  the Class two A three hundred meter hurdles, arts, crossing

  the finish line in thirty eight point sixty six seconds.

  Once I started, I was feeling really good, Leebart said.
• 0:45
  I was up there with everyone, and then the top
• 0:48
  three started to pull away near the end, and then
• 0:51
  the last three hurdles, I felt like I started to
• 0:54
  catch up, but I wasn't able to catch them. But
• 0:56
  I'm still extremely proud of myself of getting fourth. It's
• 1:00
  something I never would have dreamed of. It's amazing to
• 1:03
  end my high school career earning all State. I stepped
• 1:07
  onto the track knowing it was going to be for
• 1:09
  the last time racing, so I'm really happy I got
• 1:11
  to end out my season like this. Also in two A,

  has been our goal all season. Stillwell said, I know
• 2:00
  we were in the hunt for this all season, but
• 2:02
  I'm proud of how we worked all season and this
• 2:04
  didn't come magically. We got to state for the first
• 2:08
  time when three of us were sophomores and Cayden was
• 2:10
  a freshman. Swinson said, We've been growing with each other
• 2:15
  the past three years. We've been dreaming about it since
• 2:17
  that start, and we're so blessed to be here. Us boys.
• 2:21
  We push each other every day and even in the
• 2:23
  practices that I didn't want to go to, they'd still
• 2:26
  pushed and got us all training and working hard. Brockway said,
• 2:30
  what we ran is the outcome of our season, and
• 2:32
  we put in the work for the last three or
• 2:34
  four seasons. It was just a good season and I'm
• 2:37
  glad of the outcome of what we had. This has
• 2:41
  been an amazing season. Hamer said, I've enjoyed all the
• 2:44
  memories I've made with these boys. I'm going to miss them.
• 2:47
  I'm so glad we could finish it out this year.
