The Greenwood boys secured a commanding 100–37 victory, while the girls’ side saw a tighter contest, with the Wildcats edging out the Indians 83–65.

On the track, Drue Bailey brought home a victory in the 400M (1:13.0), and Audrina Hoover showed her versatility by winning the 110M Hurdles (19.0) and placing 2nd in the 300M Hurdles.

Lohr Leads the Charge for Millersburg Boys

In the 3200M run, Gabe Matter outlasted the field to take the top spot in 11:42, adding to an earlier 2nd place finish in the 1600M.
