageous 1500m in the heat produced a 7th place finish and a well-earned trip to the podium. IB Andy Miller exceeded his Regional hammer toss by 17 feet to earn a fine 5th place medal in a very competetive field. IG Brooke Feldmeier had an outstanding first day of the heptathlon, running the 4th best hurdle time, the 2nd best 200m for a club record, and tying for 1st in the HJ to give her a nice second place standing after the first day, not far off the lead.

7/9/2011--DAY 1 REGIONAL JO OPEN EVENTS--SIERRA, BROOKE AND ZION RISE TO THE TOP, MANY EXCEL
A near-perfect weather day graced the Barron Park faithful and witnessed some fine efforts from the troops. BG Sierra Saenz showed exceptional heart in pulling out the gold from a neck-and-neck 1500m battle with yet another superb stretch run against a worthy foe. IG Brooke Feldmeier added another gold to her multis medal with another fine but grueling 400m hurdle run against a full field, the 800m from yesterday's heptathlon still evident despite a fairly decisive win. Newcomer YB Zion Riley had a fine day, blazing to a club record in the 200H by well over a second despite hurdle form which has room for improvement. Zion also ran the fastest 100m qualifying time of the day. YB Ryan Chase added to his hardware and National events with two nice bronze medals in the LJ and HJ, the latter a fine PR and top 12 mark.BB Cade Fischer, also a newbie to the JO scene, showed great poise in earning a tie for 4th and a National invitation in the HJ with a solid PR, then finishing in the top eight in a deep 400m field, winning his heat in fine fashion. SBG Elisa Saenz earned a silver in the 1500m and PRd in the LJ. BB Bowen Kennedy was just off his best in the TJav in a deep field, and BG Kendra Jones fought off illness in her 1500m to finish just off her best with her beautiful stride. MG Ariel WIlhite was just off her game in the 1500m the day after her pentathlon, but still managed a fine 7th.
7/10/2011--DAY 2 REGIONALS--CLUB RECORDS FOR RYAN AND ZION, GOLDS FOR KAREN AND ZION, PRs GALORE
Arguably one of the best-ever Regional showings by Barron Park athletes continued on this near-ideal Spokane day. YB Zion Riley completed  his conquest of the 100m by jetting to a 1st place finish in the final, setting his second club record of the meet in the process. YB Ryan Chase also continued his own amazing meet by qualifying with a silver in the TJ, then dropped a huge 0.3 sec off his own hurdle club record for another silver. IG Karen Bulger came on the scene with all three throws in one day and rose to the occasion, qualifying in all three, including gold medals and nationally competetive marks in the shot and javelin. MG Ariel Wilhite brought her national dreams to reality with two nice efforts in the 3000m and 800m, the latter a very nicely run race for the bronze, well above her seeding status. MB Conner Fredericks emerged from vacation to toss the discus and didn't disappoint with a PR top 12 effort. IG Brooke Feldmeier shook off the fatigue of her 4th straight day of competition to earn a fine silver in the HJ and ran a strong qualifying 4th in the hurdles. BG Sierra Saenz also followed up on yesterday's success with a superb effort in the 800m for the bronze, knocking a huge 4 seconds off her PR to claim the #4 all-time BPS slot. BG Kendra Jones rebounded from yesterday with a very fine 800m PR by a sizeable 3 seconds in a nicely run race to move up the BPS top 12 list as well. BG Trinity WIlhite bested her Association time in the 800m and SBG Elisa Saenz was just off her best 800m time with a strong finish. BB Cade Fischer, in only his second LJ competition, continued to show great focus with an  improvement of 14 inches over his Association effort
in a very competitive field , climbing onto the BPS top 12 list in the process. BB Bowen Kennedy was running PR pace in the 800m when an errant elbow ended his run, fortunately without any significant injury. IB Andy Miller improved on his Assoc mark with a solid silver medal effort in the hammer.

