Kelsey Firebaugh finished fourth in the 55 meters and had a state qualifying time in the event. Kelsey also ran on the fourth place 4×200 relay team with Ripley Barry, Kaia Binns and Naveah VanBuren.
VanBuren took a sixth in the triple jump with a state qualifying distance. Drew Whitson took a sixth in the 1,600 meters.
For the boys, Gavin Binns was fifth in the 55. His time was fast enough to qualify for the state meet.
