Zachary Webb sets Dakota record as Cougars win MAC Red track and field meet

Zachary Webb keeps setting the bar higher, literally and figuratively.
The Dakota senior broke the school high jump record for the third time this season Tuesday when he cleared 6-feet-8 to help the Cougars win their seventh straight Macomb Area Conference Red Division league meet.
Dakota finished with 178 points to 106 for runner-up Romeo. Host Chippewa Valley was third with 90.66 points, followed by Eisenhower 42.33, Grosse Pointe North 40 and Grosse Pointe South 31.
“I did 6-8, got the win and it felt good,” Webb said. “I’m preparing for the regional on Friday (also at Chippewa Valley). That’s the day that takes me to states.”
That’s Webb’s goal after missing last season when spring sports were shut down because of the pandemic. He cleared 6-9 during the 2020 indoor season.
“During COVID I had a little gap where I forget technique things and I had to learn to pick them back up again,” he said. “At the start of the season I did 6-6, then I went a little bit downhill because I had to tweak everything. Now I’m at the point where I’m back up to where I was.”
Dakota coach Mike Timpa thinks Webb can contend for a state title.
“He’s right there,” Timpa said. “If he’s clean through 6-8 that makes him a contender for a state championship. He works hard in practice. We look at everything and break it down into little pieces to get everything perfect. When he’s jumping good, he has springs in his feet, for sure.”
No one is happier than Webb that the temperatures have been rising this week.
“On a hot day, I’m ready to go,” he said. “Cold days I haven’t jumped well. I just put those aside because nice days like these build up my confidence.”
So how about the prediction of near 90 for Friday’s regional?
“That might be almost a little too hot, but I’ll drink a bunch of water and I’ll be OK,” he said.
Webb and Timpa can both see a 7-foot jump in his future.
“In the summer when I’d practice by myself or with my dad, off the box I’d be doing almost 6-11, 7-foot,” he said. “I think I have a 7-foot jump in me. It’s just that everything has to be right.”
Webb had a good instructor when the Dakota coaches weren’t able to work with him during the shutdown. His dad, Darryl Webb, was a 6-6 high jumper for Cousino in the ‘90s.
“High jump has so many interesting factors — wind, temperature, how you’re feeling from practices and other races,” Timpa said. “When his timing is on and everything is clicking, he has 6-10 and maybe even 7-foot potential. He had it going today. He was able to go 6-8 and had some good attempts at 6-10.”
Webb also competed in the high jump and finished fourth at 19-9.
Webb’s record wasn’t the only highlight of the meet for Dakota.
Corey Royster nipped Chippewa Valley’s Shamar Heard by .10 in the 100-meter dash and set a school record with his 10.57 time. The old mark was 10.69 by Jeron Kelley in 2018.
Heard, who won the 200, and Royster are friendly rivals.
“We’re on the same AAU team,” Royster said. “He always beats me in the 200, but sometimes I get him in the 100. I came out here hoping I would set (the record). I just did what I had to do and did a 10.5.”
There could be a lot more of those duels in the future because Heard, who nipped teammate Jonas Morris in the 200 by .11, is a freshman and Royster is a sophomore.
“When you have competition on the track, you’re going to have your best races,” Timpa said. “That’s what the championship season is all about. If myself and my assistant coaches have done their jobs the kids are fine-tuned for the postseason. Everybody should be running their best races Friday and continuing to the county meet and hopefully, the state meet.”
It looked like Dakota’s Jacob Harberts would win the 1,600 in a breeze but Romeo’s Jack Wallace had other ideas. Wallace caught Harberts in the final 200 meters but Harberts regained the lead and won the race by .16.
“I was just trying to relax a little for Friday, because that’s a big meet,” Harberts said. “I was talking to (Wallace) before the race and he was going for a regional qualifier. I’m pretty sure he got it. I’m proud of him for that.
“I was trying to take it a little easy but he caught up to me, so I had to try something at the end. He has a really good kick.”
Timpa summed up Harberts’ finish.
“He doesn’t want to lose,” Timpa said. “Our kids have the mentality that regardless of who’s on the track they want to win. When someone goes by you, you get a little competitive, no matter what sport.”
Dakota’s Caden Ott and Grosse Pointe North’s Connor Lefebvre tied for first in the pole vault (11.6), and the Cougars’ Matthew Singer won the 300 hurdles (41.19).
Romeo won four individual championships, including the shot put (45-7) and discus (126-11) by Michael Heldman. Jase Davidson won the 110 hurdles with a personal record 15.64 and Tyler Pressel took the 800 in 2:03.03, also a PR.
In addition to his first in the 200, Heard won the long jump (20-1 1/4). His Chippewa Valley teammate Karol Kozlowski won the 400 in 52.02. Noah Lawson of Grosse Pointe North won the 3,200 in 10:29.43.
Dakota won the 400, 1,600 and 3,200 relays and Chippewa Valley took the 800 relay.