6/25-26/2011--CLUTCH PERFORMANCES AT ASSOCIATION JO --Chief Sealth HS, W.Seattle
Great efforts were legion at this competitive annual classic. On day 1, six gold medals were earned, two venerable club records were broken, and numerous top 12s were breached. SBB Tanner Jensen had a day to remember with gold medals in the 1500m and SP as well as a PR 400m to qualify in 4th. His 1500m finish was a thing of beauty which garnered him a fine club record. BG Sierra Saenz was also spectacular in earning gold in the 1500m with a gutsy late charge down the stretch just over her best mark. She also qualified 7th in the 400m. IG Brooke Feldmeier took on the 400 m hurdles for the first time and broke the club record by a huge 5 sec in a nicely-paced gold medal run. YB Zion Riley, in his first big meet, had a huge going-away gold medal run in the long hurdles and also qualified for the 100m finals with the 2nd best time of the day, just .03sec off the club record. BB Cade Fischer kept his focus to win a gold in the HJ, only the 2nd time trying the event. He also ran a fine PR 400m to qualify for Regionals in 6th. IB Andrew Miller was off his best in the hammer but still earned the gold and the #4 spot on the BPS list. BB Bowen Kennedy earned a silver in the TJav with a PR toss and also PRd in the 400m. MB Simon Bauer posted two PRs in the shot and jav, good to qualify him in both for Regionals. MB Conner Fredericks also earned a Regional berth in the shot. Ryan Chase earned the silver in an off day in the LJ with more events to come. MG Ariel Wilhite continued her fine season qualifying in the 1500m in a tough crowd. BG Kendra Jones ran a determined 1500m to also qualify, a big 7 sec PR and solid top 12 time. Also chalking up strong top 12 PRs was SBG Elisa Saenz with a silver medal run in the 1500m for #2 all-time BPS. MB Dylan Miller knocked 14 sec off his 1500m PR and BG Trinity Wilhite a huge 11 sec off her previous 1500m best. YB Perris Jones showed great form just a tick off his 100m and 400m bests.
MG Hannah Chamberlin missed her HJ but qualified in the SP just off her best.
DAY 2--Clutch performances continued. YB Ryan Chase returned to form with a TJ gold, upping his own club record in the process, then ran a fine silver medal short hurdle race. IG Karen Bulger powered past the fields to earn two golds in the shot and jav and qualified in the discus as well. YB Zion Riley didn't show the ill effects of GI distress and hip pain as he blazed to a silver medal in the 100m finals, setting a fine club record in the process. MB Conner Fredericks tossed the disc for a huge 11 foot PR to jump into the silver medal position and onto the BPS top 12 list. MG Ariel Wilhite ran a fine PR in the 3000m for the silver to move up the top 12 list and also qualified in the 800m. There were many fine Regional-qualifying 800m times. SBG Elisa Saenz notched the #6 all-time BPS time for 4th, BG Kendra Jones ran a stellar top 12 Pr by 5 sec for 6th, BG Sierra Saenz topped her previous best by 4 sec to earn the bronze medal and #5 BPS, and BG Trinity Wilhite qualified in 7th. For the boys, YB Perris Jones ran a spectacular PR by 12 seconds to earn a Regional berth, BB Bowen Kennedy ran a fine first 800m for 6th with a great finish, and MB Dylan Miller qualified despite not having his best day. IG Brooke Feldmeier looked smooth in running the #2 all-time BPS hurdles time for the silver and qualified in the HJ and Jav as well, earning a top 12 list in the former on a sore ankle.

6/19/2011--8 STRIDERS EXCEL AT JO MULTIS; HEAVEN, RYAN GOLDEN
Eight intrepid Barron Park athletes showed exceptional grit and courage, most facing events they had little experience with. Not surprisingly, noting the character and spunk of these athletes, they were wonderful, notching multiple PRs and top 12 marks. MG Heaven Kelley had a solid day which included a nice top 12 hurdle PR on her way to the gold medal and a fine #3 all-time BPS mark, notably in her first year in the age group. YB Ryan Chase also had a superb day with LJ and 1500m PRs in a tough field, amassing a huge nationally competetive #2 BPS point total. MG Ariel Wilhite showed great composure chalking up PRs in all five events, including a beautifully run #3 all-time BPS 800m, with her silver medal point total an impressive top 12 mark. MG Adrianna Hernandez, in her first real meet, had PRs in all of her pentathlon events and showed fine athleticism in the process. MB Mack Lang, also in his first multis, had fine PR marks in the SP, LJ, and 1500m to earn a well-deserved silver medal. In the BB triathlon, Cade Fischer PRd in all his events and showed great promise. His 400m was the fastest of the field. SBB Tanner Jensen joined the older guys and performed admirably with PR efforts in the HJ and 400m, both BPS top 12 marks. BG Trinity Wilhite also had three solid PRs in her triathlon with a gritty effort.

