Freshman Caden Royal debuted with a 26’5.5” put in the shot put event placing 43rd overall and ninth among freshmen. Cody Field placed 80th in the 55-meter dash preliminaries in 8.86 seconds. Will Perkins and Ryan Clark placed third and 54th respectively in the one-mile run in 4:30.95 and 6:02.64. Perkins placed only four seconds behind Brunswick High School’s Tyler Patterson and two seconds behind Falmouth High School’s Ben Greene.

For the girls, Marissa Davison placed 47th in shot put with a 15’6” put. Grace Campbell placed 17th in the one-mile run in 6:14.52.
