Henderson Invitational
On Friday night, ELCO joined ninety-six other high school teams in West Chester for the highly competitive, 18th installment of the Henderson Invitational. The meet drew teams from across southeastern Pennsylvania and even brought in teams from New Jersey. For an example as to the size of this meet, there were eighty-eight boys who competed in the 200m.
Coming off of the Lebanon County Meet on Thursday night, there was no telling how the Raiders would respond when faced with meets on back-to-back days. They passed this challenge with flying colors, which is a good omen for the championship season which will often require events to be run over the course of multiple days.
The biggest highlight for ELCO came when Colin Daub took 1st place in the Discus with an impressive heave of 154’7″. This measurement is nearly 11′ longer than the throw that got him into States last season. Daub was not the only Raider with an impressive performance on the night, as Triple Jumper Alden Stickler finished 6th with a season-best leap of 42’8.5”. ELCO must have been feeling extra springy as Makenna Haas also had a season-best jump of 35’3.5″ to finish 7th in the Girls competition. Rounding ELCO’s top-eight finishers was Luke Macchione who ran a 41.20 in the 300m IM Hurdles to claim 8th.
