In the first team meet of the season, Jeff beat the old Camas County High School discus record. The old record was set (by an LDS boy named Bruce Funk, his mother is still in our Branch,) back in 1972 and was 135' 5-1/2" (41.29m.) Jeff threw 140' 9" (42.90m.) Prior to today, the furthest he had thrown in a meet was 128' 8" (39.22m;) that's a 12' 1" 3.68m) PR for him in the discus. He threw 40' 5-1/2" (12.33m) in the discus, also a new PR. His old shot record was 38' 6", nearly a 2' PR. In all, he had a good day.
There wer 9 schools there today. He placed 1st in the discus (second place was 129' 11" (39.40m,) and he placed 3rd in the shot put. We are excited that he has had such a good start to the season. Keep watching back here for more updates. His next meet is one week from today, Thursday April 10th.
