Mount Vernon/Plankinton’s junior Berkeley Engelland has the fastest 800 meter run in South Dakota (2:10.78), the fastest 400 meter dash (:58.07) in Class A and the second fastest Class A times in the 200 meter dash (:26.13) and 100 meter dash (:12.34). 

Teammate Reagan Rus has top marks in the 110 meter hurdles (:15.59) and 300 meter hurdles (:46.93). 

Sioux Valley’s Isabelle Bloker has top marks in the 1,600 meter run (5:06.24) and 3,200 meter run (10:59.34).
