United South Central/Alden-Conger track star Brant Blosser takes his spot above the No. 4 after finishing fourth in the 110-meter hurdles at the State Track Meet which was held June 10-12.
Two United South Central/Alden-Conger boys track team members competed at the Minnesota State High School League Class A State Track and Field Meet on June 10 to June 12.
Brant Blosser qualified at the Section Meet in the 110-meter hurdles. Jayden Barnick qualified for State in the high jump.
At the State Meet, Blosser was in third place after the first round of preliminaries. The senior ran a time of 14.99 in the prelims.
Then in the finals, Blosser ran a faster time, 14.72, but went down to fourth place.
Still, Blosser medaled for his fourth place finish.
“Brant wrapped up a stellar career,” coach Ryan McCue said. “He was a two-time state athlete who also accumulated a section championship, two all conference honors and a nomination for Mr. Track and Field.”
Blosser, a senior this year, will continue running at Gustavus Adolphus College next year.
Taking third place was Grayson Gibson of Morris Area/Chokio-Alberta, who just edged out Blosser with a time of 14.70. Gibson had been in eighth place in the prelims.
Taking first with a time of 14.53 was Christopher Hilton of St. Charles.
Barnick ended up tied for 17th place at the State Meet with a jump of 6.0. The sophomore was one of nine jumpers that cleared 6-foot, but other qualifications put some of them in a tie at 13th place and others tied at 20th place.
“They ended up moving the pit inside due to weather,” coach McCue said. “Jayden showed strong resilience adjusting to that, and ended a great first trip to state.”
Diondre Flowers of Minneapolis North won the State Meet with a jump of 6-08. In second was Brooks Anderson of Dover-Eyota. Six jumpers cleared 6-04 and four cleared 6-02.
The Wells Wildcats bested the Morristown Morries 7-6 on Wednesday, June 11, after taking the lead late in the game. …
