Home ›Kee boys track team places 10th at Ed-Co, claims fifth at Postville
The Kee boys track team got to experience its first outdoor competition of the 2019 season, finishing near the middle of the pack in a pair of invitational meets this past week. The Hawks claimed a 10th-place finish in the large Edgewood-Colesburg Invitational that took place Tuesday, April 2 before finishing fifth at Postville’s Foster-Kiesau Relays Friday, April 5, a day later than the meet’s original April 4 date due to cold, damp weather.
“We had two meets his week and I felt they were worthwhile,” Kee boys track coach Pat Wagner said. “The Ed-Co meet was a competitive meet, a lot of good small school track teams. At Postville, we showed a good deal of improvement. My hats off to the people at Postville; they ran a very efficient meet. (Senior) Jacob Berns is off to an excellent start to the season. He had two first-place performances at the Foster-Kiesau relays in Postville.”
The Hawks have just one meet on their schedule this week, scheduled to compete Thursday, April 11 at MFL/MarMac. The Kee boys will then compete in another large meet at Oelwein Monday, April 15 before hosting their own home invitational meet Thursday, April 18, beginning at 4:30 p.m., the Hawks hosting Central Elkader, Clayton Ridge, Turkey Valley and West Central.