STRIDERS STATS #9
7/10/10--DAY THREE REGIONALS--TEN MORE QUALIFY AS CLUB RECORDS TUMBLE--Sealth HS
One of the more impressive days in Barron Park history saw several venerable club records fall and some very solid top 12 PR marks established. On a warm perfect weather day, YG Karen Bulger had a huge meet with club record gold medal efforts in the shot and jav, improving her shot PR by almost 3 feet and knocking off a very solid jav club standard. YG Brooke Feldmeier continued to shine with a club record gold in the 200H. MG Peyton Russell was amazing in leaping to a club record in the LJ, incentivized by the reward of a kitten, to take down one of the oldest and staunchest records on the books. YM Brendan Franz had a spectacular and well-run golden 1500m, eight seconds under the old club standard. Also earning golds were YW Olivia Midles in the Hammer, setting  new PNA and Region 13 records in the process and YM Jordan Arakawa in the Hammer. Also qualifying for Nationals were BG Hannah Chamberlin in the HJ with a fine 2+ inch PR good for bronze, BG Heaven Kelley, with a brilliant silver 400m PR (#2 BPS) and another silver 4ft+ HJ, BG Sierra Saenz with a gutsy 11 second 1500m PR for a photo finish bronze, MG Kat Copeland who cruised to a 1500m silver, MG Julianna Salanoa with a bronze and silver in the shot and disc respectively, the latter a nice top 12 PR, and YG Charene Stovall with a solid shot silver. New PR top 12 efforts included a massive SP PR by YB Adam Zimmerman and a fine 200H run by YG Kelsey WIlder.
7/11/10--DAY FOUR REGIONALS--MORE MEDALS AND BESTS AS RYAN AND LANE EARN TRIP TO SACRAMENTO
YB Ryan Chase came up with a big TJ PR to win gold by a mere cm and IB Lane Russell earned the bronze in tight TJ competition to make it 14 qualified for Nationals. YM Brendan Franz used his speed to blow past foes into 2nd in a fine qualifying 800m effort, a #2 all-time BPS mark. YG Karen Bulger earned her third gold of the meet with a narrow discus win. YG Brooke Feldmeier tied her #2 BPS HJ to earn silver and another event at Nationals, and MG Kat Copeland ran to gold in the 3000m to claim her second National event. Fine top 12 PR's came from YG Kelsey Wilder in the hurdles and from SBG Trinity Wilhite, BG Heaven Kelley, and BB Dylan Miller in the 800m. Cam'ron Stovall had a nice discus PR as well.

XCELERATOR DECATHLON LIVES UP TO HIGH EXPECTATIONS
8/29/2009                                Ingersoll Stadium                                          Olympia,WA
Another day of serious fellowship and fun resulted from the 5th Annual pre-XC Decathlon. The highlight was a relatively injury-free event (the exception being Casey's right foot) ending with an extremely dark 1500m. Jesse Stevick took the men's title and Autumn Stevick was the women's winner with a new club record total. Scott Copeland won the Master's title. Marks: # = club record

        WASHINGTON GAMES PRODUCE PLETHORA OF RECORDS AND HARDWARE
7/22/2009                               Shoreline Stadium                                    Seattle,WA
Records fell and the medal take was enormous as three Striders were stellar in the Washington Games. Jesse Stevick won the open mile in club record time and also earned ironman status by setting an OM club record in the 400m hurdles shortly after with a bronze medal effort. The icing on the cake was the 3-person coed 1600m relay as Jesse ran both the 1st and 4th leg, pulling out the silver medal for Team Stevick. Casey Stevick won the open javelin and shot, breaking his club record in the latter, and also ran his first 400H ever, turning in a nice sub-60. Cassidy Stevick won the HS javelin and shot.
