Wolves make noise at State…

For the first time in school history the Reeds Spring Wolves track team finished on the podium as a team at the state track meet in Jefferson City . The Wolves claimed third place in Class 3.
Led by their strong sprinters the Wolves got points from nearly everyone that qualified for the Championships. Korey Robinette and Ransom Allphin each qualified in four events and each brought home four medals.
Robinette finished second on the 200m and third in the 100m
Allphin won the bronze in the 300m hurdles
Both were part of the 4 x 100m relay state champs and the 4 x 200m relay team that finished third. Allphin anchored the 4 X 400m relay team to a third place finish.
Robinette and Alphin were joined by Colter Whitten and Matthew Krulic on the 4X200. And, by Keenan Haynes as well as Krulic on the championship 4X100. Allphin, Krulic, Gabe Corn, and Nick Haddock made up the 4 X 400.
The javelin was held for the first time as a exhibition sport and the Wolves’ Garrett Miller claimed the top prize in that event.
In all the Wolves amassed 42 points, falling short of only John Burroughs and Lamar.
This is a relatively young team. The Wolves will return the majority of these athletes next year, including the entire state champion 4 x 100 relay team. (two of which will be in the Wolves backfield when football season rolls around.)
School records fell time and time again. A great season, no matter how you look at it… Congrats to all the athletes and coaches……..
