Logansport High School

Sophomore Alette Woodhouse received a “call back” on Wednesday evening and will be competing at the IHSAA State Track & Field Meet in Indianapolis on Friday, June 5th. A “call back” occurs when an athlete who finishes in the top 3 places at any of the 8 Regional sites scratches from an event. Usually the athlete who scratches out of an event has qualified in two or more events at the State Meet. Because of the high level of competition at the State level, the athlete chooses to just focus on the event they feel they are most likely to have success in. This opens up spots in the field and the IHSAA goes to the next highest non-qualifying athletes to fill the field. Alette’s 1600 time of 5:13.33 at the Lafayette Regional put her in position to receive the call back. The State Meet appearance will complete a breakout sophomore year for Alette. During the Fall cross country season she broke the LHS 5K record and then broke her own record again. This track season she set the 3200 Meter record and then lowered it a second time. She also broke the 42 year old 800 meter school record this season, previously held by Logansport’s Kim Briggs who finished 2nd in the 1600 meter run at the State Meet in 1984. CONGRATULATIONS AND GOOD LUCK TO ALETTE AT THE STATE MEET!
