Buffalo leaps to title at Scott City
ARAPAHOE, Neb. Cambridge Trojan athletes scored nearly 200 combined points, but the Irish of North Platte St. Pats took both team titles from Wednesdays annual Jim Mather Invitational.
Ironically, the Irish won both by exactly five points: 103-98 over Cambridges girls and 101-96 vs. Trojan boys.
Sophomore Korynn Clason won two individual titles (200 meters, triple jump) to lead the Trojan female athletes.
Addie Sides also won the discus and Cali Gunderson captured a 400-meter victory.
Zack Sickels, Taten Benson and Tyler Borland all finished first for the Cambridge boys.
Arapahoe pulled into third during the boys title chase thanks largely to two relay titles.
The Southern Valley girls reached Wednesdays top five as sophomore Lauryn Samuelson hurled her way to another championship.
