Meanwhile, Bartlett’s Deuce Alailefaleula capped his high school career with a third straight shot put title, throwing 53-3.5 despite injuries, before heading to college football. Chugiak girls dominated again, securing their fifth straight team title, while the boys claimed their third in five years. Elijah Udall had a breakout day, winning the 100 and 200 meters plus a relay in dramatic photo finishes. Matthew Jackson battled back from a hurdle crash to win the boys 100 hurdles, and Luke Shaw swept the 1,600 and 800 meters. It was a meet of heart, speed, and unforgettable comebacks.
