Though competitors from rival high schools on the track, Mountlake Terrace’s Brynlee Dubiel and Lynnwood’s Porcha Robinson do have one thing in common now: Both are 2024 state medal winners — and two-time medalists at state.

Dubiel captured third place in the 3A Girls 100 Meter Hurdles final on Friday during day two of the WIAA 2A/3A/4A State Track & Field Championships in Tacoma. It’s the second state medal won by the sophomore after a fourth-place finish in last year’s 3A Girls 300 Meter Hurdles event.

Robinson ran to a sixth-place finish in the 3A Girls 100 Meter Hurdles on Friday; she added the sixth- place medal to her collection after winning the eighth-place award in the same event last year as a junior.

Dubiel has another chance at a state track medal this year when she competes in the 3A Girls 300 Meter Hurdles final on Saturday.
