Whether it was running or jumping Aberdeen Central athletes got a boost from their teammates during the Eastern South Dakota Conference indoor track and field meet Tuesday at the Barnett Center. No team points were kept in the meet, which featured every ESD school except Brookings. Aberdeen Central athletes turned in many solid performances. Sam Rohlfs captured the triple jump with teammate Jacob Merxbauer second. "We’ve been best friends since like we were 3-years-old, so we go way back," Rohlfs said. "He helps me so much and motivates me. Since we’ve been freshmen we’ve always been the top triple jumpers. Without him I wouldn’t have that motivation to go further and beat him by a couple more feet." Rohlfs won the event with a mark of 43-feet 9 1/4 inches. "I was hoping for 44 feet, but I haven’t jumped in two years, so I was OK with this," he said. "I haven’t had any practice. One day getting on the board and that’s all we’ve done. It’s a good star
