Hanover-Horton Details
Friday the Comets were at East Jackson for their Dome Classic Invite. Girls ended the night in 10th place and boys brought home the Runner Up Plaque.

Because of the tough competition, boys had 27 Personal Records and 4 Season Records. Girls had 14 Personal Records and 5 Season Records.

Shout out to Sophie Reynolds for his PR in the 400m (59.63) as that now toughens her #2 rank in the All-Time Hall of Fame at Hanover-Horton.

Go Comets!
