Chicagoland Throwers Series 2014

Girls shot put national record holder Raven Saunders tuned up in between competing in the U.S. Juniors last weekend and World Juniors in two weeks with the Burke graduate putting together an impressive series at in Illinois at the Chicagoland Throws with four marks over 50 feet.

The top high school throwers in the country mixed with elite/professional athletes in the Chicagoland Throwers Series. Heavy rains swept through the windy city in the morning and delayed the meet for an hour. The setback might have caused for some athletes to be off of their personal bests, but the competition still proved worthy of their rankings.
