The Harlan County boys placed second and the girls were fourth on Friday in an all-comers meet at Williamsburg.

“Proud of our kids tonight. Again, another huge meet in terms of field size and talent, which will serve us well in prepping for the regional meet,” Harlan County coach Ryan Vitatoe said. “Coming out of here with so many PRs and top five finishes says a lot about how hard they competed.”

Taytum Griffin, Emilee Eldridge, Aliyah Deleon and Ella Karst finished second overall in the 4 x 100 meter relay to lead the Lady Bears.

“The girls were very solid tonight. We had some great finishes, and I felt like they competed hard,” Vitatoe said. “We have to keep our eyes forward toward the end goal, but there was a lot of bright spots in this meet. A top four finish in this field of teams shows how hard they competed.

“We are seeing multiple PRs across both teams. As a coach, I couldn’t be happier. These kids deserve to see improvement from their hard work. There’s no easy days in this program and in the region we compete in. We train to compete every day, and I’m proud of where we are. We definitely have work to do, but the ceiling for both of these teams are high. We have to stay positive, focused, and engaged.”

HC will return to action Tuesday for an all-comers meet at North Laurel and will be at home Friday.
