Amarachukwu Oguchi has started her senior season off with a bang.
In the first meet of the season, coming off a year where the high school track season was canceled in mid-March of 2020, the John Cooper School thrower set the bar high right out of the gates by setting a new school record in the discus with a toss of 142-feet-6-inches.
<div class="rm-embed embed-media"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet">🚨NEW SCHOOL RECORD🚨<br>Congratulations Amarachukwu! <br>142' 6" . . . and counting!<a href="https://twitter.com/vypehouston?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@vypehouston</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/ConroeSports?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@ConroeSports</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/JCS_Track?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@JCS_Track</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/BaylorTrack?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@BaylorTrack</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/WOLsports?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@WOLsports</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/WoodlandsStuCtr?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@WoodlandsStuCtr</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/BuiltByChampions?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#BuiltByChampions</a> <a href="https://t.co/PyoVfV5qdW">pic.twitter.com/PyoVfV5qdW</a><br>— Cooper Athletics (@JCS_Athletics) <a href="https://twitter.com/JCS_Athletics/status/1365453424721035265?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">February 27, 2021</a></blockquote> <script async="" charset="utf-8" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js"></script></div><p>Looking back to 2020, the best discus throw by Oguchi came also in the first meet at the Woodlands Christian Invitational with a toss of 122-feet-7-inches. Due to the shortened season, John Cooper School only competed in four meets and there were no SPC Championships. </p><p>In the summer, Oguchi competed in 10 different events for discus and her distances just kept getting better and better. On July 24 in the PPA Virtual Meet #12 she hit 135-2.5, on July 31 in the USATF Youth Virtual Summer Challenge she hit 140-6.5 and then 142-11 on September 4. </p><p><ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:block" data-ad-client="ca-pub-9787720712654893" data-ad-slot="8738871937" data-ad-format="auto" data-full-width-responsive="true"></ins>

</script></p><p>So, in a year her throws have advanced by nearly 20 feet, which is just remarkable. </p><p>Oguchi also competes in the shot put, which she threw for 38-feet-2-inches at the Dick Phillips Relays last week, which is just shy of her PR of 39-10.5, which was set last year. </p><p>With the hopes of a full season, Oguchi will eye to win a pair of SPC Championships in a few months and top her 5th place discus and 2nd place shot put finishes from the 2019 SPC Championships. </p>
