In what turned out to be the nicest weather of the calendar Spring this season (except for some stiff wind early afternoon) 33 schools competed at one of the best Track facilties in the state. Georgia tracksters recorded 23 MileSplit 2nd team (Silver Elite) performances. Host school Carrollton had a successful day, dominating the boys side taking the team title and their Girls were team runnerups. MileSplit GA was onsite having a busy day shooting 90 race videos and a 4000 pic photo gallery!
