Shumway breaks Bischoff 200-meter record in Thermop
BY DAVID PECK
With numerous athletes
staying home to prepare for
the junior-senior prom lat-
er that night, a handful of
Lovell thinclads traveled to
the Thermopolis Pro-Region-
al Friday, and the young ath-
letes turned in some strong
performances.
Perhaps the highlight
of the meet was the perfor-
mance of sophomore Kim
Shumway, who broke Bet-
sy Bischoffs record in the
200-meter dash set in 2005.
Shumway finished second
to Rawlins racehorse Keres-
ton Thomas, with a time of
25.67, breaking Bischoffs re-
cord of 25.94. Thomas won at
25.42 and holds the Class 3A
state record in both the 100
and 200.
Coach Joshua Sand-
ers named Shumway as the
Lovell female athlete of the
week.
"She came around the
curve behind the Thomas
girl, then used the straight-
away to get into a good
stride," Sanders said. "The
girl pulled her and Kim got
stronger down the straight-
away and almost caught
her. We couldn't tell who
won.
"The Thomas girl does a
good job getting out and run-
ning the curve. Once Kim
gets to the straightaway,
that's a better part of the
race for her. It was a fun race
to watch."
In another highlight
from Thermop, freshman
Ameesha Anderson set two
new personal records in the
sprints, placing fourth in the
100-meter dash with a time
of 14.11 and sixth in the 200
with a time of 29.13.
"She looked fast," Sand-
ers said. 'We have several
fast freshman girls.

