Favorite Invitational- WPIAL
Is there a specific race or competition you’re particularly proud of?
I am very proud of my performance at States last year. I didn’t have high expectations going into it. I ended up throwing a PR of 177-7, beating my recent PR by 14 feet. I was proud of this, mostly because I didn’t expect to medal at States, as it was my first year doing track in high school.
How did you first become involved in track and field?
I first got involved in track and field when my dad suggested that I try the javelin because he knew how well I could throw a baseball and football. I was very against it at first and didn’t want to do it at all, but I am happy that I ended up sticking with it.
What is your favorite event to compete in, and why?
My favorite event to compete in is the javelin because I love throwing things. It’s so fun to throw it and then just watch it fly and see where it ends up.
What are your goals this season?
My main goal this season is to get an offer from Pitt. To achieve this, my goal for the javelin is to win States and break 200′.
What is your favorite track and field memory from your high school career so far?
My favorite track and field memory is placing 3rd in WPIALS and qualifying for States. I was very happy to compete at States with my friends on the team.
Canon-Mac senior Louie Liberatore is excitedly anticipating the WPIAL finals, where he is on a mission to capture a WPIAL gold medal and once again qualify for the PIAA Championships. This season, he is currently ranked 3rd in the WPIAL with a throw of 177-5, but he’s aiming even higher, with a goal beyond the 200’ mark.
