T.A. Dugger seventh grader Vella Nave not only won the two-mile Middle 9 Conference Championship in the conference meet held at Domtar Park in Kingsport, but she broke a record in the process.
Nave covered the course in a time of 12:23.80 breaking the Domitar Park course record and moved the athletic runner to the #1 spot for all Tennessee middle schools currently.
It is still early in the young season, but the race shows the rest of the state what they are up against in Northeast Tennessee.
T.A. Dugger also had two other top 20 finishers in the girls’ race as Madeline Isaacs completed the race in 13th place and Jane Hackett finished in 17th place.
With the finish by the girls’ team, the Jr. Lady Cyclones claimed a fourth-place finish in the meet.
Although the boys didn’t have a top 20 finisher, they did finish seventh overall in the team score. Donnie Horan crossed the finish line in 36th place and Louis Trivette claimed 37th place for the Jr. Cyclones.
Trystyn Eggers crossed in 41st place for TAD.
