Franklin Monroe takes first in five team
meet
Celina Lady
Bulldogs tops girls side
By George Starks
PITSBURG - On a cold blustery evening, Franklin Monroe hosted its
annual Quad Meet, which saw five schools taking part.
On a night when times and throwing distances as well as jumps and
vaults weren't the best, it was the FM boys and the Celina girls that
would eventually prevail in the end.
On the boys side of the ledger, the Jets barely got by Arcanum and
Celina.
The Jets tallied 101 team points while the Trojans and Bulldogs could
muster only 98 and a share of second place.
Tri-Village was a very distant fourth with 23 while Ft. Recovery was
last on the score sheet with 19 points.
Senior Colin Roberts helped push the Jets cause by winning the 1600
meters, blowing away the field in 4:59.27.
Many of the Jet points were accumulated by seniors Travis Feitshans and
Henry Bourne.
Feitshans racked up big points by winning the discus with a toss of
123'-3/4".
Feitshans was also second in the shot put (39'7") and third in the high
jump (5'2").
Bourne also contributed to the Franklin Monroe effort with a fourth
place finish in the shot put (37'4") and fifth in the discus (96'11.5")
Franklin Monroe also got big points in team efforts, taking first,
second, third and fifth in the 100 meter dash.
In the 4X800 relay and the 4X400, the Jets were second behind Celina.
The Jets also finished second to Arcanum in the 4X100.
On the girls score sheet, it was Celina standing at the top with 103
points with Ft. Recovery second tallying 81 points.
Arcanum (68.5 points) took third with FM fourth (56.5) and the Patriots
last with 41 points.
Tri-Village junior Alisha Hollinger won the 100 hurdles (17.59), 300
hurdles (52.60) and the long jump (14'-6.5) for the Patriots cause.
Senior Abby O'Donnell, heading for Bluffton in the fall, won the discus
for the Trojans with a winning toss of 96'-6" and was a distant fourth
in the shot put with a 31'-6" put.
Franklin Monroe also shined in the pole vault taking the top two spots
while Arcanum senior Sarah Cettnar was fourth.
