The O'Neill Lady Eagles competed in the 52nd O'Neill Track and Field Invitational under less than ideal conditions on Thursday, April 12th, finishing in fourth place.

Leading O'Neill were the discus throwing Appleby sisters of Kelsey and Lindsey.  Kelsey threw 104-05 and Lindsey threw 102-02 to finish in first and second place respectively. Brandi Walters won the 100 meter dash, finished third in the 100 high hurdles and finished fourth in the 300 low hurdles.  Junior Dani Barelmann finished second in the 1600 with a time of 6:01.19.

Also placing high for the Lady Eagles was freshman Randi Pinkerman who finished in third place in the high jump, third in the 100 meter dash and sixth place in the 200 meter dash.  McKenzie Adamson also placed for O'Neill placing fourth in the high jump and fifth in the triple jump.

The distance duo of Liz Price and Tasha Lechtenberg both placed in the 3200 with Liz placing fifth and Tasha placing sixth.  

Senior Alex Hedlund also placed fifth in the 300 low hurdles, sixth in the 100 high hurdles and was part of the fourth place 4 x 100 relay.

"I felt we competed well in some events, but did not compete at the level we are happy with at O'Neill High School.  We will have to compete better than this to be competitive in the Mid State Conference and the B-4 District," commented Coach Peterson.
