Aberdeen’s Henry Nelson and Hoquiam’s Jane Roloff each broke a meet record at the Ray Ryan Memorial Grays Harbor Championships track and field meet on Friday in Ocean Shores.
With the sun shining and blustery winds, Nelson and Roloff each broke a meet record in the 800-meter race as the event was hosted at North Beach High School for the first time since 2015.
Nelson took the boys race with a time of 1:57.88, which broke a meet record and ranks as the second-best time in the 2A class this season behind Squalicum’s Chase Bartlett (1:55.64) according to athletic.net.
Aberdeen won 11 of the meet’s 17 events to place first with 226 points, led by three wins from sophomore Isaac Garcia (400, long jump, triple jump) and two wins apiece from Micah Schroeder (100, 200), Caleb Schimelpfenig (110 hurdles, 300 hurdles) and Tyler Bates (discus, shot put).
Montesano placed second with 165 points, led by event wins from senior Gabe Bodwell (javelin, high jump) and junior Pau Surinach, who wowed the crowd with a 12-foot-6 clearance to win the pole vault, a personal-best mark.
Elma placed third with 100.5 points, led by two race wins by freshman distance runner Frank Roberts (1600, 3200).
Roloff broke a meet record in the 800, winning with a time of 2:23.18, the third-best time in the 1A class this season.
Roloff also won the 1600-meter race, scoring a good portion of her team’s 97 points to place third.
“Jane Roloff is proof that hard work, works,” Hoquiam head coach Chad Allan said. “(Hoquiam Assistant) Coach (Dave) Beeler is doing a great job with the blueprint and Jane is doing all the heavy lifting. We are blessed to witness and work with any athlete of Jane’s inspiring competitive spirit.”
Joining Roloff as event-winners for the Hoquiam girls team was sophomore Haylee Jahner, who placed first both the high jump and pole vault with personal-best marks.
“Hoquiam had a good day,” Allan said. “Forty-one PR’s and two girls were double winners.”
Montesano placed first with 175 points, winning nine events led by Mikayla Stanfield (200, javelin) and Sam Roundtree (100 hurdles, 300 hurdles), each of whom won multiple events.
Aberdeen placed second with 147.5 points.
The Bobcats were led by senior Annie Troeh with a victory in the triple jump.
“The sun was shining and the wind was whipping. It was a great day at the beach,” North Beach head coach Peter Fry said. “Thank you to all the coaches and volunteers from each of the schools. Ray Ryan would be happy to know that track and field is alive and well in Grays Harbor.”
