The boys’ 3200 meter relay team
of Jordan Maxey, John Evans, Jaron Llewellyn and Chuck Schoedel took
third place with their state-qualifying time of 8:33.90. “The team
shaved 24 seconds off their best time in this event with their efforts
in this race,” Coach Mickey Story noted. “It was an incredible race for
them; they did a fantastic job.”
Schoedel also placed second in
the 3200 meter run with his time of 10:25.96, earning a berth at the
state meet, while Parker Johnson’s 12’0” vault in the pole vault was
good enough for third place as well as qualifying him for state.

Bradford, who placed eighth overall in last year’s state high jump
competition, will return to the state meet once again.

Veverica all ran personal best times, improving their seasons best by 10
seconds. |
