Forks boys, girls fourth

MONTESANO — The Spartans boys and girls swept the long-distance events at the Class 1A Evergreen League meet at Montesano High School on Thursday.

The top four in laned events (hurdles, sprints, relays) and top six in all other events advanced to the 1A Southwest District 4 meet at Woodland High School on Thursday.

Wesley Camacho was the lone double-event winner for Forks, claiming the 1,600-meter run with a time of four minutes, 57.98 seconds and the 3,200 in 11:27.15.

He beat teammate Matthew Larson in both events with Larson setting season-bests in the 1,600 (second in 5:11.81) and 3,200 (11:47.36).

“Both did really well,” Gale said of the pair.

Luke Dahlgren won the discus with a distance of 147 feet and was fourth in the shot put with a personal-record 45-10.25.

Skyler Steffen moved on to the district meet with a third in the discus (131-08) and a fifth-place finish in the javelin (114-09).

Freshman Hayden Queen also advanced by placing third in the high jump, clearing 5-06 and freshman Ashton Doyle set a personal record in the triple jump (36-09) to finish sixth and qualify for the district meet.

Spartans coach Pam Gale was proud of Doyle for his showing.

“It’s difficult for a freshman boy to compete against juniors and seniors, so him qualifying for districts is a big win,” Gale said.

Both Forks teams finished fourth overall at the league meet with scores of 70 (boys) and 71. Montesano claimed the boys team title with 210 points and Elma won the girls meet with 198 points.

On the girls side, senior Melisa Galindo won the girls 1,600 (6:28.77) and teammate Karen Ensastegui-Salazar triumphed in the 3,200 with a time of 14:04.42. She also finished second in the 1,600 (6:28.77) and Forks freshman Jeidi Ahilon set a personal record (7:27.26) in third.

Galindo is on to the district meet in the 800 after setting a personal record while placing third (2:46.39).

Freshman Candida Rose-Sandoval ended up third in the 300 hurdles in 55.09 and will compete at districts.

Rose-Sandoval, Macy Luong, Cassia Helvey and Myra Luong qualified with a fourth-place finish in the 4×100 relay (59.50) and the 4×400 team of Rose-Sandoval, Galindo, Ensastegui-Salazar and Syliva Torres placed fourth (4:59.33).

The top three in all events at the district meet will advance to state in Cheney over Memorial Day weekend.
