5-15 1A State Qualifying Meet @ Belle Plaine

For the second time in two years English Valleys’ Allison Hewett qualified for the State Track & Field Meet in the 1,500-meter run.

Hewett came in first in the Belle Plaine district by finishing in a time of 5:19.49. Winning the District title was anything but routine for Hewett, though. Hewett passed Lisbon’s Kendra Schmidt (5:22.64) and Iowa Valley’s Belle Hartman (5:26.39) in the final 150 meters to win gold.

The girls’ 1,500-meter run is scheduled for 2:15pm on Saturday, May 24.
