Tippecanoe Sports

The boys and girls track teams both won the Miami County Championships last night! I am super proud of how the athletes handled everything that was thrown at them, and how they handled adversity and stepped up for their teammates.

On the girls side we were led by Alissa Magato, Briley Barton, and Megan Strong, who each took home 4 medals last night. They really led the charge and set the tone for the rest of the team! Alissa had 3 firsts (High Jump, 400m, 4x100m Relay) and a second (200m), Briley had 1 first (Long Jump) 2 seconds (400m, 4x400m Relay) 1 third (High Jump), Megan had 3 firsts (100m, 4x100m Relay, 200m) and a second (Long Jump) Myla Thomas had a great day with two huge PR's and a First (300mh) and a second (100mh) place finish. We had numerous other girls who stepped up when their number was called upon to do so!

For the boys, Will Strong, and Max Howard led the charge. Will won the 100m, 200m, and 4x100m Relay. Max was 2nd in Discus, first in High Jump, 2nd in Long Jump, and 3rd in the 110h. Grant Titley also had two medals on the night, finishing 2nd in the 400m and 4x400m Relay. 

We had 3 school records that were broken as well. Alissa Magato broke her own school record in the 400 running 58.46. Megan Strong broke her own school record in the 200, running 25.59, and the 4x100m Relay of Julia Burgbacher, Megan Strong, Brooke Shafer, and Alissa Magato broke their own school record running 49.14.
