Crandall girls shot putter was State Champion last year as a Sophomore. The Rowlett kid is AMAZING. He might win 5 golds in 5A at state this year. It was a possibility last year. Hes a Texas Signee for track.

[pancho villa]

How about Kenneth Turner of Snyder, who won the 100 and 200 meters at last year's state meet and returned without missing a beat this year.

[raider red 2000]

wharton...8th grade girl.
at needville

12.47 100
26.31 200
58.15 400

how does this compare to HS times yall have seen???

[LH Panther Mom]

There's a guy from Lampasas who has been throwing in the upper 160's in discus - 168' this past Saturday. It's nowhere near record breaking, but I wouldn't be surprised to see him make it to state, depending on that district & region. :thinking:

La Vega has some really good shot putters (and maybe discus...I forget). Also in the shot put, McGregor & (heck, old-timers) a 1A school in the Waco area have kids putting around 50'.

[Old Green]

Cuero's Isaiah Glover long jumped 23' 4.5" this past weekend

I'll watch out for her. We will see her at state.

[Black_Magic]

Snyder had a 7 grade Girl run a 60 last week.

China Spring has a two time state Qualifier returning in discus in the 155-60 range and threw 50 in the shot this past weekend.
Of coarse in Region I , there is only one slot open in discus and shot for the State meet.

Also a disc thrower in Argyle returning that was third in Regionals last year.

I figured he was throwing & have intended to ask, since my son said he didn't throw at the Gatesville meet. (And LOL at the open slot and you're probably right. ;) )

Hayden Ballilo, Everyone else is shooting for second

[CelinaCatFan]

He's the athlete from Whitesboro that threw 184-11 in the discus (1st place) and 66-01.25 in the shot put (1st place) last year at state.

Is he still there? If so, WOOHOO! :D

[Rabid Cougar]

I have been corrected .... Whitesboro is Region II.
Makes no difference. He is in a class unto himself.

[bigwood33]

Hayden Baillio is the Whitesboro senior thrower and yes, he IS in a class by himself. He won state in the shot both his soph and junior seasons and finished 2nd as a soph and 1st as a junior in the discus. He has signed with Texas and is awesome. He has already gone 66+ and 188+. He has thrown 70 and 210 in practice. We really think that the 3A state records will go down this year. Hayden has a very real chance for the 2nd longest throws in Texas High School History! Here are the top 10 performances ever in Texas.

Shot Put
81-3½ Michael Carter Dallas Thomas Jefferson 1979
72-3¼ Sam Walker Dallas Samuell 1968
71-2 Roger Roessler Round Rock 1996
69-7½i Stephen Saenz Rio Grande City 2009
68-10½ Jonathan Reeves Fort Bend Austin 2001
68-5 Jerry Ross Dallas Kimball 1978
68-4 Marvin Lewis Burton 1982
67-11½ Don Randell Dallas Sunset 1969
67-6½ Caesar O'Neal Huntsville 1992
67-3½ Billy Sims Galveston Ball 1987

Discus
215-2 Brian Robison Splendora 2002
210-9 Terry Pierce Fort Worth Western Hills 1999
209-6 Derek Randall Beeville 2002
208-8 Roger Roessler Round Rock 1996
206-0 Edmund Stansbury El Paso Irvin 1997
204-8 Michael Carter Dallas Thomas Jefferson 1979
204-2 Matt Lepsis Frisco 1992
203-9 Jonathan Reeves Fort Bend Austin 2001

i think she beat the boys times :)

[TinyTim]

Girls mature earlier than boys. This is not surprising. Especially in track. Check back in 2 years when it counts to see the results.

I don't think anyone will ever touch Michael Carter's shot put record of 81-3 1/2.

[BwdLions]

Brian Robison's discus record is pretty impressive too.
