Ohio State Meet 2017 RecapPublished by
Steiner continues to shine at Ohio state meet By Mary Albl of DyeStat Abby Steiner made sure her outdoor state track meet was a memorable one. After suffering an ACL injury over the summer -- forcing her to miss soccer and ease into track -- the junior sprint star from Dublin High picked up right where she left off, winning the 100 (11.61), 200 (23.56) and running on the winning 4x200 relay (1:38.34) at Jesse Owens Stadium at Ohio State in Columbus, June 2-3. Steiner's 200 time was a state meet record and her third straight title. "The feeling is indescribable, accomplishing all of my goals in my favorite meet of the year,” Steiner told the Columbus Dispatch. “The 200 was the most meaningful record because, frankly, I didn’t expect it. It was just as thrilling coming back in the relay." Sophomore Olivia Howell of Solon clocked an impressive 4:43.25 to win the 1,600 crown.
