“We had a lot of personal and season bests,” said Bradford coach Larry Stillman “Our freshman hurdlers Aliya and Alyssa had their best races ever. Emma Pilon in the 400 had a great race and has dropped her time three seconds in one week. Our 4×100 ran well again and our three 800 runners — Caitlyn (Taylor), Miley (Swanson) and Leila (Bines) ran well with Miley and Leila having personal bests. In the 1600, Jenn Bouquin has dropped 40 seconds this season. In the high jump, Emma and Kelcie were solid. Our throwers had good nights with Kalie leading us with her second place in the javelin and Addison Carter having her best throw by seven feet. Sophia Asp had her best discus throw by 10 feet. We are improving every meet.”
