Strong performances and personal bests were the order of the meet, as the team combined to place second overall behind perennial powerhouse Madill. Reid Ha'penny was one of the most outstanding athletes. Reid won the individual award as top junior male athlete for his first place finish in the 300 metre hurdles and his two second place finishes in the 80 metre hurdles and the high jump. He was also part of the wining 4 by 100 relay team. Other top finishes were turned in by Kylen VanOsch in the junior girls 300, and 80 metre hurdles and by Melanie McCann in the midget girls 3000 metre race. The Panthers dominated the 200 metres, winning three of the six races and placing fourth in another. Ashley Ralph won the senior girls race, Tim Bilcke topped the midget boys division and Aaron Neeb won the junior boys race. Neeb captured the 100 metre title later in the day. In the field events Mitch Homuth won the senior boys high jump and Missy Pertschy took the midget girls javelin title. South Huron also complied 17 second place finishes and eight third place fin- ishes. By the time the meet ended, Panther athletes had qualified for WOSSAA in 67 events. Scott Ha'penny, who was one of seven teachers who volunteered to coach this year, said they were pleased with the efforts of the athletes at Huron Perth and their goal of bettering last year's third place finish had been achieved. It was especially good to finish only 23 points behind Madill in the boys overall team division.
