WEEKLY PLANNER The road to state is main drive for North Mason senior track leader By DEAN SIEMON North Mason senior Kameron Crosswhite began participating in the long jump in the seventh grade and he hasn't stopped i since. "It's been a long road," he said before a Monday practice in Bel- fair. i As a sophomore, Crosswhite :qualified for the WIAA state i track and field championships. But last year in his junior year, he scratched his three jumps i during a sub-district meet. "That's something that we've been working on - consistency," Crosswhite. said. Those scratched jumps have led to his detei'mination for this season. During spring break, when the track team held op- tional practices at 10 a.m., i coaches said Crosswhite made it to each one early. "It's really important for me !to meet my goals," Crosswhite said. North Mason track coaches said that Crosswhite has po- sitioned himself as one of the team leaders. "He's got his goals set a long time ago and he's been working hard ever since," said coach Jeff Bevers. "He has handled success " and failure well and he's learned from them." "He has the management skills to lead the whole team," said coach Miranda Thygesen. This season, Crosswhite has changed his focus with coach Dan Ditmer, who has focused on his approach at this point in the season. "Later on in the season, we're going to work on the takeoff and landing," Crosswhite said. Both Crosswhite and Ditmer said one of the most important factors in a good approach for the long jump is speed - lots and lots of speed.
