Winhawks Track and Field Dominates Big Nine Conference Meet

Winona Senior High School’s track and field teams swept the Big Nine Conference championships Saturday at Winona’s Sieracki Field, with both the boys’ and girls’ squads claiming team titles in convincing fashion.

The boys’ team was led by senior sprinter DeAndre Jackson, who won the 100-meter dash in 10.78 seconds and anchored the winning 4×100 relay. Junior distance runner Ella Bergmann took the girls’ 1600 and 3200 meter events in times that rank among the state’s best this season.

“Winning conference on our home track is special,” said girls’ head coach Kim Wachholz. “These kids train on this track every day, and they showed the whole conference what Winona is about.”

Both teams now turn their attention to the Section 1AA meet in two weeks, where top finishers will advance to the Minnesota State Championships in St. Paul.
