Clinton's two high schools - Central Huron and St. Anne's - sent a number of athletes in a variety of events to the Western Ontario Secondary Schools Athletic Association (WOSSAA) meet May 17-18 at the University of Western Ontario's TD Waterhouse Stadium in London. Looking back at the May 10-11 bi-county meet hosted by Goderich District Collegiate Institute (GDCI), St. Anne's coach Baird Robinson said he was "pleased with how our numbers fared." The top six Huron -Perth finishers moved on to the WOSSAA meet. And while the Eagles team's strengths are more obvious on the track, Robinson anticipated impressive results from a few field athletes as well. "I think we have a number of kids that should be able to get to the next level - 8 or 9 depending if things break well for us," he commented. "There's always a little luck factored into these competitions because all of the kids have to get out there and do their best on the same day. "It's a bit of a crap shoot. A lot of things can happen Jennifer Hubbard photo Participating in the Huron -Perth track and field meet, Grade 11 student Lindsay Gibson, of the Seaforth-area, takes a jump in the long jump competition.

"We're getting stronger as a team and there has been a lot of improvement this year." Athletes with the five top WOSSAA scores will move on to western Ontario regionals - an extra step of high school competition unique to track and field - in Sarnia May 27-28. The top four athletes will then attend the Ontario Federation of Schools Athletic Association (OFSAA) championships in Windsor during the first weekend of June. "The western region is typically the strongest in the province for all sports. If you get out the western region by and large you will do well at OFSAA," Robinson added. Seaforth-area athletes in the meet included Matt Fisher, of Central Huron Secondary School, who came third in junior men's 300 - metre hurdle and fifth in the junior men's 200 -metre dash. Caleb Ringenberg, of Central Huron came fifth in the midget men's 800 -metre run, tying with Grant Bolton, also of Central Huron. Bolton also came fifth in the midget men's 1500 -metre run. Luke Veens, of St. Anne's Secondary School, came fifth in the senior men's 3000 - metre run and seventh in the senior men's high jump.
