As she crossed the finish line and looked up to the giant scoreboard, Scout Snodgrass didn’t care so much about her placing.

“Dang,” she said. “So close.”

The Kingfisher High School senior had just finished the finals of the 400 meter dash at the Class 4A state track and field championships Saturday in Catoosa.

Snodgrass already earned a pair of bronze medals at state.

Her two-mile relay team on Friday placed third and earlier in the day Snodgrass was the bronze medalist in the 800 meter run.

She took fourth in that open 400, but her placement on the medal stand was of secondary concern.

“I really wanted the school record,” Snodgrass said. “But I set a PR, so I’m happy with that.”

The school record of 57.58 seconds has been held by Brittania (Long) Schroeder since 2004.

Schroeder also set the school marks in the 200 and 800 that year. Snodgrass snapped the 800 mark in winning the gold medal at state in 2025.

The 200 mark dropped in Kingfisher’s final regular season meet in Weatherford this season.

The 400 - for now - will remain Schroeder’s as Snodgrass finished in 57.75 in her final open race.

Snodgrass’ three medals led KHS to 38 team points, good for seventh place in the team standings.

She leaves KHS with 11 medals at the state meet and the school record holder in the 200, 800, mile and twomile relays.

“She had a great weekend,” coach Stefan Seifried said of Snodgrass, who is headed to the University of Tulsa next year. “Competing in four events is a hard thing to do, especially when it’s the hardest events in track and field.”

It was Ela Hartman who got KHS jumpstarted Friday, literally.

The sophomore cleared 5 feet, 2 inches to tie a PR and place third in the high jump.

Shortly after, Snodgrass, Mattie Slezickey, Harper Evans and Ryann Farrar took to the track for the 3,200 meter relay.

At one point early in Evans’ second leg, Kingfisher was in ninth place.

The senior got Kingfisher back to seventh when she handed off to Snodgrass.

By the time the latter finished with her leg, Kingfi sher trailed only Lincoln Christian.

Ultimately, KHS finished third in 9:53.47.

Later on Friday, Snodgrass competed in the 400 prelims.

She crossed in 57.87, which was a PR for her that lasted less than 24 hours.

Fellow seniors Abbie Myers and Reese Roof also took part in the 300 hurdle prelims. Both punched their tickets to Saturday’s finals.

Hartman again got Kingfisher on the board first thing Saturday as she placed fourth in the long jump with a leap of 16-11 1/4.

The sophomore has now medaled three times in two years.

Later in the meet, Myers took sixth in the 300 hurdles with a 47.04, a new PR.

Roof, who set a PR in Friday’s prelims with a 48.31, finished eighth in 48.39.

The four seniors accounted for a bulk of Kingfi sher’s point total.

“Those are four competitors,” said Seifried. “They are going to be hard to replace.”

Kingfisher also saw Evans placed 10th in the two-mile early on Friday. Although she didn’t score for KHS, she did set a new PR of 12:28.45.

Kingfisher also had the 800 meter relay team of Taitym Walker, Myers, Roof and Maya Haney qualify as well as pole vaulters Rylee Long-Bush and Hinsley Brodrick.

There was also the mile relay team, which placed ninth.

Farrar was part of that quartet that set a new school record in the regional, but was unable to compete due to an ankle injury suffered on Friday.

Chloe Richardson filled in at the last minute and she, Myers, Slezickey and Snodgrass placed ninth.

Seifried said Richardson’s willingness to step in was one reason that made this year’s team special.

“Just watching them step up when needed or taking care of their teammates made me proud,” he said. “They ran with a lot of heart and ambition.”
