This is not the SPRING we'd hoped for! There are larger things at work on our planet and it can be hard to figure out where sports, track and field and specifically throwing really fits into this new world order. My suggestion to everyone is to stay hopeful, stay at home, stay safe, stay healthy, and stay positive. There will be throwing again eventually!
AT HOME STRENGTH TRAINING - NO EQUIPMENT NECESSARY
For many of you who love throwing, my suggestion would be to stay active, workout each day, at your home, with the stuff you got. If you don't have any equipment, be creative. I've created a playlist of workouts you can do at home with little or no equipment with the help of Nick Garcia.
If you want to spend a little money, buy a medicine ball and a mini band and augment your workouts.
DO DRILLS AT HOME
If you only have space to do drills, DO DRILLS!
KEEP THROWING IF YOU CAN DO IT SAFELY
If you have space to throw, KEEP THROWING! However, if you are going to train on your own, please TRAIN SAFELY! Practice safe distancing, stay off of tracks and facilities that have been closed.

SUMMER MADISON THROWS CLUB SESSIONS
I have not made summer registration available, as the calendar seems influx, at best. For those of you hungry to get back to training when the world gets back to something more normal, Madison Throws Club will be here for you. We just need to wait until throwing together can be safe again.
If that is in June, July, or August THROWING SESSIONS WILL BE AVAILABLE
MONDAY and WEDNESDAY afternoons.
SUMMER MADISON THROWS CLUB SPONSORED THROWS MEETS
If we can come back together to throw, plan on MTC sponsoring THROWS ONLY MEETS for anyone who needs to find out where you are relative to the measuring tape.
Until then, STAY SAFE!

Samantha Noennig Wins 2019 NCAA D1 Women's Shot
3.11.19
MTC Alum, Sam Noennig won the NCAA D1 Women's Indoor Shot Put Championship this past weekend. The Arizona State University sophomore qualified for her second national meet, but first indoors with a stellar indoor season, which saw her lead the nation (TFRRS) for much of it. She won MPSF Conference Championship heading into NCAA's. Sam lead most of the competition with round 2 throw of 57' 8.75". In round 6, fellow PAC12 standout Lena Giger produced a season best throw 58' 8.5" to take the lead. On the final throw of the competition, Sam would not be denied, winning with a new P.R. of 58' 9.25"!
Congrats Sam!
GIRLS WISCONSIN ALL-TIME COMBINED THROWERS: Updated
Of the thousands and thousands of prep girls who have picked up a shot put and discus in Wisconsin over the past 50 years, only 20 girls have throws that rank in the top 50 of BOTH the SHOT PUT and DISCUS events. The COMPOSITE RANKING adds each athlete's rank on the top 50 ALL-TIME LIST in both events. The lower the score, the better the combined ranking.
> MOVED ON >
Congratulations to Emma Richards - Ozaukee '18 and Eve Goldstein - Somerset '20 for making it on the list!
Emma Richards finished her senior year strong, sweeping the WIAA D3 SHOT & DISCUS. Emma threw 46'3.5" indoors at the WTFA Indoor Championships to move up to 16th on the all-time list in the shot put. On the road to the WIAA outdoor meet Richards threw 158'2" in the discus at the Hilbert D3 Sectional, it was the 12 best throw in state history.
Eve Goldstein had an impressive sophomore season for Sommerset and won both the Shot and Discus at the WIAA D2 State Meet. Her 44'1" shot put toss at the Girls ThrowDown in MadTown moved her into the top 50 in state history at #46. Eve competed into the summer and improved her discus to 154' 9" at the AAU Junior National Meet in Des Moines Iowa, good enough for #14 on the all-time list.
V MOVED OFF V
As we continue to see massive improvements in the Girls SHOT PUT and DISCUS around the state, Elizabeth Robe got bumped off the list as her 140'9" discus P.R. from 2004 fell out of the TOP50 list, You'll still find her holding on the #34 on the SHOT PUT LIST at 45'1".
THE STANDARD
How much have GIRLS pushed the standard forward?
Want to be considered one of the best WI Prep throwers of all time? You'll need to THROW BIG and THROW FAR...
The new standard to make the Top 50 LIST in 2019:
#50 Shot Put 43' 10.5"
#50 Discus 140' 11"
THROW BIG, THROW FAR!
