Although it was a stormy day in Rome, Georgia, it didn’t stop the show at the GHSA Stat Track & Field Championship preliminaries.
In the 100m race Jabari Overton from Woodstock High School posted a winning time of 10:48. Kibren Moore from Pebblebrook High School claimed the runner up spot at 10:52, and Play Book athlete Ja’Leak Perry from McEachern claimed 3rd qualifying time going 10:65.
Ja’Leak says he feels like he has a very good chance of winning the race. “I know if I can get out the blocks like I normally do and dominate all the way thru the finish I’ll be fine. I’m aiming for Sub 10.5”
The state finals are coming up and we’ll see where these three runners, along with five other qualifiers.
