Sam Noennig has thrown some shots and discs pretty far in her life. Her performance at the USATF JUNIOR NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS in Sacramento, CA over the weekend was her biggest performance of her life on the biggest stage to date. Sam bested the field of the top 21 under-20 year old shot putters in the country with a new lifetime best of 55' 0.75" (16.78m). This comes after a red-shirt season at Arizona State University that allowed Sam to train under coach Brian Blutreich but compete sparingly unattached. Winning the meet will allow Sam to represent the United States at the JR. Pan-American Games in Peru later in July. It is the 2nd U.S. Team Sam has made, she competed in Columbia at the World Youth Games in 2015 after qualifying in the Discus with fellow Wisconsinite Josie Schaefer.

ERIN DUNNING - Ashwaubenon High School Erin will be attending the University of Minnesota to throw for Coach Peter Miller and compete in the BIG TEN Conference. Erin won the 2016 WIAA D1 Girls State Shot Put crown as a junior after a runner-up finish as a sophomore. Her P.R. of 46' 9.5" in the Shot Put is the 7th best throw in Wisconsin State history. She saw big improvements in the Discus as a junior finishing the season with a P.R. of 143' 7" and finished 4th at State. Good luck future Gopher!
RHYS ENDERLE, Madison West High School
Rhys will be attending Bucknell University. Rhys swept the Madison City Outdoor Shot put and Discus titles as a junior. His 49'11" shot P.R. and 145' 3" discus P.R. are huge improvements, yet are just a hint of what he is capable of in the future. Best of luck Rhys as you join the Bison of Bucknell.
KELSEY JUDGE, Baraboo High School
Kelsey will be attending Winona State University. Kelsey finished her junior year with a 6th place finish in the D1 discus at the WIAA State Meet and a P.R. of 132'4". She has thrown 38'1" in the shot put as well. Good Luck Kelsey as you join Coach Mike Turgeon's D2 womens powerhouse throws squad!
JOSIE SCHAEFER, Baraboo High School
Josie will be attending the University of Wisconsin to throw for Coach Dave Astrauskas. Josie followed up successful frosh and soph seasons in the discus by winning the 2016 WIAA State D1 Discus title. She closed out the summer with a 3rd Place finish at the USATF Junior Championships where she had the best discus throw in Wisconsin state history 176'3". With a senior season to go Josie potentially could move the all-time mark even higher! Josie had breakout year in the shot put switching from glide to rotational, she moved her P.R. out 7 feet to 45'8" winning the WTFA State Indoor meet. Best of luck in Badger Red!

A couple of years ago I thought it would be cool if the ALL-TIME list for Wisconsin High School Track and Field performers had video of the actual marks. Boys and Girls Shot Put and Discus top throws? Top 10? Top 30? Top 50? I thought it would be a great device for coaches and athletes to see what made some of the great throwers in state history great. But also inspire the next generation of throwers more than just a list of names and numbers could.
Instead of wishing it I decided to see if I could start compiling it myself. I knew this would be a difficult task. How hard? I'm just getting started, so ask me later...
Obviously, there are some throws that do not have any video - however, my suspicion is there are a lot of throws on VHS tapes in a box in someones basement collecting dust.
So here is an ALL CALL to coaches, parents, athletes and track and field enthusiasts. What do you got?
Please contact me if you've got anything. Leads, film, vhs, High 8, dvds, links to youtube files...
