2026 IHSAA Girls Track & Field State Finals Recap

INDIANAPOLIS - Even casual followers of Indiana high school sports know Carmel has the most state championships. In 17 sports, the Greyhounds had won state championships during the 2000s. One notable omission: girls track and field. No more. After going without one in this sport since 1999, Carmel has gone back-to-back. Moreover, if you count Hoosier State Relays as an unofficial state indoor meet, Carmel has back-to-back triple crowns in cross-country, indoor and outdoor track. In Friday’s 52nd annual State Finals at North Central, Carmel started with a record in the 4x800-meter relay and never relented. In a meet featuring favorites holding form – Mallory Weller’s...

2026 IHSAA Girls Tennis State Finals Recap

INDIANAPOLIS - After Carmel returned to the top of the IHSAA girls tennis world, its first-year coach, Kiersten Carlson, was happy to take it all in. Just a few years ago, she never would have thought she would have guided her team to the state title with a 4-1 win over Evansville Memorial at the Wynne Tennis Center at North Central High School. While she played on three state-championship teams for Carmel more than a decade ago, a sour college experience left her finished with the sport. Now, she’s more than happy to be back – and it seems the Carmel program is happy to have her. After all, Carmel had not won a state title since 2023 – a veritable drought for this...

2026 IHSAA Boys Track & Field State Finals Recap

INDIANAPOLIS – Indiana’s boys state track and field meet had enough drama and storylines for a Netflix series. Proper length, too. Because of two weather delays, it took eight hours. You can’t film a series without stars, and this meet had them, notably hurdler Rylan Hainje and distance runner Noah Bontrager. Both were repeat double winners and record-breakers. And if it’s not a record, it should be: Warsaw’s 5-foot-7 Jordan Randall leaped 19 inches over his head to win the high jump at 7-2. He missed in a bid for a record 7-4 ¼. There were six meet records in all. Excluding 1980, the first year of metric distances, the six equaled 2025 as the most since 1976. And the...
