Track competes in Bridgeport Inv.

Keianna Vera set a personal record with her javelin throw of 91 feet, 7 inches as the Lake Roosevelt track and field team competed in Bridgeport on Friday to compete in their invitational.

“The weather deteriorated late in the meet and the throwers were competing into a strong side wind,” Head Coach Lori Adkins said. “While most competitors’ javelins were being carried out of bounds and short, Keianna used a smart strategy and threw a PR! Her efforts were certainly an example of being a competitor no matter the conditions and never giving up!”

Matthew Tillman also set a PR in the 100-meter dash with a time of 12.49 seconds.

The Raiders were scheduled to compete again today, May 10, in Tonasket for the CWB League Championship scheduled to start at 4 p.m.
