The Warsaw boys track team opened Northern Lakes Conference play with a pair wins at Foreman Field in Goshen, toping Goshen 91-32 and Mishawaka 70-59.

As expected for a first outdoor meet of the season, athletes and coaches were anxious and eager to compete and there were many performances that were worthy of early season praise.

A multitude of Personal Bests were established by new and veteran athletes alike throughout the night.

Warsaw swept the Discus event by taking the top 4 spots and also went 1-2 in Shot Put for valuable team points.
Kam Kauffman had an impressive Shot Put PR toss of 53' 6" to win that event.
Talan Asay leaped a new PR of 21' 3" in the Long Jump to take the top spot and ran impressive 100m and 200m races to pick up valuable 3rd place finishes with new PRs. Jackson WIney had a break out night as a returning Varsity runner by chasing down the field in the final 50 meters of the 400m to win in a new best time of 52.14.
Other outstanding efforts from the Warsaw Tigers included:
Jordan Randall- High Jump (1st) in 6' 8" (leading the State leaderboard for outdoor T&F!)
Blake Keene- 300H (2nd) PR
Eric Pohl- 110H (2nd) PR; 300H (3rd) PR
Evan Davis- 100m (3rd) PR by nearly .5 seconds
Eibyl Long- Long Jump cleared 19' 1.75" in his first meet
Owen Meerzo- 3200m dropped over a minute from his previous best time
Sprinters/Hurdlers had 33 new PRs
Distance Crew had 23 new PRs
Shot Put squad had 11 new PRs
Discus squad had 6 new PRs

There was no pole vault competition due to high winds. 

""We talked in the locker room prior to the meet about the importance of these NLC meets and more importantly, the importance of preparing and performing at our best," Head Coach Scott Erba said after the meet. "If we take care of warming up and mentally setting up a race or event where we leave nothing behind, we can accept any result. If another athlete or team beats us at our best, we will tip our hats to them and then re-evaluate what we need to do to perform at an even higher level. We certainly do not want to walk away feeling we could have done more."
