The Austin girls track and field team had some strong individual performances, as it took ninth out of ten teams at the Big Nine invite in Winona Friday.

Abby Snater, a sophomore, set a new school record in the pole vault with a height of 10-8 and that earned her all-conference honors. The state standard for pole vault is 10-7, so if Snater reaches 10-8 at the section meet, she will advance to the state meet.

Austin’s Carolyn Hackel, an eighth grader, took fifth in the 100-meter dash and fourth in the 200-meter dash. Hackel set personal best times in both events at the meet.

Haley Splinter fought off a sickness to run a personal best time while taking sixth in the 800-meter run.
