Most high school track athletes pick a thing. They are a sprinter. They are a thrower. They are a high jumper who only jumps high jumps and sometimes wins a relay leg by accident.
Audrey O'Meara has decided she does not need a thing.
In the last three weeks the Seacoast Christian senior has competed in nine events and won seven of them. We are not talking seven 100 meter dashes. We are talking seven different events. Sprints. Jumps. Throws. The kind of event spread that on most rosters belongs to three different athletes.
Here is the receipt.
April 17, Bob Morse Invitational. She ran the 100 meter dash in 12.93 (second), the 200 in 27.38 (first), and the 400 in 1:05.71 (first). Three sprints in one afternoon. That is already a full day for most people.
April 18, MAISAD Meet 2 at Hyde. She changed disciplines and won discus at 80 feet 10 inches and javelin at 95 feet 10 inches. Two throws. The next day. Same kid.
April 25, MAISAD Meet 3 at Hyde. High jump, 5 feet 2 inches, first. Long jump, 16 feet 10 and a half inches, first. Triple jump, 34 feet flat, first. Three jumps, three wins, one meet.
May 1, MAISAD Meet 4 at Hyde. Discus, 95 feet 7 (a personal best over her April mark), first. Long jump, 16 feet 6 and a half, first. Triple jump, 33 feet 9, first.
Sprints. Throws. Jumps. Three different event families. Seven gold medals across them. We have looked at the data three times to make sure this is real. It is real.
She is a senior. There is no next year for her at the high school level. The state meet is three weeks away. If you have ever watched a track meet and wondered which one athlete is doing the most work, you can stop wondering. Find a meet she is at and follow her around. You will get a tour of the entire place.
