Fishburne Track Competes at Stonewall Jackson Meet & VIC Championship Schedule
Glen Franklin won the long jump at 19’4”, which is over two feet off his best jump this year. He had to borrow Coach McManus’s shoes, which didn’t help!
Also, we’re making some tweaks and other adjustments to his technique, and that takes some time to get used to.
Lozie Goolsby was fourth in his first-ever high school-level high jump, clearing 4’, 10”. (First place was 5’4”)
Colin Turnnidge turned in a blistering final lap facing some strong winds to take the blue ribbon in the 3200 in 11:22, as a Stonewall Jackson runner hung on his shoulder for most of the race.
Travis Knapp, with very little running this spring as he’s playing baseball, was fifth in the 1600 in 5:49. Knapp also placed third in the 300 meter hurdles, which is a rather precarious event to run on an asphalt track.
The 4 x 100 relay team of Bevan Morrison-Rodgers, Gary Nelson, Kevin Valverde, and Glen Franklin placed second.
Fishburne placed third out of four teams, but beat MMA 20-18.
