Baker’s track and field team prepared for the upcoming district meet by hosting one of the region’s biggest meets on Friday, May 12 at BHS.

A total of 27 teams competed, including Powder Valley, Pine Eagle and Huntington.

Due to a glitch with the scoring system, team scores weren’t available by press time.

“We had lots of personal bests which is really exciting, the weather and competition set this up for the perfect meet,” Baker coach Suzy Cole said. “The kids are very excited about districts and the possibilities that they have in front of them. This is always such a great way to go into districts as this meet brings most of the Eastern Oregon schools together and Eastern Oregon is blessed to have great talent.”

In the boys meet, Baker freshman Rasean Jones won three events — both hurdles races and the high jump. Jones also placed third in the 100-meter dash.

Jones’ time in the 110 hurdles was the fastest among Class 4A runners this season. He has the fourth-fastest time in the 300 hurdles, set on April 28 in Hermiston.

“I just want to thank God for blessing me with natural abilities, and my coaches for pushing me every day,” Jones said.

Baker won the boys 4×400 relay. Team members are Thaddeus Pepera, Jaron Long, Giacomo Rigueiro and Malaki Myer.

Baker runners-up included Myer in the 400, Long in the 800, and Tate Powell in the discus.

In the girls meet, Baker’s Anna Belding was second in the 400.

Powder Valley’s Sky Nesser won the 200 and was second in the 200. Pine Eagle’s Ella Randall won the shot put.

The district meet will be Saturday, May 20 at La Grande, starting at 11 a.m.

The Class 1A district meet will be Friday, May 19 at Baker High School, starting at 10 a.m.
