WENATCHEE — The Moses Lake Chiefs got wins in two events each by Aaron Wafer and Billy Matthews to defeat Cashmere 76-65 in a non-league track meet held in Wenatchee Wednesday.

Wafer, the defending 4A 200-meter dash champion, won that event along with the 400 dash. Wafer ran the 200 in a time of 22.94, winning the event by nearly one-half of one second. In the 400, Wafer ran a 52.52, easily surpassing the 53.19 run by Eastmont's Aaron McGregor. The Moses Lake sprinter also turned in a second-place finish in the 100 dash, narrowly losing to Eastmont's Dan Simmons.

Moses Lake dominated the throwing events, as Billy Matthews and Tad Harman finished first and second respectively in both the discus and the shot put. Matthews threw a 136-01 in the discus, with Harman close behind at 132-05. The Chiefs' Spencer Fackrell gave Moses Lake a sweep of the top three spots in the discus with a throw of 122-07.

In the shot put, Matthews had a throw of 46-61/2, with Harman again trailing close behind at 44-93/4. Brandan Anderson nearly gave the Chiefs a sweep of the shot put as well as his throw of 41-61/4 which got him just 51/2 inches away from third place.

Grant Fish had a throw of 150-10 to finish third in the javelin, and the Moses Lake 4x100 relay team finished second with a 46.08.

The Lady Chiefs competed Wednesday as well, with several outstanding individual performances.

Noyes ran the 110 hurdles in 16.82 to top Jori Blackwell of Cashmere by more than one-half of one second. In the triple jump, Noyes recorded a mark of 33-61/4 to win the event by 51/2 inches. Noyes also finished second in the 400, running a 61.72 to finish less than two-tenths of a second behind Wenatchee's Kristen Ballinger.
