Illinois High School Track & Field Weekend Highlights – May 4, 2025

 

By Michael Newman

 

In some parts of this state, athletes and coaches are wondering when the warm weather will come. It is coming sooner than we think. But this is outdoor track in Illinois. You must learn to deal with the elements and persevere in those moments. This is not the sterile atmosphere of the indoor track. The IHSA will not be building banked curves on the Big Blue Oval at Eastern Illinois University. Sorry to burst that bubble for some of you.

 

There were top performances achieved across the state on a windy but misty night in the Chicago area meets. Saturday’s meets we saw the sun with the winds deciding to stick around for just one day longer.

 

Here are highlights of some of the meets that took place over the weekend. We head into next week with conference meets for the Girls teams and the last weekend of invitational meets for Boys team. Things are heating up as we head to Charleston where the fun will begin.

 

Tiger Invitational @ Wheaton-Warrenville South – The 47 edition of this meet put up some great performances that started in warm weather, temperatures dropped when rain hit during the hurdles and 1600 and then turned calm allowing a great 4×400 Meter Relay.

Undefeated records on the line in Staceyville, the only two undefeated baseball teams in the Aroostook League faced off Tuesday.

Katahdin had an 8-0 lead in the 5th inning.

Fort Fairfield slowing down this offense in the 5th, they would escape the inning without giving up a run.

Now they’ll want to score a run if they want to avoid a potential 10 run mercy rule, Katahdin won’t be able to get the out over at first base, the runner is breaking for home, we won’t see the umpire make the call but as we know by the final score the run didn’t count.

The Cougars staying mentally tough even late in the game.

More scoring in the same inning, one run comes home to score easily while she gets in with a sliding double, 8-0 Lady Cougars.

Polly Cullen pitched a no hitter this game, but Katahdin didn’t hold Fort Fairfield scoreless.

Addison Cole came home scoring their only run in this game.

Katahdin wins 11-1.

Avery Cullen hit a single and a double, Jayden Stevens had a multi-home run game with a two run shot and a solo homer, Dakota Stevens hit two singles, and Emily McNally hit a double.

A buggy Tuesday afternoon in Ashland for baseball and softball action.

A walk and two steals put a runner 60 feet from home plate with just one out.

Callie Thomas would be responsible for bringing that runner home, she reaches first safely, Lily Burtt scores, and Cassie Codrey over to third.

To the bottom of the first, Emma Doughty gets her first of four hits on the day here, getting the first hit for the Hornets.

Haily Poulin at the plate, Ashland trailing 1-0 in the first, that ball will get down into the outfield, Doughty scores her first run of the day, 1-1.

The game was close at first, getting to 3-3 at one point.

The Lady Hornets lost the first time these teams played, 12-5, Tuesday was different, Ashland won 17-7.
