DES MOINES, Iowa — North Union junior Riley Bauer garnered another silver medal during Day 2 of the Iowa Class 1A state track & field competition at Drake Stadium in Des Moines.

After earning a runner-up showing in the 3,200-meter run on Thursday, Bauer ran the anchor leg on the Warriors’ state runner-up distance medley relay team during Friday’s meet.

Lisbon’s Derek Bova, Bailey Arwine, Blake Langhurst and Payton Bahl captured the Iowa Class 1A state championship by breaking the tape in the distance medley relay with a gold-medal time of 3:34.85.

In the Class 1A girls 4×100-meter relay preliminaries on Friday, North Union’s foursome placed 16th in 53.40 to miss advancing to Saturday’s state final.
