One last tournament

Athletes from across Western Montana competed for a chance at the final track meet of the season, the state championship. That meet will be in Butte this upcoming Friday and Saturday. The top five finishers in each event will advance to the State Class B Meet.

The Florence girls brought home the Western B Divisional championship on the heels of Katie Neimeir and her four first place finishes. But it wasn’t all Neimeir. Both the 400 relay team of Brandy Crews, Amanda Heffner, Odessa Conley and Cortney Reynolds, and the 1,600 relay team of Reynolds, Heffner, Brooke Zeiler and Conley used precise handoffs and speed to dominate the relays. Sara Schertenleib did her part too, picking up a win in the high jump.

When the dust had settled, the Florence team had chalked up 125 points for the championship. Darby finished second with 87, followed by Loyola, Deer Lodge, Seeley-Swan, Valley Christian, Thompson Falls, Superior, Plains, Arlee and Troy.

Neimeir won the 200, 400, 100 hurdles and the 300 hurdles. She was third in the 100. Brandy Crews finished fourth in the 100. Reynolds finished second behind Neimeir in the 400 and third in the 200. Conley finished behind Neimeir in the 300 hurdles and fifth in the 100 hurdles. Middle distance runner Brooke Zeiler was sixth in the 400, third in the 800 and fifth in the 1,600. Schertenleib came in third in the long jump. Another Falcon, Katie Kirby finished fifth in the javelin and fourth in the triple jump.

Darby’s Heather Demorest had her share of troubles but came out with a fifth in the 800, second in the 1,600 and second in the 3,200.

"She’s been battling shin splints for two weeks. She’s hardly run at all," said an emotional Steve Gideon, coach of the Tigers. "She came back even though she’s been throwing up all day. I wasn’t going to let her run but she wanted to run herself. To coach kids like that, it’s amazing"

Demorest wasn’t the only Tiger out there, though. The Darby crew took first, second and fifth in the long jump. Christina Bender jumped 15-9-1/4 to win the event. Missy DeWalt was second with 15-6-3/4, and Rachel Wetzsteon was fifth with 14-7-1/2. DeWalt finished second in the triple jump with 33-6-1/4, and Wetzsteon was third with 32-4-1/2. DeWalt finished second in the high jump as well. Mariah Cress took second in the discus with a throw of 111-0. Kasey Blue finished sixth with 96-9-1/4. Cress finished fourth in the shot put, too. Darby’s relay team finished second in the 400 and the 1,600 was third.

"I’m ecstatic," said Gideon of the second place effort by the Darby girls. "We have some track coaches that have done really good over the years. Nate Olsen has been with us for a few years. Merv Smith, a retired coach from California helps out with the jumpers and look at the success there. I grew up with a great coach, Wendell Griffin. I’m just so proud of these kids. In our school we’ve had teams that haven’t done well but these kids... I’m ecstatic."

Seeley-Swan won their first divisional championship in more than a decade on the boys side of the Western B. They were followed by Loyola, Thompson Falls, Florence, Superior, Deer Lodge, Arlee, Plains, Darby, Troy and Valley Christian.

Darby’s Paul Abrahamsen won the 1,600 with a time of 4:35.23. Matt Stout was sixth in that event. Abrahamsen also won the 3,200 with a time of 10.06. Seth Garbett finished third and Stout was fourth for the Tigers. Dillon Oliver took fourth in the 800 with a time of 2:07.79.

Florence’s Bryan Slingsby was once more master of the ring as he won the shot put with a 54–6-1/2 effort. It was his best throw of the season and currently is the top throw in Class B and fifth best overall. Slingsby was second in the discus with a146-7. Danny Lombardo won the long jump with 19-10-1/4. He finished third in the high jump and fifth in the triple jump. Kiel Hansen was third in the triple jump. Joe Redfern finished fourth in the 100 with teammate Harvey Cuyler taking sixth. Redfern also finished fifth in the 200. Sam Fernandez took fourth in the 400, fifth in the 110 hurdles and fifth in the 300 hurdles. The Falcon 400 relay team finished fourth.

Hamilton softball coach Steve Weston has one more item on his to-do list this season - the state tournament in Polson. The Lady Broncs have a first round bye in the tournament Thursday because they only have one conference loss. They will take on the winner of the Columbia Falls/Sidney game at 3 p.m. on Thursday.

“We have to come to play every single out and every single pitch,” said Weston.

This will be Weston’s last tournament for the Lady Broncs. The 14 year veteran recently tendered his resignation.

“There comes a time to do this,” said Weston of his resignation. “All of these girls had older sisters who played for me, It was just time to do it.”

He went on to say he felt the program would be in great hands. “I’ve always wanted to leave a program better than when I came in. I think we’ve done that.”

Corvallis will have a bye as well. The No. 2 team from the Central division will play the winner of the Butte Central/Belgrade game at 5 pm on Thursday. “They are both scrappy teams,” said coach Rich Borden. “Belgrade swings the bat well and Butte Central is tough in a tournament.”

Florence will defend their state championship in the Class B/C ranks. The Lady Falcons will take on Shepherd at 11 a.m. in Great Falls.
