A couple of seniors led the second-place Logan County Cougars in the boys division and the third place Russellville Lady Panthers in the Muhlenberg County All-Comers Track Meet April 20, but several youngsters helped the cause.
Six schools competed in each gender, including powerhouses Fort Campbell and Trigg County.
For Russellville, Chiquita Rose won both hurdles events and helped a relay team place third. The Cougars' Tim Carpenter won the discus, placed fifth in the shot, and helped two relay teams place.
Freshman Davonna Sydnor got a fourth for the RHS girls and sixth grader Cassie Clayton helped the 800-meter relay team place fourth. (Russellville coaches do not put on the entry sheet the names of all members of relay teams in regular season meets.) Getting thirds for RHS were Nikki Rose and Amber Sydnor while Davonna Sydnor added a fourth and Rebecca Orndorff a sixth.
For the Cougars, freshman Sye Head had two thirds in distance events and helped the 3200-meter relay team place second. Joining him on that second place team were fellow freshmen Colton Spencer and Noah Thomas. Seventh grader Cory Ford and freshmen Dylan Cole, Austin Rouse, and Korey and Kyle Jaynes all ran on fifth place relay teams. Avery Collier picked up a second while Barrett Rogers had a third and a fourth and Jordan Chick a fourth for Coach Greg Howard's team.
Picking up a first for the fourth-place Panthers was junior high jumper Victor Hampton, who also ran on a third place relay team and a sixth place foursome. Travez Hampton ran on two first place relay teams. Isaiah Ramsey ran second in the 400 while Quinlyn Bell had a third and a sixth. Jordan Yancey, Davonta Bryant and Antonio Todd all recorded fourths.
Sophomore Jessica Anderson led the Lady Cougars with a first in the discus and a third in the shot put. Junior Markita Pheal added a fourth.
