Sport: Track and Field

KG High School's Kim Berg is on track to be ranked nationally again this year in the javelin throw.

Berg has adjusted to a new and heavier javelin, by placing first in each of the three meets the KouGars have competed in this season. Berg topped off each of her first-place finishes with a throw of 136 feet 5 inches in the Chinook Invitational Meet two weeks ago. Berg's throw was 33 feet longer than her second-place opponent.

At the KG invitational last Wednesday, Berg threw the javelin 129-2 for first, nearly 24 feet ahead of the next placer. Berg's throw Saturday at the Havre invitational was a 127-2.

Berg also plays basketball and volleyball for the KouGars.
