The Caledonia boys track and field team finished their season at Rockford by having 11 qualifiers competing at the MHSAA Division 1 State Meet on Saturday. It was awesome to watch so many amazing athletes compete for state titles! The highlight of the meet was the 4x800 relay team of Josh Oom, Donavan Mattson, Andy Adams, and Caden Dixon securing All-State honors by placing 7th overall by dropping 3 seconds off of their personal best in 7:55.78 seconds. The team was less than a second from the school record! Those were the 2 points the team would score on the day. Others competing were as follows: Donavan Mattson - 1600 (11th, new PR of 4:19.27, 3rd all time in Caledonia history) Caleb Paarlberg - Shot Put (12th place - 47-01.50 feet) Carlo Aybar - Discus (13th place - 137-01) Jordan Gutierrez - Long Jump (16th place - 20-03.50 4x100 Relay - Isaac Gabrielse, Dharius Walker, Brock Townsend, Ethan Berends (17th place - 43.41 seconds)