Lovell sophomore Derek Phelps cruises over a hurdle during the Thermopolis
Pre-Regional Friday. Phelps slashed his time in both hurdles races Friday.
Fellow frosh Lauren
Hinckley placed 10th in the
100 at 14.63.
In the only other running
performance for the Lady
Bulldogs, freshman Whit-
ney Grant placed third in the
100-meter intermediate hur-
dles with a time of 17.63, just
1/100th of a second off of her
PR.
"It was good to see that,
breaking into the 17s again,"
Sanders said. "That shows
where she is."
In field events, Shum-
way placed second in the long
jump with a leap of 15-10¼.
"She's very close to that
16-foot mark," Sanders said.
"In the last couple of weeks
she's been at 15-11 and 15-
10. That's really great to see."
Freshman Chayli McAr-
thur placed third in the tri-
ple jump with a jump of 31-
7, and she placed fourth in
the high jump, clearing 4-4.
Hinckley finished 16th in the
long jump at 11-93A.
Sophomore Katie Hoover
placed sixth in the shot put
with a throw of 30-3 34 and
threw the discus 62-8. Sa-
mantha Stevens threw the
shot 20-11 and the discus 59-
23A.
"Katie's been throwing
well in the shot put," Sand-
ers said. "That's twice in a
row that she hit the 30-foot
mark. She has made steady
improvement there."
BOYS RESULTS
Sanders named sopho-
more Kade Englert as the
male athlete of the week.
Englert placed second and
qualified for State in the pole
vault by clearing 11-6, a per-
sonal record.
"Coach (Daniel) Robert-
son has been trying to get
him to vault with more con-
trol, and it's been helping
him out," Sanders noted.
Englert also placed third
in the high jump, clearing
5-8.
Sophomore Calin McAr-
thur won the 400-meter dash
with a personal-record time
of 57.02.
"That's not blazing, but
it's his best time," Sanders
said. "We'd like him to be in
the low 56 or possibly the 55
range for the 1,600-meter re-
lay."
Michael Brightly fin-
ished 20th in the 100-meter
dash with a time of 12.82,
and Aaron Monterde ran
13.37. Mysen McArthur fin-
ished 14th in the 200-meter
dash with a time of 27.12, a
PR.
Brightly placed fourth in
the 400-meter dash at 58.47,
and Mysen McArthur was
llth at 1:02.21. He also fin-
ished 13th in the 800 meters
with a time of 2:31.52. Mi-
chael Steiner finished 12th in
the i,600 meters with a time
of 5:55.58.
AJ Dickson placed sec-
ond in the 3,200 with a time
of 11:14.44.
Sanders had praise for
sophomore Derek Phelps,
who improved dramatically
in the 110- and 300-meter
hurdles. Phelps cut nearly
two seconds off his PR in the
110 hurdles and placed ninth
with a time of 19.81, and he
slashed five seconds off his
best time in the 300 hurdles,
finishing 14th with a time of
50.54.
"Derek had a great prac-
tice on Thursday and got
PRs in both hurdle events
Friday," Sanders said. "We
could see it coming with his
practice Thursday. Zeke Col-
lins, too."
Collins ran a personal-
record time of 49.47 in the
300 hurdles to finish 13th.
In field events, Calin
McArthur placed fifth in the
long jump with a leap of 18-
6, and Englert was right be-
hind him in ninth at 18-1.
Mysen McArthur was llth in
the triple jump at 36-%, Seth
Kite was 18th at 33-10, a per-
sonal record.
"Seth is starting to catch
on to the technique in the tri-
ple jump, same with Mysen,"
Sanders said.
In throwing events,
freshman Alex Connour
threw a personal-record 33-1
to finish 11th in the shot put
and threw the discus 97-3 to
finish 11th. McKay Mayes
finished 18th in the shot pug
with a toss of 31-1034, and
Jacob Price was 19th at 31-
2. Tyler Tillett threw the shot
23-4.
Aaron Monterde blew
away his PR in the discus
and placed eighth with a
throw of 98-11½.
"He was close to 100 feet
and that was exciting to see,'!
Sanders noted.
Tillett threw the dis,
cus 71-8, and Sloan Calvin
flipped the discus 54-634.
REGIONALS
The Bulldogs will be
back at full strength for the
2A West Regionals in River4
ton this Friday and Satur-
day. Sanders said the Lovell
lineup is pretty much set.
"Every week we post the
top four in every event, and
for the most part that will an-
swer the questions we have,"
he said. "In some cases we
had a run-off or a jump-off,
and we will review this with
our coaches, but we're set
for Regionals. People know
where they're at."
Action begins Friday at 9
a.m. and again Saturday at 9
for running events and fiel d
events.
Class 2A will share the
meet with both Class 1A and
Class 4A teams.
Grizz prep for Regionals at Thermopolis meet Coaches
BY DAVID PECK three setting personal re- Kirby Winland ninth at 37- needed as
The Rocky Mountain
Grizzlies tuned up for the
regional track meet at
the ThermopoHs Pre-Re-
gional Friday, and coach
Dave Beemer said all is
just about ready for the 2A
West Regional in Riverton
this weekend.
The 2A West Regional
starts Friday and contin-
ues Saturday in Riverton,
with action beginning at 9
a.m. each day. Also com-
peting will be 1A and 4A
athletes.
"We're backing off on
the jumps," Beemer said.
"We're tapering off on any-
one jumping. We'll run
pretty good Monday and
Tuesday, then have a light
workout Wednesday."
In the pre-regional Fri-
day, the quartet of Joey
Jewell, Cannon Simmons,
Kirby Winland and Derik
Romero pre-qualified for
the state track meet with
a time of 46.97, good for
fourth place at Thermop.
"There was a lot of
speed down there. Dubois
and Big Piney had some
real burners," Beemer
said. "We pre-qualified and
got fourth. It was bizarre.
We had two handoffs that
weren't great. I think we
can still knock half a sec-
ond off."
In other pre-region-
al highlights, the Rocky
400-meter dash runners had
a good day, with two of the
cords. Jake Loyning placed
sixth with a time of 59.16
(PR), Brady Winland: sev:
enth at 59.30 and Caleb Hor-
rocks eighth at 59.48 (PR).

ter dash with a time of
11.86, and Austin Brost

27.23.
Ward was strong, once
again, in the hurdles rac-
es. The junior placed fifth
in the ll0-meter high hur-
dles with a time of 17.90
and fourth in the 300-me-
ter intermediate hurdles at
44.89, a personal record.
"Bryce has been work-
ing hard on the 300s,"
Beemer said. "His problem
is he's going to have to go
to Regionals and run eight
races in two days with pre-
liminaries. But they'll be
spread out."
Casey Banks slashed
38 seconds off his person-
al record in the 3,200 and
placed sixth with a time of
11:45.84.
In field events, Jewell
placed fourth in the long
