Howard Wood Dakota Relays in Sioux Falls - Laura Roesler from Fargo South is going to see some real competition. For those of you who don't know, Roesler won the 100, 200, 400, and 800 at last year's state meet as an 8th grader and took first in the state XC meet this fall as a freshman. Anyway, they're having a special 800 meter race with some of the best runners from ND, SD, MN, and Iowa.
How fast are these girls? Let's just say that if they competed in this year's North Central Conference outdoor meet, they'd probably take 7 of the 8 places. The person with the fourth best time is going to the U of Minnesota and has won six state titles in Minnesota so far (track and XC).
