SB: Sagamore All-Conference Team Named

Hoosier Authority

Crawfordsville leads the way with three players named to
first team honors on the Sagamore Al-Conference Softball team. Stormy Staton,
Marrissa French and Chelsea Day were the Athenians so honored. The bad news for
Sagamore Conference foes is that Staton is just a junior and both French and
Day are just sophomores. With the way Crawfordsville dominated the league this season,
it appears more of the same may be on the way for the next couple of years.

 
Lebanon,
Tri-West, North Montgomery, Western Boone and
Southmont all placed two players on the first team. Lebanon’s Kalyn Hacker and Sarah
Skelton were the Tigers named, while Lacie Woodall and Cindy Bondy represent
Tri-West. Jami Addler and Casey Stall brought back All-Conference fame to
Southmont. Alli Thompson and Ashley Buis are the North
Montgomery
contingent. Western Boone added Krystal White and
Jordan Hoskins. The first team is rounded out by Cara Conklin of Frankfort and Shelly Winkler of Danville.

 
Crawfordsville again placed three players on the second
team, Elizabeth Zachery, Sarah Williams, and Ariel Hinton. They were joined by
three members of the Western Boone Stars,Cari Clanton, Jennifer Biesecker and MacKenzie
Benson. Ashley Holmes and Laci Richardson represent Lebanon on the second unit, while Maria
Crossley and Kaylee Shaw are the Tri-West Bruins named. Frankfort had three named to the second team
in Jessica Ayres, Brittney leach and Caitlin Pearcy. The second team is rounded
out by Heather Reeves of Danville and North Montgomery’s
Tori Harmon.

BT&F: Crawfordsville Leads Sagamore Schools In Sectional Action

 

Mike McGraw
Hoosier Authority

Crawfordsville led the way for Sagamore Conference schools
in a rain altered schedule of boys track sectionals Thursday evening. The Athenians
placed fourth in the Plainfield Sectional field that included five Sagamore
teams. Other conference finishes were Danville in sixth, Tri-West seventh,
Southmont eighth, and Western Boone 11th.The Athenians qualified
five individuals and two relay teams for next week’s regional competition. That
represented a significant improvement over recent seasons.

 
Meanwhile, Lebanon
finished 110th in the sledgehammer field at Carmel
while Frankfort and North Montgomery were
postponed by rain at Lafayette.
The Hot Dogs are expected to show well at that location.

 
Here is the rundown on Sagamore performances.

 
CRAWFORDSVILLE—Advanced five individuals and two relay
teams.

   To say the
Athenians advanced five individuals is a little misleading. That is because
they were led by two athletes who qualified in more than one event. The star of
the day for Crawfordsville was Trace Cotton who won the 110 Meter Hurdles and came
back with a third place finish in the 300 Meter Hurdles. Jordan Boykin also
qualified in two events, ending fourth in the 100 Meters and third in the High
Jump. Others advancing included James Caraher with a second in the 800 Meters,
Cory Yund with a fourth in the 100 Meter Hurdles, and Craig Fairley with a
third in the 200 Meters. The Athenians advanced both sprint relays with a third
in the 4 X 100 and a fourth in the 4 X 400.

 

DANVILLE—Advanced
four individuals.

   Again, one person
is counting for two. Karl Schoening placed fourth in the Shot Put for the
Warriors after winning the Discus. Danville
also advanced sprinter Luke Robinson and pole vaulter Trent Schaffer.

 

SOUTHMONT—Advanced two individuals through placement.

   The Mounties were
led by Jonathon Christensen who continued his sparkling season by winning the
High Jump. Patrick Posthauer will also be in the regionals after finishing
second in the 110 Meter Hurdles.

 

TRI-WEST—Advanced two individuals and one relay team.

   The Bruins’ Mathew
Moore ended second in the 300 meter Hurdles and mate Daniel Hoover was fourth
in the 1600 Meter Run. Tri-West also advanced their 4 X 800 Meter Relay Team
with a fourth place performance.

Mike McGraw
Hoosier Authority

Unlike many other sports, Sagamore Conference girls track
teams were spread among three sectionals Tuesday evening. As expected,
Southmont and Danville
experienced the most success. Those two squads just participated in an epic
battle for the conference championship last week. This time around Southmont
finished fifth in the South Putnam sectional and Danville was right behind in sixth. Also in
that sectional, Western Boone ended ninth, Tri West 11th, and
Crawfordsville 12th. At Noblesville, Lebanon
took a tenth place finish, and in Lafayette Frankfort placed sixth while North Montgomery wound up 11th.

 

Here is a summary of each team’s performance
 

SOUTHMONT—Advanced five individuals and two relay teams.

   The Mounties were
led by another record setting performance by their 3200 Meter Relay Team which
won the event in a sectional record time of 9:43.01. Southmont also advanced
their 4X400 Relay Team with a third place finish. The distance running barrage
continued with Creasy Clauser winning the 800 Meters in a time of 2:19, Kylie
Lippencott finishing second in the 1600 Meters and Holly Harch duplicating that
in the 3200 Meters. The Mounties also advanced athletes with a 3rd in
the Long Jump and a 2nd in the Pole Vault.

