Day one of the 2025 WIAA State 2A/3A/4A Track and Field Championships in Tacoma proved to be rewarding for a pair of Edmonds School District athletes on Thursday as Mountlake Terrace’s Allison Mervin and Edmonds-Woodway’s Nicholas Manz each came away from the event with medals.
Mervin placed fourth in the 3A girls long jump with a leap of 18-05.25 to earn her second podium finish in the event. The junior placed fifth in last year’s state 3A girls long jump competition.
Mervin, in addition to her fourth-place finish in the 3A girls long jump, placed 10th in the 3A girls 100-meter dash.
Manz earned his first-ever state medal with a sixth-place finish in the 3A boys discus throw. The senior just missed out on a top-eight podium finish in the event last year, finishing ninth.
In other results from Thursday’s state track meet, Terrace’s Brynlee Dubiel won a spot in the finals of the 3A girls 100 meter hurdles to be staged on Friday. Dubiel qualified for the event finals with a third place after completion of the preliminary 3A girls 100-meter hurdles races.
The Meadowdale boys 4×400-meter relay team that includes CJ Rawls, Brian Mills and brothers Matthew and John Patterson punched their ticket to the finals of the event with a seventh-place finish in the preliminaries. The 3A boys 4×400-meter relay finals will be run on Saturday.
The 2A/3A/4A state track meet runs through Saturday at Mount Tahoma High School in Tacoma.
