WICHITA — Austin Stout captured a pair of fourth-place finishes at the Class 6-1A state track and field championships for the Hoisington High School boys — one in the 300-meter hurdles (41.12 seconds) and one in the high jump (six feet, two inches).
The Lady Cardinals 4x400 relay team — Savannah Rose, Abbi Demel, Jordin Greer and Lexi Sanders — finished fourth (4:17.26) at Cessna Stadium on the Wichita State University campus.
“The team did well,” Hoisington head coach Mike Richter said. “They all competed well. Austin got fourth in the high jump. He had a little trouble in the 110 hurdles, but he bounced back to get fourth in the 300 hurdles.
“Our 4x400 relay competed well. They all did a heck of a job.”

Sophie Hayes finished runner-up in 2A in both the 100 hurdles (15.69) and the 300 hurdles (47.18).

“That was a 10-second PR for Pedro on the 3,200,” Lashley said, “and he ran a great leg in the 4x800 relay.
“The relay finished 12 seconds faster than we’ve ran all year, so we were pretty pleased with that.”
