Katie Rainsberger’s goal on Saturday at Mullen’s Runners Rooster track and field meet at Brother Bernard Kinneavy de La Salle Stadium was simple and short — she wanted to help her teammates qualify for next month’s state championships in the 3,200-meter relay.
Goal accomplished.
Rainsberger, Lilliana Hamilton, Maria Mettler and Kayla Wiitala won the event in 9 minutes, 31.37 seconds in one of the day’s highlights.
The four Kadets went off in the morning at 8 a.m. and good thing — Raisnberger, a state and national champion distance runner headed to Oregon, had to get back home to Colorado Springs to prepare for the Kadets’ prom in the evening.
