The discus boys continued to battle it out.
T.J. Schiltz continued to cruise.
Schiltz, already enjoying an excellent spring, won the 1600 meters while Kevin Kalis and Keith Maxon went 2-3 in the discus. The NRHEG boys’ track and field team finished fifth in the lightning-shortened Blooming Prairie True Team Invitational Tuesday, April 30.
“T.J. ran a nice mile for the win,” said Panthers coach Duey Ferber.
Schiltz clocked 4:40.97.
Kalis, meanwhile, tossed the discus 115-11 for second, followed closely by Maxon at 112-3.
