’23
Talen Farland- (Bismarck Legacy) 100m (11.35, 8th) 200m (22.64, 8th) & 4x100m relay Class A Champions. Another solid performance for this kid sprinting 800m on the weekend and continuing to keep them at a fast pace.
Ryan Brynjolfson Ryan Brynjolfson 6'1" | 175 lbs | DB Bismarck Century | 2023 State – (Bismarck Century) 110m Hurdles (14.81, 2nd), 4x100m relay (2nd), Long Jump (22’9″) & High Jump (6’4″) Class A Champion. Four medals in a weekend is impressive, but being runner-up in two events and champion in another two events shows that he’s able to keep up intensity and perform at a high level.
Jacob Burckhard- (Bismarck Century) Discus (157’11″, 2nd) Shot Put (55’9″) Class A Champion. Top two in the throwing events, tells me he either has a lot of strength, or is fundamentally sound on his technique with his footwork.
Jaxson Walz- (Bismarck Century) Shot Put (51’1″, 4th), Discus (153’5″, 5th) Two top five finishes for the weekend is pretty good, especially when you’re battling your teammates for spots 1-5 in both of them.
Logan Arason Logan Arason 6'3" | 245 lbs | TE GF Red River | 2023 State – (Grand Forks Red River) Javelin (179’3″, 2nd) Discus (170’9″) Class A Champion. Top two in both the events where you HAVE to be fundamentally sound to be successful in them.
Eli Hayes- (Fargo Davies) Shot Put (48’8″, 10th) Discus (144’1″, 8th), Javelin (175’10, 3rd). Finishing top ten in all three throwing events is very impressive in my eyes.
Ty Allen- (Bismarck) High Jump (5’11″, 9th), Triple Jump (43’10.5″, 3rd), & 4x100m relay (7th). Placing in his two jumps then coming back and medaling in a relay shows he has a lot of fast-twitch muscles that he knows how to use.
’24
Justin Zulu- (Fargo South) 200m (22.51, 6th), 400m (49.62, 4th), 4x200m & 4x400m relay Class A Champions. Four top six finishes while sprinting 2,000 meters on the weekend is a very successful weekend.
