In his last preliminary race of his high school career, Logan Marconi pushed himself to a new personal record Friday in the qualifying prelims at the state track meet in Yakima, running the 800 meters in 2 minutes, 3.81 seconds.
That time in a field of 16 top competitors, just 3.04 seconds behind top qualifier Shawn Jones, of St. George's, got the senior to the starting blocks in the finals on Saturday, where he would take seventh in the state for Lake Roosevelt High School.
His time in the finals of 2:04.76 put him on the podium at the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association 1B, 2B, 1A State Track & Field Championships for the boys' 2B 800 run.
"Logan ended up seventh in finals and on the medal stand," enthused LR Head Coach Lori Adkins. "We couldn't be any prouder of Logan and the hard work he put in this season. What an awesome way to end his high school sports career!"
