Michael Mesias finished tied for second in bantam boys aggregate, which included his success in 200m, long jump, javelin and 100m.

Season highlights

Coach Seerey said track-and-field makes up a big part of the Invermay School student experience.

“We are very fortunate that 75 per cent of our student population take pride in being on the Eagles Track team. We have a very dedicated group who come out to practice rain or shine. 

Our athletes finished in the top five at districts in 25 events.”

There were many individual highlights at districts, including gold for Rachel Enge in the senior girls javelin.

“Rachel threw a 30.57 metre javelin, which is four metres further than her personal best to capture her gold medal,” said Seerey.

Michael Mesias had a big meet, bringing home three bantam boys medals: gold in 200m and javelin, and silver in 100m.

“Michael was only 20cm short of breaking the javelin record for bantam boys of 39.43metres.”

“Aron Cudal threw a monstrous 47.33 metres in senior boys javelin to win his gold medal…the silver medalist was eight metres shorter.”

Cassidy Bosovich was one of the youngest athletes to qualify for provincials.

“Cassidy is actually bantam aged but was moved up to the intermediate category to give her an opportunity to go to provincials,” said Seerey. “She surpassed her expectations in javelin with a personal best throw of 26.03 metres for a silver medal.”

The six Invermay athletes who qualified for provincials in Saskatoon on June 7-8 are:

Angelo Ferenal (intermediate boys hurdles), Cassidy Bosovich (intermediate girls javelin), Bailey Maier (senior girls high jump), Lance Corpuz (senior boys shot put), Rachel Enge (senior girls javelin) and Aron Cudal (senior boys javelin,long jump, 100m and 4 by 100m relay).
