Jun. 6—ST. MICHAEL — Samuel Huisinga put the finishing touches on a big weekend for the Willmar throwers.
A sophomore for the Cardinal boys, Huisinga secured fourth place in the boys' discus on Day 2 of the Class AA State Track and Field Championships Saturday at St. Michael-Albertville High School.
Huisinga's top toss came at 164 feet, 3 inches.
Over the two-day meet, the Cardinals won three medals in the discus. In the girls' discus on Friday, Maddison Molacek took first place and Isabelle Engel was fifth. Cami Oehlers also competed in the girls' discus, placing 11th.
It was a point of pride for Huisinga to add to the medal count on Saturday. "(We have) a lot of great throwers," Huisinga said. "Next year, we're hoping to bring six. I'm hoping to bring my two teammates Travis (Venenga) and Briggs (Baumgarn). We definitely can (do it)."
