Multiple members of the B-B-E Jaguars track and field teams broke personal records today at the Dave Sieben Invitational at Melrose high school. It was a thoroughly enjoyable track meet to be a part of. I arrived at 4:30 p.m., and the sun was setting when I left town. My last video was recorded at 8:35 p.m. There was not a trace of clouds in the sky throughout the evening.
By just a fraction of a second, Taylor Nelson broke his personal record in the 1600 run. The time is still 4:43, but the hundredths-of-a-second changed. He also ran the third leg of the boys' 4x400 relay team that broke their season record (3:48 and now it's 3:47 and change).
Here's a video featuring one of Bree Thieschafer's shot put attempts in Melrose:
In the 1600 run, Kylie Zins shaved nearly 30 seconds off of her personal record. Her new time is approximately 7:03, which beats her previous best run of 7:31. It is an incredible feat to burn down that much time off of a personal record in the 1600 this far into a season.
Here's a video featuring part of the boys 4x400 relay tonight:
B-B-E's boys 4x400 relay team included Dominic Ramos, Miguel Santamaria, Taylor Nelson and Mason Douvier.
More to come tomorrow. I don't have official results yet.
