LANCASTER GIRLS SHOW WELL AT STATE INDOOR CHAMPIONSHIPS
The Lancaster Girls track and field team had three individuals compete last Saturday at the State Indoor Track Championships at the University of Akron.

Karissa Conrad led the Lady Gales with an All-Ohio finish in the 60 meter hurdles. Conrad was ranked 8th state wide going into the Championships. She ran a solid race to make the finals and in the championship race she ran a personal best time to take 5th place and earn the All-Ohio honors. Head coach John Zishka said that Conrad was pretty nervous but emphasized that she stayed in her prerace routine and controlled her emotions. "It was business as usual for her and she responded to the competition. Coach Rebekah Diehl has Karissa really focused on her technique At this high level it's the little things that make the difference."

Other Lady Gales competing were Kamry Aebersold in the Shot Put and the Weight Throw and Emily Flowers in the Triple Jump. Aebersold, ranking 19th in the shot put before the meet, was a late addition to the field and took advantage by placing 10th overall. Aebersold came back later to place 9th in the Weight Throw with a personal best effort. "Coach Aaron Henwood really progressed Kamry in the throws this indoor season. She peaked at the right time", said Zishka.

Emily Flowers placed 10th in the Triple Jump. Flower competed well said Zishka. "She has been nursing a sore hip flexor tendon the past couple of weeks so she stuggled a bit at the meet. She still out-jumped some pretty good kids today."

The Lady Gales will begin their outdoor season this Saturday at the Hammond Relays at Pickerington.

March 13, 2010 - CENTRAL DISTRICT INDOOR CHAMPIONSHIPS
LADY GALES SIXTH AT CENTRAL DISTRICT INDOOR CHAMPIONSHIPS
The Lancaster Girls Track team placed sixth in the Central District Indoor Championships last Saturday at Ohio State University. Kamry Aebersold led the Lady Gales scorers by throwing personal bests to take 2nd in the weight throw and 3rd in the shot put. Karissa Conrad also had an outstanding meet with a 2nd place and personal best in the 60 meter hurdles and a 5th place in the 200 meter dash. The 4 x 200m relay team of Dana McClurg, Emily Flowers, Erin Gerds, and Ashley Cook also ran a seasonal best to place 3rd overall. The 4 x 400 meter relay of Ashley Cook, Cara Glenn, Kelsey Conrad, and Courtney Heimberger placed fifth overall with their best time of the indoor season. Also scoring in the championship meet were Flowers taking 6th and Justina Baker 7th in the pole vault and Erin Gerds placing 8th in the high jump. Erica Smith ran a seasonl best in the mile run while Heimberger ran a personal best in the 60 meter and 200 meter dashes. In other events, Alexis Harris competed in the high jump, McClurg in the 60 meter hurdles, and Glenn ran the 60 meter dash, and Kristin White in the Shot Put for the Lady Gales.

Head coach John Zishka was pleased with all of the efforts by the Lady Gales but in particular with freshman Courtney Heimberger, sophomore Ashley Cook, and junior Kelsey Conrad. Zishka said, "both Courtney Heimberger and Kelsey Conrad are new to high school track and field and had outstanding meets. Hiemberger completed a very difficult triple and Kelsy Conrad had the fastest split in the 4 x 400 relay in just her very first race - ever! Cook ran two great legs on our relays and showed that she is going to a factor this season." Zishka however pointed to the performances of Aebersold and Karissa Conrad as the key to the Lady Gales team showing. "Not only are they scoring leaders in the track and field events but, they both were recently elected (as well as Betsy Noll) as captains because of the daily leadership they provide to our team."

The Lady Gales will finish the indoor season this Saturday by sending three athletes - Aebersold in the weight throw, Karissa Conrad in the 60 meter hurdles, and Flowers in the triple jump to the State Indoor Championships at the University of Akron. Zishka says, "we have talked about qualifying athletes for the state championships all season, and these girls have set goals and worked hard to achieve them. I know that they are not satisfied to just qualify for the state championships; they have been ranked in the top ten all season and want to perform their very best."

trackandfieldaward101503.jpg (31370 bytes)The 2003 Lancaster Girls Track and Field Team won the first ever State Power Ranking Championship.  This Award is for the team which accumulates the highest average score for the events normally contested in high school track and field meets.  Head Coach Doug Henwood says, " this is quite an honor, because it recognizes team strength as opposed to those teams which have one or two outstanding athletes. It gives a more accurate portrayal of the "best team" in the state.
