On Saturday, the Cardinals competed at the Licklider Relays in Jefferson City. Unseasonably warm temperatures took their toll, however, the Cardinals kept that to a minimum, turning in some great numbers against even greater competition.
Though many medals were not garnered, there were several personal best times recorded.
Those medaling (top 4) at the event included:
Boys
Triston Switzer, 3rd, Pole Vault
Jase Wilson, 2nd, 100m
Jase Wilson, 4th, 200m
Isaac Tennal, 3rd, Discus
Girls
Briley Wishard, 3rd, Javelin
