Eagles track impressive at invite
by Jason Stone

DVUSD - It was delayed a week because of rain, but the North Canyon Invitational track meet turned out to be an event Sandra Day O'Connor found worth waiting for.
In a meet packed with some of the top teams in the state March 18, the Eagles finished sixth on the girls side and ninth in the boys competition. Despite some schools not participating on the make up date, O'Connor girls coach Brian Dempsey said his team still turned in an inspired performance.

"It was a little bit of a less quality meet than it would have been last weekend," Dempsey said. "It was a little bit watered down but our times weren't watered down. We had a really good meet."

O'Connor's girls had a trio of first place finishers, as Nicole Elliott won the shot put with a heave of 34 feet, 2 inches. The Eagles' 4x800 meter relay team qualified for the state meet in May with a winning time of 10 minutes, 9.28 seconds. And Lindsay Prescott won the 3,200 with a time of 11:10.70-the fastest in the state this season.

Prescott joined Camille Olson, Aliena Eisenhauer and Renee Peck as part of the winning relay team.

For O'Connor's boys, Spencer Morgan led the way by winning the 800 in 2:02. Steve Jones fared well in the triple jump, finishing sixth with a leap of 40 feet, 1.5 inches.

The Eagles will next compete in the Chandler Rotary Invitational March 24 and 25 at Chandler High School.
