OFSAA Report 06.04.06
It was a bit daunting to face the best athletes in Ontario, but the RND T&F team showed up with heart.  They say Ontario's OFSSA meet is the toughest in the country, and they're right.  Records fell and athletes from all over strutted their stuff for the spectators.  The girls' senior relay team put in a personal best, and Jason Steels high jumped to a sixth place finish in midget boys.  The RND team showed poise and promise throughout the event.  Next year is only a few months away...
Mrs. Besselink has posted a full itinerary for the OFSAA track and field championships this week in Toronto:

Regi's man of Steels

By Claude Scilley

Local Sports - Saturday, May 27, 2006 @ 07:00

 

Jason Steels was a young man

in a hurry yesterday.

In a matter of just a few minutes, the midget-aged competitor from Regiopolis-Notre Dame qualified for the provincial high school track and field championships in two events.

Under a grey sky at the East region qualifying meet, Steels finished second in the 100 metres, then he went straight from the finish line to the high jump area, where they were waiting for him.

He promptly cleared 1.65 metres, assuring himself of at least a fourth-place finish, thereby qualifying for

OFSAA in that event, too.

"I ran the 100-metre final and I just didn't stop. I came right over here from the finish line," he said.

"When I did my first jump I still hadn't caught my breath from the final."

Steels ultimately tied for the victory in high jump, clearing 1.75 metres.

It was a much different timetable from a week earlier, when there were about 90 minutes between events, but Steels allowed that it may not have been such a bad thing. He awoke yesterday to the realization that this was likely to be a much tougher meet.

"This morning I kind of felt it a bit," he said. "I was seeded first for high jump and I was seeded second for the 100 metres and it threw me off a bit because I'm usually seeded first for both. This one was a little more nerve-racking, to think about how many more good people there were.

"I probably would have got more psyched out if I'd had time to think about it. My warmup for high jump was mostly the race."

Steels, who cleared a personal-best 1.78 metres in winning the eastern Ontario championship last week, said he wasn't concerned about having to pass until 1.65 metres. He said he'd have done that anyway.

"When I practise, I like 1.60, 1.65 just to get my form down," he said. "It's not that high for me. It was good."

Though he finished second to Segun Makinde of Gloucester's Colonel By in the sprint, Steels' time of 11.57 seconds was a personal best on a day for such performances from Regi track athletes.

Veronica Catry, the senior, claimed person bests in both the 100-metre hurdles, which she won, and the 100 metres, in which she was fourth.

The hurdles race was particularly pleasing for Catry, the county champion who nicked a hurdle near the end of last week's race and finished fifth, barely managing to advance.

"I just lost my focus and my toe caught the hurdle with my trail leg," she said. "It was the second-last hurdle, and it just threw everything off. Luckily, I still qualified and made it here, redeemed myself.

"It was a nice turnaround."

In the period between the two meets, the mishap caused some concern for both the athlete and her hurdles coach, Walt Sepic.

"I was real apprehensive," Catry said. "My coach mentioned to me at practice that I seemed scared to fall.

"I did a lot more practising in the warmup with my hurdles, instead of regular acceleration, and I think that prepared me a lot better."

Indeed. This time, when Catry again snagged a toe, on the third-last hurdle, she was able to keep her stride.

"I was already gaining the lead and then it caught but I kept pushing," she said. "I realized it because it hurts, but I was more prepared for it. You try to block it out, think, Just run. Keep going. Don't stop.' "

Catry, who reached the OFSAA final in the 100 last spring, didn't qualify in the hurdles. She credits work with Sepic and sprint coach Diane Gillis for the improvement.

"I'm getting over the hurdle a lot faster," she said. "Instead of jumping over it, I'm snapping my legs over it. That's a lot faster and it helps because you're not landing so hard on your lead leg."

Catry will contest three events at OFSAA, running a leg on Regi's senior girls 400-metre relay team, a group that staged a remarkable performance Thursday by finishing third, though using a substitute, Paige Kasaboski, in place of Kate Gillis, who was in B.C. at a field hockey camp.

With Kasaboski, the senior team qualified for OFSAA with two Grade 9 students on it.

"We have such a great team," Catry said. "We had to bring up our replacement. She was a little nervous but she did a great job. She ran the third leg and she did a great pass and we're very proud of her."

With a season-best time of 51.22 seconds, the Regi girls are achieving a level of success none of them expected.

"At KASSAA we were goofing around," Catry said. "It was the end of the day. We just thought it'd be fun. Then when we won, we started taking it seriously. At EOSSA, coming second, we were on top of the world.

"Coming third here is a great feeling. We're going to OFSAA."
