    ARDEN HILLS — Junior Liberty Quast secured two first-place finishes and a teammate was the only person preventing her from a third as the Stillwater girls track and field team participated in the Mounds View Invitational on Monday, April 15 at Mounds View High School.

    The six-team meet was not scored, but the Ponies placed first in seven of 18 events. The event was originally scheduled for April 16, but moved ahead one day due poor weather conditions anticipated for Tuesday.

    Quast helped set the pace for Stillwater on the track, winning the 100- (12.62) and 200-meter (26.25) races and placing second in the 400 (59.85) behind teammate Karina Fischer (58.17). Karina Fischer placed second behind Quast in the 200 (26.65) but won the 400 in a time of 58.17. Stillwater seventh-grader Ari Riser followed Quast in third place in the 400 with a time of 1:01.20.

    Anya Williams added a fourth-place showing for the Ponies in the 100 (13.08) and Greta Shockey led Stillwater in the distance events with a fourth-place finish in the 1,600 meters in a time of 5:37.28.

    Kayla Kajer (16.35) and Mana’olana Kavapalu (17.84) placed second and fourth for the Ponies in the 100 hurdles while Ella Martens landed second in the 300 hurdles with a time of 49.19.

    Stillwater was also strong in the field events, including a 1-2 finish from Williams (5-4) and Kajer (4-10) in the high jump.

    Angela Taylor (16-7) and Toriahnna Nielsen (14-10 1/2) placed first and fourth for the Ponies in the long jump while Abigail Jungmann (9-0) and Nora Ribolzi (8-0) landed first and fourth in the pole vault.

    Sylvia Boyum was the top finisher in the shot put with a toss of 36-5 and Stillwater teammate Isabel Isaacson finished third in the discus with a distance of 96-9.

    Stillwater, which is scheduled to compete in the Bethel Invitational on April 26, also placed second on Monday in the 4x200 and 4x800 relays.
