Fremont’s Amare Harlan, Lone Peak’s Taylor Rohatinsky and Logan’s Millie Garren stole the show at the BYU Invitational high school track & field meet this weekend in Provo.

All three were double winners in their specialty events, including Harlan setting a new state record in one event.

The slightest of winds denied her a second state record.

Harlan was already tied for the state 100-meter record after running a 11.68 earlier this season, but on Saturday at BYU, the junior lowered it by a whopping .10 as she blazed to a 11.58.

Later in the meet she ran a 23.70 in the 200 meters, which eclipsed the state record of 23.75.

Unfortunately it wasn’t a wind legal team as she ran with a +2.1 tailwind. Had that tailwind measure +2.0 instead, it would’ve been a legal time.

Harlan has two more meets — Region 1 and the state meet — to try to beat it again.

In all, there were 16 new season-best performances turned in by relays and individuals at BYU this weekend.

Rohatinsky, a senior at Lone Peak, accounted for two of those, as she won the 1,600 meters with a time of 4:48.07 and then the 3,200 meters with a time of 10:35.90.

On the field, Garren won the shot put with a season-best mark of 42’03.75, and followed it up with a discus top mark of 137’05.25.

On the boys side, top performances were turned in by Farmington’s Ethan Peterson, who won the 1,600 meters with a time of 4:10.18 on Saturday.

On Friday, Peterson was edged out at the tape by .01 by Lone Peak junior Jaron Hartshorn, who won with a great time of 9:03.05.
