Portage won Tuesday's sectional, but girls coach Chuck Heimberg doesn't think the Indians have maxxed out by any stretch. "We've got to run our last 1,000 meters better," Heimberg said. "With 1,000 to go, we still had four girls in front of Valpo's second. They did a tremendous job, just like at the DAC, running strong the last 1,000 meters. If we get ourselves to that point Saturday, the following Saturday, finishing off a race a little better, we'll be in a little better shape." On a good day, Heimberg thinks the Indians can contend for the regional and semistate titles and finish in the top 10 at state. "We are every bit as good as everybody else in our area as far as having a shot, along with Crown Point, Lake Central and Valpo," he said. "We hope this puts us over the hump of having the confidence that, yeah, we can do that." -- Jim Peters
