Performance of the Week: Menominee's Brady Schultz
May 20, 2022
Brady Schultz ♦ Menominee
Track & Field ♦ Senior
Schultz high-jumped 6 feet, 9 inches, during a meet against Marinette, Wis., on May 9, breaking the Menominee school record and tying the top high jump posted by a Michigan high school athlete this season. He previously had tied the school record at 6-8 – registering that height in winning last season’s Upper Peninsula Division 1 Final – and he’s undefeated in the event this spring including winning at his Regional on Thursday at Marquette. He also ran on the winning 800-meter relay at the Regional.
The 6-foot-6 forward was among leading scorers for the Maroons basketball team that finished runner-up in Division 3 in March, and dropped a team-high 19 points in the championship game against Schoolcraft. He played football as well, and intends to continue high-jumping at the college level and he continues to consider those options.

Be the Referee: Track & Field False Starts & Restarts

Be The Referee is a series of short messages designed to help educate people on the rules of different sports, to help them better understand the art of officiating, and to recruit officials.
Below is this week's segment – Track & Field False Starts & Restarts - Listen
We’re on the track today and in the starting blocks for the 100-meter dash. Just before the starter’s pistol goes off, the runner in Lane 3 lunges forward and false starts. What’s the call?
The runner who committed the false start is disqualified. There’s no longer a warning or second chance given. Everyone else lines up and gets ready to start again.
What about when a runner falls due to contact with another competitor in a distance race? If the contact happens in the first 50 meters, the race should be recalled – meaning they are brought back to the starting line for a re-do. The old rule called for a re-start if the contact occurred in the first 100 meters – but now it is within the first 50 meters.
