Enterprise High School track and field dominated the April 24 Union Invitational. All together, Enterprise boys and girls took first place in 13 events.

Junior Matt Fisher won three top medals for the boys. He set personal records in the 110-meter intermediate hurdles and the 300 hurdles. He also ran a leg in the 400-meter relay, along with Jacob Micka, Gage Nebel and Cody Myers. Micka also ran for another victory in the 1600 relay. Junior Patrick Baird – who ran the 800 in his best time this year (2 minutes, 7.54 seconds)- joined Micka, Dusty McAuliffe and Kyle Stangel in the long relay.

Off the track, the boys had Jacob Lynn’s win in the discus, freshman Matt Perren in high jump and Kasey O’Leary in long jump.

Meanwhile, junior Tricia O’Leary took first place in three events for the girls. Her triple jump of 33-11 wrote a new personal record. She won the long jump and ran the 400 relay with Kayla Foster, Sarah Butterfield and Christina Montgomery. In the high jump, Montgomery’s 4-6 was good enough for a win. Sophomore Joscelyn Stangel ran the 800 in 2:38, her fastest ever.

The Enterprise program will compete in the rescheduled Jo-Hi Invitational May 2.
