2018 Spring Preview: Knights Look To Build On 2016 and Move Forward in 2017

  CLARENCE — 2017 saw the Knights send an event to the Drake Relays in Des Moines, and send five events to the 2017 state track and field meet. The Knights placed 8th at last spring’s River Valley Conference meet. Some of those on last year’s roster are back and some new faces look to make an impact this spring.

  The Knights sent their 4X100-meter relay team to the 2017 Drake Relays in Des Moines. The same relay team made up of Jacob Jensen, Bryce Bemer, Miles McCullough, and Greg Hansen would win the event at the RVC meet, running to a finish in 44.43. A week later, the Knights would send five events to the state track meet. The Knights 4X200, 4X100 and spring medley relay teams were joined by Seamus Raney in the 800 and Bryce Bemer in the 200-meter dash went to state. The highest placing event was the Knights 4X200-meter relay team of Jensen, Bemer, McCullough, and Hansen in 8th.

  Athletes out for track at North Cedar are: Kole Murray, Miles McCullough, Joe Condon, Shawn Kintz, Nate Neal, Caleb Baker, Devon Willis, Ryan Baker, Brody Hawtrey, Evan Peterson, Dan Moore, JT Kash, Jacob Sander, Skyler Darts, Ryan Spahr, Brady Lehrman, Ethan Sahr, Seamus Raney, Chance Cinkovich, Dragon Cinkovich, Brady Burcum, Canden Wendt, Greg Hansen, Treat Spahr, Owen Meyer.

  North Cedar will host a home track meet on Tuesday, April 24. The Knights will run at the River Valley Conference meet in West Liberty on Thursday, May 3. Before that, North Cedar will be competing at 9 outdoor meets. Two early meets have been canceled due to weather, at Tipton and at Durant. North Cedar will run at Tipton once, in DeWitt, Solon, Monticello, Northeast, Cascade, and Camanche.
