PEARCY — The Bryant Blue Lady Hornets track team of Bethel Middle School earned first-place finishes in 14 events while the effort of the seventh grade was highlighted by a school record high jump by Brylee Bradford in one of three first-place performances at the Lake Hamilton Junior High Invitational on Monday.
Bradford cleared 4’9” breaking the old mark of 4’6”.
“Brylee has had worked really hard on high jump and I’m glad she is reaping those benefits now,” said Bethel coach Denise Smith.
Elsewhere, Smith said, “Our eighth grade sprinters had an impressive run at Lake Hamilton with Ashlyn Barnett and Erin Ives earning first-place ribbons in their heats in the 100 meters.
“We have been really successful in the 1600-meter and 800-meter runs taking home first, second, and third place ribbons,” she noted. “Lawson Godwin, Alana Gould, McKenzie Hicks, Samantha Achorn have done an awesome job at hurdles all taking home a blue ribbon this meet.”
Regarding the seventh-grade team, Smith said, “They were without their usual relay teams due to some schedule conflicts but Natalie Edmonson, Ryleigh Young and Maddie Nelson did a good job filling those spots. Hannah Brewer had a close run in the 100-metere hurdles but pulled out a victory taking home a blue ribbon with a time of 18.50.”
Bethel wraps up the 2018 season on Monday, April 23, at Hot Springs Lakeside.
