Levora, Alamillo, Wahl shine at District 1 All-Star Meet
Bonner County Daily Bee | UPDATED 11 years, 8 months AGO
POST FALLS — Sandpoint distance coach Matt Brass knew his 19 year-old school record in the 1,600 had a short shelf life, watching his protege Sam Levora steadily creep toward the mark.
The time came on Thursday, at the annual District 1 All-Star Meet at Post Falls, when Levora blazed a 4:21.52 to win the 1,600 and break Brass’s time of 4:25.52, set nearly two decades ago.
Levora and Brass were confident the record would fall before the race, in easily the best conditions of the season.
“Basically from the line, Coach Brass said some words to me about today being the day to break the record,” Levora said. “Throughout the race and that first lap, I knew I could do it. I was really going off what encouragement he was giving me and saying that I could do it.”
Brass might have been the happiest of the two, as he and Levora have logged a ton of training miles together.
“It’s fantastic,” Brass said. “Records are there to be broken. I’m thrilled and have been working with him for the last couple of years to get this. He’s been outstanding and is one of a core group of 25 kids that has bought into the program and does the work in the offseason. He’s been great and sets a great example and earned every second of it today.”
Levora doubled up to win the 3,200 as well in a meet that saw a host of Bulldogs set personal bests.
Senior Chris Turnbull was second in the 100, Matthew Burgstahler just missed breaking the two-minute mark to finish second in the 800, Todd Pays was third in the shot and discus and Chase Rodriguez third in the long jump to lead the Bulldog boys.
Nikole Alamillo won the discus by more than 13 feet, and Lani Wahl surprised the field to win the triple jump, edging Post Falls’ Dani Failor by two inches with a jump of 33-7.
Maddie Suppiger cleared 5-0 for the first time this year to finish third in the high jump, and Mikhaela Woodward was third in the 1,600 to lead the Bulldog girls.
No team scores were kept.
