Marshall’s Beau Bofferding, middle, sprints down the home stretch of the 400-meter dash past Wayzata’s Michael Smith during the Class AA state track and field championships Saturday at Hamline University in St. Paul. Bofferding took third in the 400, and also took home sixth in the 100-meter dash.
ST. PAUL - The "Beau Show" has come to a close.
After qualifying for the 100- and 400-meter championship races at Day 2 of the Class AA state track and field championships, Marshall senior sprinter Beau Bofferding brought home a pair of medals, taking third in the 400 and sixth in the 100, ending his high school career in style.
"Sadly, we'll pass it onto Duluth so the Bulldogs can have the 'Beau show,'" said Tigers boys' track and field coach Mike Jacobs about Bofferding, who will head to the University of Minnesota-Duluth to play football next fall.
