(TIFFIN) - Senior Abbey Gambrell advanced to the Regional Finals on Friday in the 300 hurdles. Gambrell was the only Pirate to advance out of Wednesday’s meet.
Kaleb Jefferson continued to best his own record in the discus Wednesday, throwing a career best 146-10. The toss was good for sixth place overall. The senior will be back in action Friday as he competes in the high jump. Jefferson made the State Meet in that event last season.
There's an interesting story line in this photo. It involves action figures, play characters and lots of imagination. The Icon caught this scene during playtime at the pre-kindergarten class at Bluffton Child Development Center.
