Stanwood athletes notch nine firsts

EVERETT — The Stanwood girls used nine first-place finishes to place first Thursday night in a Wesco North tri-meet at Everett Memorial Stadium against Snohomish and host Cascade.

“For an opening meet there were a lot of good performances,” Cascade coach Steve Bertrand said, “Stanwood scored across the board … (And) they had nice depth.”

Stanwood racked up 75 team points; Snohomish placed second, sweeping the high and long jumps to post 68, and Cascade used strong performances from Brittney Jones, Samantha Taylor and Breanna Huschka to finish third with 49.

Taylor won the 400-meter dash for Cascade in a time of 1 minute, 3.45 seconds, Jones won both the shot put and discus and Breanna Huschka took the 800 in 2:30.

All athletes had to compete in cold and wet conditions that got worse as time went on, forcing some to seek shelter from the rain, Bertrand said.

Cascade met its goal of getting its young squad meet exposure. “We need experience right now,” Bertrand said.
