LAKEWOOD – What a weekend it was for Agur Dwol, and what a high school career as well. 
 
Competing in her final high school track meet, the Mullen senior opened the event with her third state title in Thursday’s 4A girls triple jump (42-5.5) while establishing a new Colorado prep record. Then on Saturday, she took first for the second consecutive year in the long jump (20-1.75) and later helped Mullen win the 4x200 relay (1:42.75) — not a bad few days for the University of Oklahoma track commit. 
 
While a third place finish (49.06) in Sunday’s 4x100 relay wasn’t how Dwol had hoped to close her high school career, she remained grateful for the success of the weekend.
 
The key for Dwol was to keep focused on what could be controlled: herself. 
 
“Honestly, I really don't care about places like first or second or third,” Dwol said. “It's always just going to be me versus me. I was like, if I PR, then I'll be happy. I wasn't chasing anything specifically.”
 
In the record-setting triple jump, Dwol used that same simple approach with a smattering of well-deserved confidence. 
 
“I knew I had it in me," Dwol said. "I was like, 'You just got to take it, you got to do everything right.' I'm on the runway and I'm just thinking, I'm like, 'Run to the board, run to the board, hold on to it and finish.’ And that's exactly what I did; I just trusted my steps and let my feet carry me.”
 
Her 42 feet, 5.5 inches state record triple jump was an astounding 5 feet and 10.5 inches greater than second place Ella Pears of Longmont. 
 
Dwol added that nothing changed in terms of mindset on Saturday, which ended in her fifth and sixth career state titles. But with her high school career now in the books, the team aspect is what Dwol will miss the most. 
 
“I'm just upset that I can't run with any of these people anymore,” Dwol said. “It's a fun team and I love them all to death.”
 
Mullen head coach Darius Reed noticed a similar chemistry that helped catalyze not only Dwol, but the entire program’s success.
 
“When she came in, she had no idea that she would be as important as she is now, but I think she quickly understood her impact on other student-athletes based on how hard she worked in practice and performed at track meets,” Reed said. “The position that she's put us in is one that I just can't really describe.”  
 
Reed added that the goal prior to the season was to simply develop her speed while challenging her on the runway. Dwol’s work was certainly rewarded on the state’s biggest stage. 
 
“I knew she was fast and I knew we just needed to really develop it,” Reed said. “Everybody has gotten the opportunity to see what I've been able to see in practice for the last three years.”
 
Dwol was joined by Kilah Freelon, Shannon McCarthy and Paige Lousberg on the Mustangs' 4x100 relay.
