Who is planning on participating in the Jr. High state track meet on the 25th at Pickerington, and in what events?

Jaylen Prater, an 8th grader from Vinton County, will be competing in the 100, 200, and shot put. He has run 11.6 in the 100, 24.3 in the 200, and has thrown 46'9 in the shot.

I know this might not be in SE Ohio, but has anybody seen the Tudor boy from Mount Orab (Western Brown) throw the shot and disc. This boy is tremendously talented for only being in the 8th grade. He can flat out throw. I'm sure he will be there.

Just browsing quickly through the participants list, I saw where Alex Wesel (Marietta), Halle Richards (War), and Peyton Adkins (Ga) are going. Halle is running the mile and 800, and Peyton is running the newly added 2 mile. Good luck to the southeast runners!

Let me add one to the list, Karena Fulks from Jackson in the 100 and 200.

Congrats to both Peyton and Halle on their first place finishes today at the Middle School State Track meet! All of your hard work all year has paid off!!!!! Can't wait for next year's cross country and track seasons!!!!!

Is their a web-site for this event to view the results?

They are posted here:

Vinton County's Jaylen Prater won the DII/III boys 100m dash and finished 4th in the shot put.

Way to Go Halle!

Congrats to Paige Grosel and Alex Wesel, from Marietta. Paige finished 2nd in the pole vault. Alex finished 2nd in the 800 and 4th in the mile, looked very comfortable running against tough competition.

Thanks for posting that web-site, however I tried it and it said that it didn't exist. Could you check that for me as I am interested in looking at the results.

Thanks. That one worked. I wanted to check on the boy of a former classmate of mine from high school The Tudor boy from Mount Orab that I mentioned on in a previous post finished 6th in the Division I discus and 2nd in the Division I shot put. I was pretty sure that he would compete in this meet.

Some amazing young athletes put up some unreal times/distances for jr. high. This meet is a must see for all with an interest in jr. high track.
Peyton and Halle, way to bring it home girls!

just letting you guys know that Greg Bender from Coal Grove placed 1st in the shot put, 2nd in high jump (he did not even jump all year) and 2nd place is discus...coal grove is a div. 4 school but he competed in div. 2/3 and he also beat div. 1 schools in shot put and high jump...way to go Bender!!! I am always talkin about this kid and I am sure he is going to be college material and he could go in so many different sports!!!!

run521... just a little info. track and field only has div.1,div.2 and div.3 so if your school playes say in div.6 in football it will be in div.3 for track what ever your high school's div. is in track will be what div. your jr. high school will also be in but regardless he did a great job at the state middle school meet..

Oh I am sorry run521 it should have been to 1fan, again I am sorry..
