In a busy last week of the regular season, the Warhawks were competitive in both the Richmond/ Erickson Invitational in Wauwatosa on May 8 and in the Cedarburg true team meet on May 11.

Coach Greg Siegert was pleased with the effort, noting that the 400 relay team of Sammie Gassner, Bethany Laubenheimer, Sydney Langmann and Jayne Bertieri set a meet record at the Richmond/ Erickson event and noted that discus thrower Melissa Asmondy turned in a great effort of 109 feet in her event.

Laubenheimer is back three weeks early from a shoulder injury, another encouraging factor for the Warhawks said Siegert.

Germantown took part in the North Shore Conference outdoor on Tuesday and looks forward to the WIAA regional meet at Sussex Hamilton on May 21.

In the Cedarburg true team meet, where scoring was to 36 places, Germantown was third behind West Bend West and Homestead.

Caitlin Dillon continued her senior season resurgence with a first in the 1,600 (5:17.0) and a second in the 800 (2:22.57) while Jennifer Ellis had another good meet, taking second in the 100 high hurdles (15.95) and third in the 300 low hurdles (46.93).

"Jennifer makes it easy for everyone on the coaching staff because we know exactly what we're getting from her every time," Siegert said.

The 400 relay team of Gassner, Laubenheimer, Langmann and Bertieri was second with a season best of 50.62, while Bertieri had an excellent individual meet, taking second in the 100 (12.57) and fourth in the 200 (26.41).

Germantown was fourth in the Richmond/Erickson meet with 102 points as Waterford won with 157. That record-setting 400 relay team turned in a time of 51.74.

Asmondy also won the shot put with a toss of 35-1 while Katelyn Turner was second (32-5) as Ellis also took the 300 low hurdles (47.14). Bertieri was second in the 100 (12.97), as was Dillon in the 1,600 (5:14.04), Andrea Brown in the 800 (2:32.47) and the 800 relay (1:50.87).

Bertieri was third in the 200 (26.68).
