Two years into her high school track and field career, Khloe Kastner has competed in the maximum of eight events at the state meet.

Her results? Seven gold medals. One silver. “That’s beyond impressive,” said Cashion track and field head coach Tony Wood of his sophomore phenom. “There’s not a lot you can say that she didn’t already say out there on the track.”

Kastner made Cashion history in multiple ways last weekend when she won four golds at the Class 2A state meet held at Western Heights High School.

She’s the first ever Cashion track athlete to win four state championships in one meet.

Kastner repeated as the long jump champion as well as a member of the 400 and 800 meter relay teams that won golds as well.

The lone event keeping Kastner from being an eighttime state champ in her career is the 200 meter dash.

As a freshman, she was edged by Stroud’s Peyton Davis who became a threetime winner of the event last year.

The two commenced to battling it out throughout this track season.

Davis beat Kastner in the 200 at this year’s meets in Stroud, Tonkawa and the Cashion relays.

Kastner returned the favor at Hennessey and in the Skordle Relays, also at Cashion.

But then Kastner got the big one.

First, though, came some history.

In her preliminary race, Kastner didn’t just win, she set a new Class 2A state meet record with a time of 24.41.

Davis, running in a different heat, was seeded second with her time of 24.52.

As was the case last year and all this season, they were neck and neck down the stretch.

But Kastner was better. She won the 200 finals in 24.81, just .11 faster than Davis, who earlier had won the 100 meter dash finals.

In the long jump, Kastner repeated with her new PR of 17 feet, 9 1/2 inches.

That was more than a foot better than the state runner-up.

It’s also just one-quarter inch shy of the school record set by Kelsey Pyle in 1991.

Reese Hobgood, Emerie Eubanks and Kate Nabavi joined Kastner on the winning relay teams.

Their 400 time was 49.08.

They won the 800 relay with a 1:44.16.

Both times were better than those of a year ago when Cashion won relays at state for the first time ever.

Hobgood and Nabavi were repeat champs in one event each.

Hobgood was a member of last year’s 400 relay team along with her older sister Abby Hobgood, Chevy Eubanks (Emerie’s older sister) and Kastner.

Nabavi was on the 800 relay team that captured gold. She was joined by Kastner, Chevy Eubanks and Abby Hobgood.

Cashion also pulled in two points when Brooke Shafer placed second in the shot put with a heave of 33-8 1/2.

All told, Cashion scored 62 points, good for a tie for fourth place.

Laverne won the state title with 86.

Tonkawa was the runner- up with 74 and Fairview got third with 66.5.

Regent Prep also scored 62 points.

Cashion’s boys, meanwhile, had one of their strongest showings at state in several years.

They placed eighth with 32 points.

Grayson Davis medaled in four events.

The junior was third in the 400 and sixth in the long jump.

He was also a part of the 400 and 1,600 relay teams that earned trips to the medal stand.

King Underwood, Cole Baustert and Hank Brown teamed up with him on both relays. The mile relay team captured the bronze medal and the 400 relay team was fourth.

Cameron Billen snatched a point for the Wildcats with an eighth place finish in the discus.

The good news for Wood and the Wildcats.

“They had a really good weekend,” he said. “And all those guys are back.

“I’m excited about their future.”

That future - before next season - will include another year of work with Tatum Robertson, the school’s strength and conditioning coach.

Robertson was a bronze medalist in the shot put in 2018, the year Cashion won the 2A girls state championship.

She has returned to her alma mater and is now making an even bigger - literally - impact on the track program, said Wood.

“Some of the transformations our kids have gone through and what they look like relative to last year is unbelievable,” Wood said. “There’s the old adage ‘bigger, faster, stronger.’

“That’s us and it’s a credit to her.”

Wood said all of Cashion’s female track athletes are in Robertson’s class as are most of the males.

“I really think our times dropped and we improved our heights and distances in the field events because of that,” Wood said. “It’s working because, as they say, ‘the proof is in the pudding.’”
