Clairbourn School hosted students in grades 5-6 from Chandler School, High Point Academy, Mayfield Junior and Polytechnic for the Paul Korn Invitational Track Meet last Thursday.
The Chandler boys’ team took first place in a landslide with 60 points. Mayfield Junior placed second with 15 points and High Point finished third (10 points).
Meanwhile, the Polytechnic girls’ team scored 31 points to take the top spot over runner-up Mayfield Junior (27 points) and third-place Chandler (17 points).
“Being able to practice in the parking garage when the crazy rain hit really allowed for us to get in some good training,” Chandler Athletic Director Bill Anderson said regarding the boys’ first-place finish.
Anderson was pleased with his student-athletes’ consistent efforts despite the setbacks that came with the recent storm.
Polytechnic head coach Jamie Bell similarly stated how happy she was to see the kids on the field competing again.
Meanwhile, Mayfield Junior coach Jason Windass said the sunny weather creating the perfect conditions for a track meet.
“Who knew I would be wearing a T-shirt today,” Windass said. “Kudos to all of the athletes out here for a fantastic meet.”
All of the student-athletes, coaches and parents seemed to be thrilled to be outside witnessing another start to an exciting track and field season.
