Victory at Shanley

  • May 3, 2016

The Red River Boys won another meet last Thursday, taking home top honors at the Shanley Invitational, held at Concordia College in Moorhead MN. Senior Mo Kamara led the boys contingent with 17.5 points, winning the 110m Hurdles and leading off the 1st Place 4x100m Relay team. His time of 15.32 in the hurdles was just ahead of teammates Peter Wysocki (2nd-15.44) and Tyler Enerson (3rd-15.66). Parker Wenzel finished 5th in 16.43 to complete 1-2-3-5 placing in the event. Other event winners included the 4x100m team of Kamara, Kassim Nsibirwa, Wenzel, and Devon Pope (44.68) and Carlos Horcacitas in the Triple Jump (42’6). Devon Pope jumped 41’10.50 in the Triple Jump to cap a 1-2 finish. Carter Buelow broke the 50’ barrier for the first time in the shot put with a 50’3 effort and 2nd Place finish. Ben Hutchison improved on his 3200 time with a 3rd Place, 9:50.56 run. With what’s being dubbed as a “Daltonian” effort, sophomore Dalton Byrne ran a great race and lowered his PR to 10:10.00 in a 7th Place finish. Other high scoring events included the 1600m, where Will Valentine (3rd-4:40.31), Tim Dunham (5th-4:44.59), Byrne (7th-4:40.63), Cole Stenseth (9th-4:57.99), and Jake Arason (10th-4:59.00) all ran PR’s or near PR’s, and the high jump, which saw Alex Holmes (4th-5’8), Kamara (7th-5’8), and George Nyanforh (8th-5’6) place three in the top 8. Daniel Pierce (2nd-174’2) and Liam Ogren (3rd-163’3) also had strong showings in the javelin.
