Five Raider track athletes compete at 2B districts

Five members of the Lake Roosevelt track and field team competed at the 2B District 5/6 Championships in Quincy on Friday.

“The Raiders put up a great effort as they closed out their season,” remarked Head Coach Lori Adkins. “The experience was invaluable for our younger athletes who came close to moving on in their events.”

The relay team, which consists of Cameron Tillman, Traey Clark, Matthew Tillman, and Kyle Edmo, finished the 4x100-meter relay, in which each runner covers 100 meters, with a time of 47.86 seconds. “Our relay team came close to PR time and had flawless handoffs,” Adkins said.

Clark also competed in the 100-meter dash, where he finished with a time of 12.44 seconds, and the 200, which he finished in 25.26 seconds.

Cameron Tillman also competed in the pole vault event, clearing a height of 8 feet, 6 inches.

Keianna Vera competed in the javelin, where she threw for a distance of 92 feet, 8 inches.
