DHS won the titles despite skipping the boys 3,200-meter run and the girls 4\u00d7400 relay while DHS also didn\u2019t compete in the girls discus, which was canceled because of darkness.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur distance runners ran well at a higher altitude, and our sprinters ran well in chilly and windy conditions,\u201d said DHS head coach Johnny Bertrand.<\/p>\n<p>Sydney Flores won the shot put and almost matched her personal record with a heave of 37 feet, 10 inches.<\/p>\n<p>Jessica McVaugh, Mason Turner, Angela McManus and Sofia Voss won the medley relay in 1:59.36.<\/p>\n<p>In the girls 4\u00d7800, Abby Fehr, Nina Quayle, Dewa Ilg, Tea Forest won by almost 30 seconds in 10:33.59.<\/p>\n<p>Mason Turner, Seneca Wilson, Jessica McVaugh, Halle Moore finished second in the 4\u00d7200 in 1:57.06.<\/p>\n<p>Willow Lott ran a PR to win the 1,600 in 5:27.33.

Land Lambert won in 4:34.50, Damian Frausto crossed second in 4:35.76, and Nathaniel Ellis finished third in 4:58.55.<\/p>\n<p>Bertrand said Jaxon Fancher \u201chad a huge day,\u201d winning both the 200 and 400 in personal bests of 23.16 and 51.28.<\/p>\n<p>Landon Roberts had his best day at the track, getting personal records in long jump (first, 20 feet, 9.70 inches), the 100 (fifth, 11.69), the 200 (fourth, 23.65) and the 400 (second, 51.53).<\/p>\n<p>Avery Cerwin and Abby Fehr both ran PRs in the 800, taking second and third in 2:28.49 and 2:29.41, respectively. \u201cAvery is still just figuring out how good she can be after coming to track and field from soccer this year,\u201d Bertrand said.<\/p>\n<p>Luke Swenk led DHS in the boys 800, crossing second in a personal record 2:10.12.<\/p>\n<p>Dewa Ilg also won the 3,200 with a personal record of 12:13.55.
