Comets take close boys tennis match over Royals

Lottery Numbers for Wednesday, April 13

HANOVER TWP. &#8212; A lot has changed since Autumn Kaminski&#8217;s first trek into a state track meet left her crumpled in heartbreak last spring.All that energy she once spent on a basketball court for Holy Redeemer was re-directed toward track and field conditioning.And her re-dedication to running events is becoming even more noticeable.Kaminski won four events Wednesday and set personal bests in two of them as the Holy Redeemer girls track and field team handled Hanover Area, 107-40 to remain unbeaten in three meets and at the top of the Wyoming Valley Conference Division 2 standings.&#8220;I felt really strong,&#8221; Kaminski said.Apparently, so did Muhammad Chesson.The transfer from Coughlin also won four times, sparking the Hanover Area&#8217;s boys team to a 95-53 victory over Holy Redeemer while helping the Hawkeyes to a 2-0 season start.&#8220;It&#8217;s gone pretty well lately. Smooth,&#8221; Chesson said.Not smoother than the start by the Royals girls.Kaminski set personal records in the 100 hurdles with a time of 16.2 seconds and in the 100-meter dash by finishing in 13.2 seconds. She also won the 300 hurdles and was part of the winning 1,600 relay team. Caroline Banas joined her as a four-time winner and on the 1,600 relay team after capturing the 200 and 400-meter dashes and the high jump as the 3-0 Royals dropped Hanover Area to 1-1 and improved their Division 2 lead to a full game over 1-0 Wyoming Area.&#8220;From our first meet last year, we had a loss,&#8221; Kaminski said. &#8220;We were definitely coming out for revenge.&#8221;Especially Kaminski.She&#8217;s been a regular winner in mulitiple events during the early part of the 2016 season after a failing to make the state hurdles finals last season in a PIAA appearance that devastated her.&#8220;After the 300s, I was outrageously nervous,&#8221; Kaminski, a junior, remembers of her first PIAA competition. &#8220;It&#8217;s just such a different atmosphere. I hit that first hurdle and it was downhill from there. I just know I didn&#8217;t do my best.&#8221;She&#8217;s determined not to let it happen again.&#8220;Today, she PR&#8217;d in (just about) everything she did,&#8221; Holy Redeemer coach Kevin Walters said, &#8220;in the relay and the 100 hurdles and 100 dash. We&#8217;re working on simple things just to get her a little more speed and good times.&#8221;The good times may get even better for Redeemer, traditionally a division power which slipped to 4-3 last season. At least if Kaminski can help it.&#8220;The conditioning over the winter did help me a lot,&#8221; Kaminski said. &#8220;Got my best time in the 100s (hurdles) and 100 dash. I felt really ready to run in the 100 hurdles. It made such a difference.&#8221;Just call Chesson a difference-maker.After leading Coughlin to last season&#8217;s WVC Division 1 title, the junior made a family move to the Hanover Area School District.New year, new team, same result.Chesson captured the 100, 200 and 400-meter dashes and teamed up on the winning 1,600-meter relay team as the Hawkeyes moved to 2-0 on the season, joining Meyers at a half-game behind Lake-Lehman in the WVC Division 2 boys standings.&#8220;I&#8217;m liking it here,&#8221; Chesson, a junior, said. &#8220;It&#8217;s little bit of a new atmosphere, it&#8217;s different. But a bunch of us came out during the winter season &#8212; there was a whole lot of us. We all move closely together. It&#8217;s fun. I feel like I&#8217;m learning so much. There&#8217;s so much more for me to improve. It really excites me.&#8221;Senior thrower John Sheridan brought the Hawkeyes even more excitement, winning the shot put and distance throws, while Chris Randall cleared 12 feet in the pole vault and Nick Minnich leaped 5-4 in the high jump and joined Chesson on the winning 1600 relay to boost Hanover Area&#8217;s victory.&#8220;We&#8217;ve got a good bunch of kids,&#8221; Hanover Area coach Al Weston said. &#8220;We&#8217;ve got Chesson from Coughlin, a couple seniors out who we like. Nick Minnich ran well, is jumping well. Randall has jumped well, he cleared 12 feet.&#8220;We&#8217;re thrilled.&#8221;Northwest 131, GAR 14Maggie Dow won three events and Emma Wyllie was a double winner as the Rangers raced past GAR.Dow placed first in the triple jump, long jump and pole vault, while Wyllie won the 100 and 200-meter dashes.Marie Skrepenak captured the shot put to give the Grenadiers their only victory.Lake-Lehman 121, Nanticoke Area 28Emily Johns won all three throws, Jade Fry placed first in the 800 and 1,600-meter runs and the Black Knights won every event but two in a dominating victory.Johns threw the discus 128-7 feet, slung the shot put 31-5.50 feet and won the javelin with a toss to 106-2 feet.BOYSNorthwest 126, GAR 23Tanner Kennedy won four events and Wyatt Morris finished with three wins to pace the Rangers.Kennedy won the 100, 200 and 400 meter dashes, along with the triple jump. Morris captured the distance events, winning the 1,600 and 3,200 meter runs and ran a leg of the winning 3,200 relay team.Lake-Lehman 121, Nanticoke Area 29Dominic Hockenbury was a three-time winner and Joey Chaga and Nick Eury earned two wins apiece as the Black Knights remained unbeaten in the Wyoming Valley Conference Division 2.Hockenbury took the 1600 and 3200 meter individual runs and teamed up on the winning 3200 relay.Chaga won the 110 hurdles and pole vault, while Eury took firsts in the 100 and 200 meter sprints.GirlsHoly Redeemer 107, Hanover Area 403,200 relay &#8212; 1.
