State Meet Participants

Madison sent 5 athletes to the state meet in Eugene this year.  Here is how they did:

Andrew Haslam, Sr., Long Jump:  Andrew surprised people at the league championships by qualifying for the state meet.  His best jump was 19' 10.5"

Ruby Buckley, Sr., 300m low-hurldes:  After working hard all year, Ruby earned her way to the state meet and ran a 49.77 race.

William Charles Harold IV, Sr., 110hh:  Charles made his return to state in the 110hh for the second consecutive year.  He ran a 16.33 seconds race.

Lydia Churchill, Jr., High Jump:  Lydia was probably the biggest surprise of the 5 state qualifiers, but earned her way by clearing the qualifying mark, and then taking second place to boot.  At the state meet she cleared 5'1"

Eric Powe, Jr., 300ih:  Eric was another surprise qualifier, at least to the rest of the district, because he had only run the 300ih three times in a meet.  His ability got him to state, where he ran a 42.65.
