For Rockcastle's girls team, one girl, Michaela Hunter scored three firsts and a second. Yes, that's 38 points by one girl of Rockcastle's total of 76 points. Now, who knows how some of the other girls would have fared on those jumping events as only one girl per event per team is allowed and Rockcastle has some other very talented athletes as well, but, I thought that her performance was pretty incredible. She placed first in all of the jumps which included the long jump, high jump and triple jump and she got off to a bad start in the 55 meter dash and was gaining on the leader of that race when she placed second. With another ten meters, she would have won that one as well. Michaela also plays basketball, but with Rockcastle's early exit from the playoffs, she was of great value to Coach Brummet on this day.
Ben Lake of Rockcastle was a one boy team finishing third at shotput and garnering the six points.
Congratulations to all of the Rockcastle kids and especially the girls. Both girls teams, middle school and high school won their respective championships in Middle School and High School at Mason Dixon.
