The Starr's Mill track team was scheduled to run at the Patriot

relays at Sandy Creek High School, but because some of the

runners would be taking the SAT, they ran at LaGrange instead. There

were 13 teams and final results were not available directly after

the meet. The Panthers broke a lot of personal and school

records though.

Mike Dillard set the school record in the high jump with

a jump of 5'10. he also tied the record in the hurdles with a

time of 41.7. Matt Fuhrmann regained the school record for the 110

high hurdles from Mike Dillard with a time of 16.9. Reuben Houston

set the school record in the long jump with a jump of 19'5 1/2''. It

was also the second meet in a row that Reuben had a triple jump of

45'4. He has only been beaten once this season, at the Georgia

High School Indoor Invitational at the Georgia Dome.

Aaron Wilson broke the school record in the shotput, throwing

it a distance of 41'7. Ray Malcolm set a school record in the

discus, throwing it a distance of 94'8. The other group to set a

record was the 4x400 meter relay team of Michael Thompson, Les

Page, Chris Bailey and LaDon Cooper finishing in a time of 3:34.

"There were lots of great performances at the meet on Saturday,"

said Coach Stephen Pruitt. "The kids continue to work hard and

make improvements." Starr's Mill travels back to LaGrange on

Wednesday to face LaGrange and Troup County.
