The Blahnik family name is already well known before Bobbi ever picks up a discus or a shotput at the Division 3 State Track Meet on Thursday.
Blahnik is ranked third in both the shot put (38-06.00) and the discus (115-05). She'll be pushed not just by the best throwers in the state during second flight, but also by history. Her big sister Kennedy holds the state record in both events (49-01.50 shot put, 161-00.50 discus) and her dad Dean has been coaching track for decades.
The field events begin at 11 a.m. Thursday.
