By Dave Conard Sports Editor, CoatesvilleTimes.com
COATESVILLE—It’s always great running a track meet in front of your home fans, Coatesville took fan support to a new level as the Red Raiders as a group set records, won event and will be sending a busload of athletes to the states.
When the PIAA state championships get underway on Friday at Shippensburg University, Coatesville will be represented in 13 events.
On Saturday, the ladies finished second overall to Pennridge with the boys laying claim to eighth place overall in the PIAA District One team standings.
Aaron Willet, who won the semi finals in the 110-meter hurdles, claimed third overall in the finals and will be leaping his way into the fray with the keystone’s best hurdlers, as he competes in both the 110 and 300 high hurdles.
Kevin Smith II with a time of 21.68 snagged a bronze medal at districts and will battle in the 200-meter dash in Friday’s prelims at the state level.
Coatesville’s boy’s and girl’s 4 x 400-meter relay teams (fifth and first respectively in district one) will both take to the track to compete as well in the 4 x 400, with the number one ranked 4 x 100-meter relay in district one, the Red Raiders girls team will lead the way.
“It’s definitely going to be great to have a bunch of us going to states,” said Kenya Woodall. “It’s important that we support each other, I am looking forward to running the 400 there, most of the best girls are right here in the district, so it really helps get ready.”
