Knights Discover Not All Competition Created Equally
The Knights made their customary journey to Galesburg to compete in the Silver Streaks annual Invitational. The young Richwoods team discovered that not all teams are created equal. Despite 13 season best team performances the Knights could muster no more than a middle of the list 6th place finish in the 11 team meet. Perennial powerhouses Moline and Galesburg showed the benefit of an indoor season and that they are well prepared for the outdoor season in finishing 1 - 2.
Richwoods was led by returning All-State junior Jewel Sanders and freshman distance
runner Katie Grinstead. Sanders set a personal best of 36' 0" in the shot placing 3rd. She also continued to make positive strides in her conversion to a full spin move in the discus claiming 2nd place with a season's best of 118' 5". Grinstead continued her efforts to establish herself as one of the better distance runners in RHS history with her strong performances in the 2 long races of the evening. Her 12:23.4 time which earned her 2nd in the 3200 coupled with a 5:52.9 fourth place performance in the 1600 suggests that her credentials as a top RHS performer are well on the way toward being accepted.
