Even before the WIAA boys state basketball tournament games were held, high school spring sports got underway, with a handful of Shawano boys track members competing in the Oshkosh High School Invitational at UW-Oshkosh on March 12.
The Hawks didn’t field a full team and ended up with three points, placing last out of 22 teams. Stevens Point won with 80 points.
Senior Ethan Onesti placed sixth in the 1,600-meter run in 4:36.04. That finish led to Shawano’s only points.
In the 400-meter dash, sophomore Joshua Lesperance placed 26th in 59.44. He was 22nd in the triple jump at 35 feet 5.5 inches.
Onesti finished 10th in the 800-meter run in 2:05.36, while junior Trevor Schwartz was 30th with a time of 2:23.48.
Micah Welander, a freshman, finished in 29th place in the 200-meter dash in 26.89.
Fellow freshman Josiah Kuehl placed ninth in the 3,200-meter run, finishing out spot out of the scoring, with a time of 10:49.97.
Senior Ryan Shanty tied at 21st in the long jump at 18-03. Welander was 33rd at 15 feet even.
In the preliminaries, Shanty placed 40th in the 60-meter dash with a time of 7.88 seconds but did not qualify for the final race.
