Neither of the Blue Devils’ qualifiers in the boys’ Class 1A IHSA state track and field meet earned medals on Thursday (June 17).
Freshman Zach Ruwe, who was seeded 30th in the 800 meters, placed 28th with a time of 2 minutes, 6.70 seconds. He cut more than two seconds off the time he ran at sectionals.
Junior Daelin Price nearly matched his seed (20th) in the shot put. He placed 21st with a heave of 42 feet, 7 inches.
The state meet was held at Eastern Illinois University, in Charleston.
