Waukon boys track team wins at New Hampton, runner-up at NEIC

The Waukon boys track team wrapped up its regular season with a pair of high-end finishes, winning the New Hampton Invitational Monday, May 2 before finishing as the Northeast Iowa Conference Meet runner-up at home Thursday, May 5. That team runner-up finish was fueled by four Northeast Iowa Conference event championships, two of those won by junior Tyler O’Neill, in the 3200 meter and 1600 meter runs, and one each won by seniors Peyton Hesse, in the 800 meter run, and Wyatt Wille, in the 400 meter hurdles.

The Indians are next scheduled to vie for State Meet qualification this Thursday, May 12 at North Fayette Valley.
