Chips, Portagers,

ONEKAMA — Parker Johnson had
already taken first place in the pole vault in each of the first two
meets of the season, but went into Tuesday’s four-school meet at Onekama
with a goal.
The Portager senior wanted to clear 13 feet.
He did it, but just didn’t know it at first.
Johnson had already set a personal record earlier in the day at
12-feet-8 and locked up first place when Onekama assistant coach Jerry
Brown said he was moving the bar up to 12-feet-10.
He really bumped it up to
13-feet-1, and didn’t tell Johnson until he already cleared the bar.
“Coach told me we were going to go to 12-10 and he lied to me,” Johnson
said with a laugh. “I wanted to get 13 today and I got 13-1. It’s all
good. Coach knows what he’s doing.”
On the boys side, Lake City took first place with 99 points, Manistee,
which co-ops with Manistee Catholic Central, was second with 94.5,
Onekama, which co-ops with Bear Lake, was third with 65.5 and Frankfort
finished fourth with 60.
“I was pleased with a lot of the performances today,” said Manistee
coach Eric Thuemmel. “It’s just a few of the distance relays that we
were a little off on. I was really happy with our sprint relays. They’re
a bit ahead of where I thought they would be.” |
It was the first time this season
the Chippewas competed outside, and the second time for the Portagers.
“I’m pleased,” said Onekama boys coach Mickey Story. “We had decent
weather and a good effort from the kids. We’re still trying to find
events for the kids and just experimenting right now.”
On the girls’ side, the Portagers
defended their home track by taking first place with 107 points,
Frankfort was second with 75 while Manistee and Lake City tied for third
with 68.
“I’m excited for the kids this year,” said Onekama girls coach Bonnie
Brown. “I don’t have a whole lot of girls out this year, but I have some
talented athletes.”
The top overall performer Tuesday was Manistee High School senior
McKenzie Majchrzak, who claimed three individual first place finishes,
and was part of a winning relay team.
Majchrzak took first in the high jump (5-2), long jump (14-6 1/4),
200-meter dash (29.0) and anchored the 800-meter relay along with
Jennifer Alway, Allie Mallison and Noel Solis.
“McKenzie did her normal, fabulous thing,” Thuemmel said. “That was a
nice performance from her.”
Onekama freshman Jaylee Brown took first in the pole vault (8-6), second
in the 100-meter high hurdles (17.8) and 300-meter hurdles (54.4) and
was part of the Portagers winning 400-meter and 1,600-meter relay teams. |
