REDMOND — With Caleb Hoffmann winning the 300-meter hurdles and the 400, the visiting Bend High boys edged Ridgeview 73-70 in an Intermountain Hybrid track and field dual meet on Wednesday.

The Lava Bears escaped with the victory despite three multi-event winners by the Ravens, who went into the meet short-handed and left with an impressed coach.

“To me, it was a positive surprise that we were in that range to Bend High, having dealt with a few scratches on my boys’ side,” Ridgeview coach Rachel Hinze said, referring to several athletes who did no compete due to grades or injuries. “I was pleased to see that we were that close and that we provided a great, competitive dual for Bend.”

Tanner Stevens won the 100- and 200-meter dashes for Ridgeview, Cody Simpson took the pole vault and the triple jump, but it was freshman Brent Yeakey who stole the show. On his birthday, Yeakey claimed victories in the shot put, the discus and the javelin.

“I think there’s a lot of room to grow,” Hinze said. “He’s still young and working on perfecting techniques. As a freshman, he has phenomenal technique. But he still has some strength training to do.”

Picking up wins for Bend High were Connor Scott in the high jump, Jordan Neelon in the long jump, Austin Jewsbury in the 3,000, and Graham Lelack in the 1,500.

For the girls, Destiny Wilder won the shot put and the discus to lead Ridgeview to a 82-57 win over Bend. Dakota Steen won the 300 hurdles and was second in the 100 hurdles, Hosanna Wilder took the high jump, and Samantha Tullis and Randi Holland tied for first in the pole vault.

“I think the girls perform to their strengths,” Hinze said. “They are consistent. Everybody did what was asked of them and pulled through. They’re a strong, consistent group.”

The Lava Bears were led by Ali Labroin’s win in the javelin and her runner-up finish in the discus. Sydni Williams contributed with a victory in the triple jump, a second-place showing in the high jump, and a fourth-place finish in the long jump.
