Head coach Mike Coder commented after each event.

Here are the results: 

300 meter low hurdles

4th place            Keri Stafford             49.08  (regional finals qualifier)

Coder said, "Keri ran a strong race. She has put herself into a good position to make a strong bid for a state berth in the 300 hurdles. She continues to improve each meet."

100 meter high hurdles

5th place            Lauren Anderson            16.31

Coder commented, "Lauren placed 5th in her heat just missing the top four finish that would have put her into the finals. As a senior, she finishes an outstanding high school track & field career at Benjamin Logan. She is a two time all-Ohio hurdler and finished her career as the school record holder in the 100 meter high hurdles (15.70) and the 300 meter low hurdles (44.83).

1600 meter relay

11th place                                              4:16.26

(Scarlet Tevis - Catarina Orr - Keri Stafford - Lauren Anderson)

Coach Coder said, "The team made a strong run at the school record of 4:12.64. For the three seniors, Scarlet, Keri and Lauren this was their last opportunity to try and best this record. Keri and Lauren are known as outstanding hurdlers while Scarlet, who was in her third regional appearance, was our lead off leg in this relay. She always ran with confidence and had the ability to get us into the race. The team will miss these three athletes."
