MAY 14 -- Camoni Turner qualified for the 200 meter final in Friday’s preliminary heats of the Class AA track sectional, which continues Saturday at Bartlett High School.
Turner and Shae Loving both competed in the 100 and 200 preliminaries.
Tomorrow, Turner and Loving join teammates Madison Brooks and Mikayla Cole to run in the 4X100 relay final and the 4X200 relay final. There were no preliminary heats in these events.
The top four finishers in Saturday’s finals advance to the state meet.
“These four young ladies have worked hard all year long despite the adversity of Covid and a lack of available track meets,” South Side coach Bryan Dickens said. “We have had to travel further to compete this year, but it never stopped their determination. They had a goal that they set early on in the year. They want to qualify in the relays. They’ve worked hard. Hopefully tomorrow they will qualify for state.”
