Wayzata Girls Break State 4x800m Record


---

It's seem as if the Minnesota state records are falling weekly in 2023.

Just 4 days after Hayden Bills broke the state shot put record and two weeks after the Lakeville North boys broke the 4x800m record, another one has fallen. 

The Wayzata girls 4x800m team of Grace Weber, Grace Mignone, Abbey Nechanicky, and Teegan Anderson ran a time of 8:59.04 at the Lake Conference Championships to break the 2016 Edina girl's state record time of 8:59.69.
