The Foxes, with 136 points, easily beat out runner-up East Moline United Township’s 86 to win the sectional title.

Yorkville’s Aiden Kolkmeyer won the 110 hurdles (14.41 seconds), the 300 hurdles (37.30) and high jump (1.98 meters). Owen Horeni won the 800 (1:50.18) and 1,600 (4:13.25) and Jayden Ruth swept the sprints, taking the 100 (10.85) and 200 (21.91).

Other Yorkville qualifiers were Peyden Shepherd in the 300 hurdles (second, 38.85), the 4x400 relay (second, 3:22.59), Evan Fals in the pole vault (second, 4.19 meters) and James Sapp Jr. in the discus (second, 53.04).

Sandwich’s Luis Murillo takes one of his throws in the shot put Wednesday, May 20, 2026, during the Class 2A boys track sectional at Rochelle High School.

Sandwich’s Luis Murillo, seeded sixth coming in, qualified for state in the shot put (third, 15.61 meters).

“I’ve done it before so it’s definitely more than I expected,” Murillo said. “I’m happy that I made it and I hope to do great things down there.”

Meanwhile Plano freshman Jayden Balingit (Lumba) qualified in the high jump with his effort of 1.87 meters, one of eight to qualify in the event. He just missed out in the triple jump and long jump.

“It’s just so great,” he said. “I didn’t think I would today for the fact that I was sick for the last week. It was a pretty bad day overall but I feel good that I made it in at least one of my events.”
