Hi-Line Athletes of the Week

Kailey Kleinjan, Chinook Track

Track and field is a sport that takes time to get to the top of. But Chinook’s Kailey Kleinjan isn’t waiting around. Kleinjan made a splash at last Wednesday’s Cal Wearly Invitational by sweeping the 100 and 200-meter races. She won the 100 with a time of 13.1 and the 200 in 28.2. Kleinjan then returned to the Havre Middle School Track Monday to win the 200 in the Havre Lions Invite in 28.10, while also placing second in the 100.

Cooper Spicher, North Star Track

It’s been a big week of track and field for North Star senior Cooper Spicher. The North Star standout won the triple jump with a leap of 41-3 at last Wednesday’s Cal Wearly Invitational. But Spicher, who is also a football and basketball standout for the Knights, was back on the HMS Track on Monday, where he again won the triple jump (41-5), but also captured the Havre Lions Invite long jump title with a leap of 20-3.
