John Scarffe, Nederland. Despite rain throughout, Nederland Middle School track and field athletes placed in three Boulder Valley School District final meets during the week of May 13 - 18, 2019. On May 13, sixth grade boys’ Mateo Beauvineau placed fourth in the 800 m run, and sixth grade girls’ Laila Waldron placed fourth in the 400m run and third in the discus.
The seventh and eighth grade boys participated in the district finals at Centaurus High School in Lafayette on May 16, 2019, competing with rain showers. Loic Masters placed third in the triple jump, and Lucas Schalz placed seventh in the 75m hurdles and eighth in the long jump.
Nederland Coaches Mary Joyce and John Leventhal ran the complicated triple jump event. They patiently explained to athletes from all the schools present how to improve their jump.
On Friday, May 17, 2019, the seventh and eighth girls competed in the district finals at Fairview High School in Boulder. Due to a rainstorm, they faced a 20-minute rain delay, but the competition went on. Kyleigh McLaughlin placed second in the triple jump.
