“The discus boys keep battling it out,” said Ferber. “Kevin and Keith have a nice Panther competition going.”Other NRHEG places: Cordell Peterson, third, pole vault, 8-6; 4x800 relay, third, 9:34.19 (Karter Sletten, Tyler Schlaak, John Cole, Hans Frank); 4x200, fourth, 1:45.04 (Kiel Sletten, Karter Sletten, Nathan Krause, Johnson); Johnson, fifth, long jump.
