Clarion-Goldfield-Dows boys track opened its indoor season at Wartburg College in Waverly in March 2016, with longtime coach Craig Warnke’s team posting several solid marks.
In the high jump, Andrew Conlon tied for 20th at 5 feet 2 inches and Riley State tied for 23rd at 5 feet. Sam Urness placed 20th of 41 in the long jump at 18 feet 2.5 inches, and Cameron Jergenson was 38th at 15 feet 6.5 inches. Kane Mendoza threw the shot 21 feet 7 inches.
In the 55-meter dash prelims, Bryce Hamilton was sixth in his heat in 7.25 seconds and Zach Leist eighth in his in 8.41. In the 55-meter hurdles, Chase Harker ran 9.89 and Sergio Arragon 10.89, both seventh in their heats. None advanced to finals.
Indoor meets at Wartburg are an early-season check for many north Iowa programs before the outdoor schedule starts.
