The Norwell girls, with the help of a sweep from Jada Dale in the sprints, took a closely-contested head-to-head track meet from the Bellmont Braves and their male counterparts and classmates did the same to spoil senior night for the Bellmont program. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mary Bleke won the shot put with her career best and the longest throw of any Adams County athlete this season. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The meet also featured a continued tribute to the late Dave Hakes, who coached the Bellmont boys for many years. He passed away last year after a battle with cancer. Bellmont athletes competed with the words “Do It For Dave” written in marker on their arms or thighs (see gallery below)<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
