The Fergus Falls girls finished in third place at the Rocori Track and Field Invitational on Tuesday, scoring 109.33 points.  Willmar won the event with 183 and Rocori was second with 151.33. The Otters were followed by Detroit Lakes (75.33) and St. Cloud Apollo (31).

Sabrina Fronning once again stood out for the Otters, winning the 100 meter hurdles (15.88) and the 300 meter hurdles (46.37).

 

“Both were season best times for Sabrina,” said Fergus Falls Head Coach Niki Welde.  “She also anchored the second place 4x200 relay team for us.  Sabrina continues to stand out in a wide range of events for the team.”

 

Anna Anderson, Miranda Hoffman and Ashlyn Fronning joined Sabrina on the 4x200 relay team.

 

Svea Smestad threw a season best in the shot put (33-09.50) to claim second place.  She also led the Otters in the discus (92-11). Rachel Wulfkuhle took sixth place (32-07.00) in the shot put competition.

 

“Our high jumpers stood out in the field with three in the top seven,” said Welde.

 

Ainsley Hansen was second (5-00.00), Audrey Mudford tied for fourth (4-10.00) and Hannah Prody was seventh (4-10.00).

 

Jadyn McKeever (9-06.00) and Hallie Sheridan (8-00.00) finished second and third, respectively, in the pole vault, while Sophie Rausch (7-06.00) claimed fifth place.

 

In the triple jump, Anna Anderson was third (31-04.00), Hannah Prody fourth (30-09.50) and Hallie Sheridan seventh (29-10.00).

 

Audrey Mudford claimed third (15-01.50) in the long jump, while Anika Eldien (14-09.25) and Emily Nuss (14-05.75) came in fifth and seventh, respectively.

 

Aspen Rohde ran her debut race in the 3200 and placed fourth (12:12.81).  Emily Nuss wound up fifth (5:45.20) in the 1600.  Ashlyn Fronning came in eighth in the 100 meter dash (13.62).

 

“Our Sprint relay teams both came together for excellent results,” noted Coach Welde.  “We have been working with different combinations and found great chemistry tonight.”

 

In addition to their second place in the 4x200 relay race, the Otters won the 4x100 (53.40) with the team of Ashlyn Fronning, Miranda Hoffman, Hallie Sheridan and Anna Anderson, and finished fourth (11;14.79) in the 4x800 with Berit Skogen, Emma Koeckeritz, Emilie Carlson and Emily Nuss. 

 

The Otters will compete in a triangular next Tuesday in Brainerd, with Bemidji competing as well.
