A busy day turned into a very productive day for local athletes competing at the WIAA 2A/3A/4A State Track & Field Championships in Tacoma on Friday, as two Royals, two Hawks and a Warrior all earned medals with top-five podium finishes.

Lynnwood’s Ena Dodik captured the runner-up spot in the 3A girls discus throw with a toss of 134-10. The second-place medal capped off a four-year run in the discus event at the state championships for the senior after finishing fifth as a sophomore, 17th as a freshman and 21st last year as a junior.

Joining Dodik on the 3A girls discus throw podium was Edmonds-Woodway senior Kaydence Hansen, who placed fourth with a toss of 132-6.

Mountlake Terrace senior Allison Mervin leaped to a personal best 18-9 1/2 on Friday, good enough to take 2nd place in the 3A girls long jump.

After finishing second in the 3A girls long jump last year, Mountlake Terrace’s Allison Mervin duplicated the accomplishment this year with a leap of 18-9 1/2, a personal best for the senior. Mervin was bested for the second straight year by Mercer Island’s Aaliyah Khan, now a two-time champion in the event. Mervin took home a fifth-place medal in the event as a sophomore and finished 14th as a freshman.
