Andrews Runner-Up Three Times at State

CHENEY – Dayton High School senior Kaitlyn Andrews was her school's only representative to the state 2B track meet here over the weekend. But she had a stellar meet, snagging three second-place finishes and single-handedly giving Dayton an 8th-place finish in the girls' 2B Division, out of more than 40 teams competing.

Andrews missed the top podium spot in the long jump by one-quarter inch, with a jump of 16 feet, 8 ¾ inches. Andrews' javelin throw of 122 feet, 6 inches, was ten feet shy of the winning throw, but good for second. Andrews also placed second in the 100 meter finals with a time of 13.14 seconds.

In the triple jump, Andrews' distance of 33 feet, 11 inches was good for sixth place, one spot ahead of WP's Emily Adams.
