10 advance to state meet
Humboldt crowned 17 individual champions and also had many top four finishes competing in the Special Olympics track meet in Fort Dodge on April 8.
“The weather was certainly not in our favor but that did not bring down our athletes,” Humboldt coach Ashley Mohr said. “We had 17 athletes participate in a running and field event each and we brought home 17 first-place medals.”
“Out of the 17 athletes, 10 of them will be moving on to state competition in Ames on May 20,” Mohr said.
Advancing to state next month for Humboldt is Anthony Brown, Monica Sias, Cooper Peters, Adam Duffy, Cami Pederson, Brent Oberhelman, Emily Fortner, Jon Nelson, Justin Wurn and Gage Pederson.
