This weekend, at the Genesee Region, Livingston County, and Monroe County Track Championships, a list of local athletes walked away as double-winners – setting themselves up nicely for Sectionals later on this week.
At the GR Championships, on the girls side, Sophia Zwolinski did her best to help Pembroke to yet another GR League Title, sweeping the hurdle competitions with a time of 16.5 in the 100 H, and 1:08.06 in the 400 H. For Byron-Bergen, Reanne Dressler won both the Pole Vault (10’7″), and the 400 M (1:01.27), while Olivia George of Alexander finished first in the Long Jump (16’3.5″), and 100 M (12.89).
For the boys, Brandon Burke led all local athletes on Saturday as a triple-winner – finishing first in the High Jump (6’6″), Long Jump (21’7″), and Triple Jump (44′). Lucas Kohorst of Pembroke finished the day as a double-winner, winning the 400 M (52.69), and 800 M (2:09.28) – while his teammate Jon Doud joined him with wins in the 110 Hurdles (17.27), and 400 Hurdles (1:02.4). Rounding out the list of multi-winners at the GR Championships was Wheatland-Chili’s Dylan Vogel – who won the 3200 M (10:28.67), and 3000 M Steeplechase (10:30.04).
The Pembroke Girls finished as team champions, as did the Oakfield Boys.

The Letchworth girls and the Bath-Haverling Boys won the team titles.
