Boylan Track & Field

What an effort! Our 4x800 team of Lily Shields, Natalie Tekampe, Nora Wedwick, and Reese Kohnle finishes 3rd in the state in a race that came down to the end and drops their own school record by 7 seconds down to 9:20.66!! We are so proud!! 🥉💚🏃🏼‍♀️ @BoylanCatholic

The historic run continued last night for the Boylan Lady Titans! 1st IHSA track and field sectional championship in school history and lots of STATE qualifiers!! @BoylanCatholic

Last night was historic! For the first time since 2003, and only the second time ever, the Lady Titans became NIC-10 conference champions! 🏆🏃‍♀️1️⃣ It was a total team effort and we couldn’t be more proud! 💚 @BoylanCatholic @rrstar_sports @TitansOnNFHS

Coming in at #5. Can’t wait to see how this group bounces back after last year’s disappointment of missing finals.

Reese Kohnle is ready for big things this year! Coming in at number 9 for class 2A 1600! 🏃🏼‍♀️🔥

Joey Fiorenza coming in at number 8 for class 2A! 💪🏃🏻

2024 Lady Titan XC team: NO DEBATE, the best team in Boylan cross country history‼️🏃🏽‍♀️💚🤍 Fell a heartbreaking 10 points shy of bringing home a state trophy today, but there is so much to be proud of! @BoylanCatholic @TitansOnNFHS

Closing the loop on yesterday and highlighting all of Rasheed’s career accomplishments…

RASHEED JOHNSON!! He runs a 10.67 for the 100m dash to finish in 2nd place in the state for class 2A, just .01 behind first!! 💪👀🔥🥈It’s a PR by .13 and the 3rd fastest time in school history!! And he’s not done yet! Let’s see what he can do in the 200! @BoylanCatholic

Nolan Coen closes out his Boylan career with a solid effort in the 3200m run, just seconds off his PR. His sectional time of 10:00.06 goes down as the 9th fastest time in school history. He was also part of the school record setting 4x800 relay team last year. What a career!

Today our boy state qualifiers competed in the state prelims! Looking forward to what Rasheed Johnson and Nolan Coen can do tomorrow!

A little late in posting this, but our state qualifying girls competed last weekend. Overall, things didn’t go the way we wanted, but there is still so much to be proud of! The best part is that all of our state qualifiers return next year and will be hungrier than ever!

Rasheed Johnson AGAIN! This time he qualifies for state in the 200m dash placing second with a huge PR of 21.97!! @BoylanCatholic

Our next state qualifier gets the additional honor of being a sectional champion! Joey Fiorenza follows up last week’s conference win in the 800m run with another victory this week by running a 1:58.64. That is now the 6th fastest time in school history! @BoylanCatholic

Our second qualifier has become pretty accustomed to making state and that is Rasheed Johnson in the 100m dash! He runs a season best 10.88, achieving state qualifying time and good for second place!! @BoylanCatholic

It’s the boys turn at sectionals and so far they are rocking it!! Our first state qualifier of the night is Nolan Coen who ran the 3200m run in a time of 10:00.06, a 7 second PR, and good enough for second place overall!! @BoylanCatholic

Closing out the night with one last state qualifying relay in the 4x400!! The relay team of Mary Cyrs, Lily Shields, Caroline Barker, and Natalie Tekampe run a 3+ second PR and hit state qualifying time!! @BoylanCatholic

Our next state qualifiers are Natalie Tekampe and Reese Kohnle in the 1600! They both hit the qualifying time and finished 1st and 3rd, respectively! @BoylanCatholic

Our next state qualifier is Caroline Barker in the 300m hurdles!! She runs a 1+ second PR, finishes 2nd, and runs the 3rd fastest 300m hurdle time in school history!! @BoylanCatholic

Our next state qualifier is Lily Shields in the open 800!! Despite it being her 2nd 800 of the day she PR’d, finished 3rd, and hit the state qualifying time!! @BoylanCatholic
