HAVILAND: April 17 – The lady tracksters of Edon, Pettisville and Stryker were in the mix at the 2014 Wayne Trace Invitational on April 17.
All three schools came home with event performances in which to take pride, with first place finishes going to Alexa Leppelmeier and Jordyn Pursel of Pettisville, second place finishes going to Audra Rupp and Paige Speelman of Stryker, and a record setting performance by Hannah Gutting of Edon. The Lady Bomber senior broke the 2009 record of Edon’s Jenni Troyer with a discus fling of 128′ 5″…almost half a foot better than the old mark.