 

DANVILLE—Advanced
four individuals and one relay team

   The Warriors got
their 4 X 100 Relay Team through with a fourth place finish. That team was
anchored by Jessica Coccaro who advanced individually by placing third in the
100 Meters. Danville
also got advancing efforts from Lauren Callahan who was fourth in the 800 and
Abigail Brewer who placed third in the 1500 Meters. The regional team was
rounded out by a third place finish from Stephani Collisoon in the Pole Vault.

 

FRANKFORT—Advanced
one individual and one relay team.

   The highlight for
the Hot Dogs was a second place performance by Christen Kazmiecks in the Pole
Vault. They also got through their 4 X 400 Relay Team.

 

WESTERN Boone—Advanced two individuals.

   The two Stars to
advance are the same person. Multi-sport star Brandy Woody will go to regionals
in two events. She finished third in the 400 Meters and fourth in the High
Jump.

 

TRI-WEST—Advanced one individual.

   The Bruins will
send Sara Blair to regionals after a fourth place performance in the Long Jump.

 

CRAWFORDSVILLE—Advanced one individual.

DANVILLE
– They just wanted to break 10 minutes.

Instead, the Southmont High
School girls 3,200-meter relay team raced to one of the most impressive
performances in Sagamore Athletic Conference track meet history.

Seniors
Holly Hatch and Brooke McGaughey, junior Creasy Clauser and freshman Kylie
Lippencott shocked themselves Friday afternoon – leading the Mounties to their
fourth consecutive conference track and field championship.

Southmont’s
girls 3,200 relay shattered the conference record, finishing in 9:46.83 – nearly
23 seconds faster than the previous record of 10:09.28 set by North Montgomery’s
Jordan Foxworthy, Blair Parker, Sommer Redmon and Kristen Wheeler in 2004. They
also broke the Montgomery County girls record.

“We knew the time to beat
was 10:09. Our goal was to get under 10 (minutes),” Hatch said. “But we had no
idea we could run that fast.”

Southmont scored 131 points, winning
Friday’s conference meet by a single point over Danville at Danville High
School. Frankfort (112) finished third, llowed by Western Boone (78), Lebanon
(64), Tri-West (41), Crawfordsville (36) and North Montgomery (26).

With
the Mounties winning the final event – the 1,600 relay – they brought home
another title and left normally reserved coach Marvin Williams emotional and
nearly speechless.

From the 3,200 relay team’s win, to Clauser winning
the 800 and setting another conference record, to freshman Allie Norris pulling
out the 300 hurdles title, to senior Holly Hatch and freshman Madison Fouty’s
personal-best runs and second- and fifth-place finishes in the 3,200, they
showed the conference their not done with their title-reign yet.

“These
girls are unbelievable,” Walters said. “They refuse to lose. They refuse to
lose. This team found a way to win the championship, whatever it takes to pull
it out they did it.”

They forgot about the wet track, rain sprinkling
down on them and the fall-like temperature – and raced.

Thanks to a
strong start from McGaughey and a career-best finish from Clauser, the Mounties
cruised to the 3,200 relay title.

With her teammates yelling at her to
sprint the last 1/4-mile, Clauser took off. She ran her fastest 800 of her
career, finishing the final two laps in 2:15.5 – four seconds quicker than her
previous best time set this season.

“I had no idea what was going on,”
Clauser said.

Afterward, Hatch noticed the team’s tag number, No. 1, and
asked if anyone would like to keep it. Clauser happily volunteered.

“I
can’t even hear right right now,” said Clauser, as the Mounties’ record-setting
time was announced.

Norris won the 300 hurdles, finishing in 50.95
seconds – a little more than two seconds better than Danville’s Samantha Harden.
Freshman Kylie Lippencott placed second in the 1,600 and third in the 800.
Senior Carrie Rhoads tied for second with Danville’s Nicole Cullison in the pole
vault. They each cleared 8 feet, 6 inches.

Crawfordsville junior Liz
Fowler placed second in the shot put (32 feet, 1½ inches) and third in the
discus (87 feet, 6 inches). The Athenians also finished fourth in the 1,600
relay.

Although they were without freshman sprinter Haley Horner, who
suffered a serious knee injury in a non-track related accident earlier in the
week, Crawfordsville coach Brian Miller was pleased.

“The girls ran
pretty well,” Crawfordsville coach Brian Miller said. “Liz Fowler did well and
our relay team looked good.”

North Montgomery freshman Celia Kauth
finished third in the high jump (4 feet, 8 inches) and sixth in the long jump.
Marie Long finished fifth in the 400 while junior Emily McIlrath placed fifth in
the pole vault.

SB: Sectional Pairings Announced For Sagamore Schools

 

Mike McGraw
Hoosier Authority

It is just about time for round two! The sectional softball
pairings are in and like other sports, the sectional is a repeat of conference
play for most Sagamore schools. The action will be hosted at the newly
renovated field at Southmont beginning May 19th.

 
Lebanon
and North Montgomery will meet in the opening
round game. The Chargers took both regular season games from the Tigers at the
beginning of this month.

 
The other half of the bracket has Western Boone facing Danville and Southmont
staring at the 600 pound gorilla in Crawfordsville. WeBo and Danville have yet to face each other this
season which sets up an interesting scenario. The two teams will play their
season two game series next week. That means they will play each other three
straight times. There certainly will be no secrets left in this one.  Southmont will see a Crawfordsville team that
has lost only once in route to the regular season Sagamore championship. The
Athenians took the season series. The Mounties will hope the home field
advantage can help them spring the upset.
