ELCA Wins 1st Girls State Title in School History

                 

 

Eagles Landing Christian began their run to a state title by dominating the 4x100m race with a respectable time of 48.93. OLM placed 2nd in 50.16, and Pace 3rd in 51.01. ACS added 4 points in 5th to stay in the fray.

 

 

In the 400m Chelsea Zoller from Holy Innocents came thru the finish line in 57.49 with OLM's Leah Banks claiming 2nd in 59.22 and Jade Davis of St. Francis 3rd in 59.75. ACS continued to scrap away getting a 5th from Selena Watkins.  

 

 

ELCA began to put the pedal on the metal beginning with the 100m as T'aja Cameron taking the Gold in 12.03 and teamate Alexis Ross placing 5th. 

 

 

Collier Middleton of Walker had her best race of the season with a clean race in the 100h winning Gold in 14.93. Randi Bohler of Holy Innocents came across 2nd in 15.18. Landmark Christian added huge team points taking 4th/5th by Jordan Boyd and Rachel Morley.  

 

 

No matter who one was cheering for, the 800m race was a great battle the final 100m with Jade Davis nipping Darlington's Stephanie Ward by .26 clocking a 2:20.31.  No teams in contention had a chance to score in the 800m.  

 

 

T'aja Cameron of ELCA then put things out of reach as she added another Gold medal in the 200m posting a 24.76. Zoller from Holy Innocents took 2nd in 25.10.

 

 

Lauren Hadley of Pace won the Gold in the 300h in 47.12, but Landmark really took care of business in an event they have excelled in for years placing 2nd/4th behind Rachel Morley (47.18) and Boyd (47.66) Emily Lorenz of Mount Paran was 3rd in 47.63. ACS picked up 6 points, but it was too little, too late for the defending champs. Though, they must be commended placing 3rd overall without winning an event...

 

 

ELCA closed out the A Private meet winning the 4x400 in 4:07.66, with Pace finishing strong in 2nd at 4:10 edging OLM by .50.
