School Records Broken!

Brooke Van Lenten beat the previous EC girls’ javelin record set by Schuyler Sietsma (’09) of 111 feet with her throw of 115 feet. Way to go!

Trent Braen beat the previous EC boys’ discus record, set by himself, with his throw of 157 feet and 4 inches. The last person to hold the record was Phil Steenstra in 1996 with a record of 144 feet. Congratulations!

Both the boys’ and girls’ 4X800 relay records were broken at the county meet as well. Sam Veenstra, Nico Cortes, Carter Heerema and Jake Veenstra recorded a 8:32.5 beating last year’s boys’ record of 8:36.3. Stephanie Cabral, Allie Steiginga, Anna Kinz and Emily Byrnes finished in 10:10.4 beating the previous girls’ record of 10:34.2 from 2014.
