PEARCY — Spencer Sullivan turned in a personal best and John Winn set a new school record[more] as they represented the Bryant Hornets at the 56th annual Meet of Champions Saturday at Lake Hamilton High School.
Sullivan’s clocking in at 15.00 in the 110 meter hurdles, earned a third-place finish. Winn set the new school standard ini the 400 meter run at 49.73. It was good for a fifth-place finish at the Meet.
“I’m really proud of both of these young men,” stated Hornets coach Steve Oury. “It’s always nice to see a senior finish their career on a high note, and that’s just what Spencer did. He took almost a half second off of his personal best in the last few weeks, and he saved the best for last.
“John is just a sophomore, but we knew he was capable of breaking 50,” the coach continued. “He ran a tough race against some excellent competition and kept fighting all the way to the line. It will be fun to watch him over the next couple of years.”
