A final congratulations to senior Chase Ragar, who finished 24th in the triple jump at the class 2A IHSA State Preliminaries track meet yesterday. Though Chase's leap of 40' 7.75" fell short of his ultimate goal, he has much to be proud of! His hard work and dedication produced many fantastic accomplishments as an OHS track athlete. Among them, his top achievements include: the highest individual points scored on this year's OHS boys' team; the Most Valuable Field Events Athlete Award this season; the 3rd place All-Conference finish in the triple jump this year; 2-time (junior and senior years) Sectional Champ in the triple jump which gave him two state meet appearances at EIU. Chase is certainly one of the most decorated triple jump athletes in OHS history. Great job Chase, we're all proud of you!
If you have been thinking about joining the HS Cross Country team here is a great opportunity to get plugged in with team activities. Join us for a 2 day/night camp later in June as well as summer meet ups. please reach out to Coach Randi @ Randi.krehbiel@olympia.org with any questions.

Congratulations to IHSA Bass Fishing Sectional Champs, Dylan Langley and Clayton Grieder who won the Clinton Sectional yesterday with a total weight of 22.58lbs. Dylan also had the big bass for the sectional with 5.93lbs. They will compete at the IHSA State Bass Fishing Tournament on June 6 and 7 at Lake Shelbyville.
Olympia High School's girls track team wrapped up a memorable season with strong representation at the state prelims in Charleston at EIU. Although the results weren’t exactly what the team had hoped for, the girls demonstrated determination, teamwork, and the spirit of champions.
The 4x800 relay team — Amelia, Mira, Kaylie, and Emma — gave it their all, though the race didn’t unfold as they had envisioned. The 4x100 squad — Mya, Charlee, Madyson, and Gabby — delivered a standout performance with flawless handoffs and a strong finish. In the 4x400 relay, Charlee, Mira, Amelia, and Emma faced tough competition. While a few had an off day, their effort and heart were unmistakable.
In the field events, Charlee and Annaston represented Olympia in the long jump. Both athletes proudly hit the board — an impressive feat, especially as a sophomore and freshman. Just making it to state at their age is an accomplishment worth celebrating.
While the team had hoped to advance to finals and spend one more day in Charleston, the season still ends on a high note. Each of these athletes had an outstanding sectional and earned their place at state through hard work, perseverance, and passion. They should be proud of everything they’ve achieved.
