Sioux Falls Washington junior Nyariek Kur picked up two Howard Wood titles over the weekend, winning the long jump and triple jump.

Kur has the best long jump in South Dakota this spring (18-2.25) and the best triple jump (38-11). She is also coming on strong in the 100-meter hurdles where she has the third fastest time (:15.17). 

The 1,600-meter run at the AA state track meet just got interesting. O’Gorman’s Libby Castelli has the fastest time (4:55.25) but Stevens senior Brionna Holso kicked past Castelli to win the 1,600-meter run at the Howard Wood Dakota Relays. 

Castelli did take the AA lead in the 800-meter run this week with a time of 2:14.97. 

The Brandon Valley girls didn’t break any records at the Howard Wood Dakota Relays but they put up some super-fast times in the longer relays. Brandon Valley has the top AA time in the 1,600-meter relay (3:57.91), the top time in the 3,200-meter relay (9:12.97) and the best time in the sprint medley relay (4:05.96). 

Aberdeen Central’s Ciara Frank is poised to score some big points for the Golden Eagles at the state track meet. Frank has the top AA high jump (5-5) and the second best long jump (18-2).
