Selchow (3,200), Grahm Haldeman (300 hurdles) and Mikesell (triple jump) had fourth-place finishes and Dylan Norby tied for fourth in the pole vault. Ray Ebert (800), Logan McCoy (3,200), Joey Cook (300 hurdles) and Dominic Johnson (shot put) were each fifth.

“We ended up resting quite a few kids due to some nagging injuries, so we weren’t at full strength. It was nice to get the win, and our sprinters really stepped-up today, despite the strong headwind, to run some great races,” Menomonie boys coach Craig Olson said.

The Menomonie girls team claimed four event wins as the Mustangs were second in the team standings with 70 points, trailing River Falls (108).

Madeline Palmer was first in the 1,600 at 5:36.46, Isabella Jacobsen won the 3,200 in 11:26.00, Jordan Buttke was at the top of the results in the shot put with a top toss of 29-3 and the 3,200 relay team of Julia Skorczewski, Ali Ruch, Paige Anderson and Jacobsen finished first in 10:35.00.

Anderson (800), Shelby Thornton (long jump) and Buttke (discus) were runners-up in their events while the 1,600 relay team of Thornton, Ruch, Brooklyn Hoff and Skorczewski was also second.

Claire Ngo was third in the 300 hurdles, one spot ahead of Marlena Weghorn while also taking third in the pole vault, one spot in front of teammate Alexis Anderson. Anna Imsande came home third in the 1,600.
