Isaiah Baker-"As a senior I feel my role is to try and be the best leader I can for the younger people on the team. They need to have someone to look up to and help them with their events. As for my goals I'm hoping to try and get a 47 foot triple jump, break the school record for the long jump and beat my 6'6 high jump record and win State in the triple jump."

Allie Ostrowski-“I think as a captain my role is to be a leader, role model and a helping hand for everyone. My goal personally is to make sure that the environment of track is a fun space for everyone. It’s always fun to win but that’s not what makes track great. It’s your teammates, coaches and the people around you who help make you better. This season I want o focus on having fun and helping my teammates be the best version of themselves on and off the track.”

gobblers bring home some hardware at state track
The State Track Meet is over for the Class "A" participants and the Aitkin Gobblers should be pretty pleased with their efforts. Brita Westman didn't make the finals in the 100m hurdles, but Isaiah Baker and Ashley Asmus brought home medals in two of the three events they were entered. Baker won the silver medal, 2nd place in the triple jump Tuesday and Ashley Asmus finished 6th in the 800m run Wednesday after leading after 400m in a time of 1:08.526. Ashley talked about the race today, "It was tough weaving between people as I ran. The competition was so close, and it was such a great race. All the girls I ran against were so sweet and such great athletes which made it an incredible experience." Baker was also in the high jump but didn't medal in that event. Baker and Asmus will both return in 2026. Check the photos below, there are some beauties taken by Lex Hills.
