Adelaide Elden (Eastside) and Katy Niles (Woodlan) were the stars of the show at Saturday’s girls-only Turtletown Classic in Churubusco in the small-school division.
Elden won the 200 and the 300 Hurdles and was just an inch short of winning the high jump to lead the Eastside Blazers. Niles was second (5:32) in the 1600 and easily won the 3200 for the Warriors.
Jazlyn Brown and Braelyn Radecki had outstanding days for the Bellmont Braves. See more details below:
