GLADSTONE — The Gladstone boys made it interesting, but Marquette prevailed in the Great Northern Conference track meet here Thursday.

Marquette scored 113 points, followed by defending champ Gladstone 105, Kingsford 72, Escanaba 45 and Menominee 16.

“It came down to the last few events,” said Marquette coach Kyle Detmers. “Gladstone has a great team. We’re thankful they hosted this meet.”

The Marquette girls retained their title with 127 points. They were followed by Esky 91 1/2, Menominee 78, Gladstone 45 1/2 and Kingsford 11.

Gladstone senior Blake Servant won the boys’ 100-meter hurdles in 15.61 seconds and 300s (41.85) and discus at 144 feet and placed second in long jump (19-10 1/4).

Marquette made a clean sweep of the relays, and Carson Vanderschaaf broke the 10-minute barrier in the 3200 at 9:49.53.

Senior Kameron Karp added victories in the 100 (15.61) and 200 (23.75).

Kingsford’s Cole Myllyla won long jump (20-1 1/4). Chris Tappy added a first in shot put (40-1/2), and Chris Carollo took the 400 (53.79).

“Senior Melanie Wenzel took third in the 800, she ran hard and had a strong finish,” said Kingsford girls track coach Lisa Harry.

Senior Emma Allen took fourth on the 400 and fifth in the 200.

“Emma was up against some really fast girls but competed tough, she hung in there,” Harry said. “Our relays struggled a bit today. It was really cold out so I am going to blame the chilly weather for some slower times. We’re looking forward to U.P. Finals as we have 10 girls who qualified.”

Sophomore Baux Truckey provided the Marquette girls with victories in the 100 (12.93) and 200 (27.11) and anchored the winning sprint relays.

Menominee senior Makenzie Wellner won the 400 (1:00.68), missing the school record by just .08 seconds. She also took the 100 hurdles (16.08), long jump with a personal-best leap of 16-6 3/4 and led off the winning 1600 relay.

All of the teams are idle until June 5 when they visit Kingsford for the Upper Peninsula Finals.
