 The Frazee Hornets picked the right time to post some of their best times and results of the season.

Nine Hornets qualified for state in six different events, including three relays, at the section track meet last week. In addition to the nine athletes who qualified at the section meet another seven members of the track team qualified for state as an alternate. 

Among the highlights was a section championship and new school record in the 100-meter hurdles by freshman Aynslee Johannsen. The Frazee student posted a personal best time of 15.22 to not only qualify for state, but capture first place in the section. 

Johannsen was also a member of the 4×200-meter relay team that captured first place in the section with a time of 1:47.24. Members of the team were Aubree Bristlin, Jayden Sonnenberg, Brynn Larson and Johannsen. 

The girls 4×400-meter relay team of Johannsen, Sonnenberg, Larson and seventh grader Rilynn Ruiz captured second place with a time of 4:08.81. 

Sonnenberg and Larson both qualified for state in the high jump with Sonnenberg placing second with a jump of 5’2” and Larson placing sixth with a jump of 5’.

Tyden Schaefer qualified for state in the pole vault with a vault of 12’8” to finish in second place. 

Not-to-be-outdone, the 4×200-meter relay team of Schaefer, Carter Sonnenberg, Ayden Grossman and William Stroburg took fourth place and qualified for state with a time of 1:32.76.

The state track meet is set for June 10-12 at St. Michael-Albertville High School.
