Johnathan Wilson grabbed gold in the 800-meter run with a time of 2:33.34.
The 7th-grade boys 4x200 meter relay team (Hunter Heckart, Lane Rogers, Kurtis Caruthers, Hunter Landis) has been almost unstoppable this year and grabbed first place with a time of 1:50.99.

The 7th-grade boys 800-meter sprint medley had a very exciting race as the anchor Lane Rogers came from behind in the last 100 meters of his 400-meter run and sprinted into 1st place for the team (Dominic Liberto, Hunter Heckart, KJ Schanz, Lane Rogers).
