Maggie Ewen, Minnesota's top female high school discus thrower of all time, finished third yesterday in the discus competition at the World Youth Track and Field Trials held in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.
The St. Francis High School sophomore who won MSHSL Class AA titles in the discus and shot put this spring threw 154-1 in the competition which was won by Texas star Chamaya Turner at 162-1.

The top two athletes in each event at the two-day meet, which concludes today, earn the right to be considered for inclusion on the 40-member team that will represent the USA at the World Youth Championships in Lille, France next month.
Ewen is scheduled to compete in today's shot put competition where, as she was in the discus, she enters the competition as the #2-seed.
