Adams Central, Bellmont and Heritage all competed in Friday’s boys-only track and field event, mixing in most of the traditional events with a future extra relays for a night of fun and competition. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Adams Central’s Braylen Cowans led the local contingent of athletes at Friday’s Heritage Relays by winning the discus with a new PR of 148-06. The distance was the longest of any local athlete not named Charlie Riddle in the last few years and just a few feet short of Trenton Hoffman’s throw back in 2023 at the State Finals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cowans’ previous career best had just been set against Bellmont at 145-09.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the highlights on the night for Heritage was Corban Roth, who took fifth in the 1600 with a season and career best. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Roth was the only runner in Z-Land to crack five minutes in the 1600, but Adams Central freshman Mason Manley joined him, going 4:50.88 and taking tenth place overall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
