The Cashmere girls also captured first place with 166 points, followed by Omak (78), Chelan (59), Cascade (36), and Wahluke (21).
Cashmere athletes were dominant across multiple events. In the sprints, Isaac Zavala led the boys in the 100- and 200-meter dashes, winning both with times of 11.54 and 23.47 seconds, while Caleb Dillin placed 2nd in both events. Brynne Patrick anchored the girls’ sprint squad with a first-place 100-meter dash (13.38) and a second-place finish in the 200 meters (28.71).
Middle-distance events also highlighted Cashmere’s depth. Rylan Reiber swept the boys’ 800-, 1,600-, and 3,200-meter races, while Emmett Brown added top-three finishes in the 800 and 1,600 meters. On the girls’ side, Mackenzie Van Bogart captured first in the 800 meters, and Allie Neff won the 1,600 meters.

Cashmere’s relay teams were equally impressive. The boys’ 4×100 and 4×400 relays, along with the girls’ 4×100, 4×200, and 4×400 relays, all claimed first-place finishes, showcasing the depth and coordination of the squads.
Field events saw strong performances as well. Joseph Acton and Carson Potter led the boys in shot put and discus, while Kaleb Thayer earned second in the javelin. On the girls’ side, Taylor Kunz took first in shot put, with Leela Flick following closely behind. High jump, pole vault, long jump, and triple jump also featured multiple podium finishes for Cashmere athletes, including Isaac Zavala, Connor Diaz, Taylor VanWinkle, and Makelah Gatens.
