2008 81st Clyde Littlefield Texas Relays quotes: Day three

Ingrid Kantola, UCLA
University/College Women’s Pole Vault
It felt good, I had a good day. Considering it was not the best weather, I still had a good day. I made all my marks, so it was good.

Jack Witt, Norman North
Boy’s Pole Vault
Awesome! I’ve been struggling with my step the whole day. The last jump, my step was on right and everything worked out. There is a fast runway, good tailwind and nice people running the meet.

Sharon Day, Cal Poly
Women’s High Jump

It feels great. I didn’t jump as high as I wanted to, but it’s still a good victory.

April Holliness, Unattached
Women’s Long Jump

It feels good, I won here in high school, so it feels good to come back and win again.

Reindell Cole, Cal St. Northridge
Men’s Long Jump

It feels good with this being my first year coming to the Texas Relays. There were a whole lot of people that I jumped against at Nationals here, so I couldn’t get let down by that. I had to do what I did at Nationals and come out with a good jump.

Bel. Episcopal
High School Girls 4x800 Meter Relay
It feels great. We had a lot of injuries and we worked through them and ran well. We trained really hard and this is only our second time here. Last year, we got second, so it feels great to come back and win it this year.

Southlake Carroll
High School Boys 4x800 Meter Relay
It feels good. It shows that your training has been working. You come out here and do what you planned to do. Coming through that line there’s nothing else greater than knowing that you just ran hard and did what you wanted to come out here and do.

Wade Thornton, Wichita Falls
High School Boys High Jump
It feels good, I jumped well and that was my goal coming into this event. I’m happy with the win.

Shade Weygandt, Mansfield
High School Girls Pole Vault
It feels really great. I’m a little bummed I didn’t get to improve my record, but I still did really well. I got to move up to my biggest poles, and everything I’ve been doing in practice is definitely paying off.

Ambra McCuin, Lancaster
High School Girls Long Jump
It feels good. I wasn’t sure if I was going to win or not, but I figured I would.

It feels awesome. I’ve come here since I was four years old watching these races, and to win something this prestigious is awesome.

Craig Lutz, Flower Mound Marcus

It feels pretty good because it’s my first year out here, so I was pretty nervous coming into so it was pretty cool that I was able to win this.

Festus Kigen, TCU
Men’s 1500-Meter
I feel really good even though my time was a little slow. I was expecting a couple guys from Arkansas and LSU to be in the race, but I’m still satisfied with this victory.

It feels great. All of the hard work and practice definitely paid off for us.

It feels pretty good. We just wanted to come in here and get a win. It’s pretty late and it’s a little breezy and chilly, but it feels pretty good to come in here from Fayetteville and get a victory.
