by Carley Bruner

On April 22 the track team traveled to Colon and beat the Magi. It was a very close meet, as the ladies won by a mere 10 points. “It was a really tough meet and everyone had to put in a lot of effort. Everyone worked really hard and it was really competitive,” said sophomore Morgan McFaul.

Individual first places were taken by juniors Elainee Poling, Katelyn Kipfmiller, and sophomores Morgan McFaul and Jackie Page. Poling took first in the long jump and 800m run, Page took first in pole vault and the 100m and 300m hurdles, Kipfmiller took first in the shot put, and McFaul took first in the 1600m and 3200m runs.

Two relay teams also contributed to a win, the 3200m relay team consisting of McFaul, sophomore Amber Lennox, freshman Jentry McAdams, and Poling and the 1600m relay team consisting of junior Ashley Buckner, Lennox, Kipfmiller, and Poling.
