This past Saturday, BHS junior Jenna Young traveled to the Spire Sports Complex in Geneva, Ohio, to participate in the OATCCC State High School Indoor Track Meet for the Division II and III high jump competition.
This entire Winter, Young balanced varsity basketball and indoor track and proved that both can be accomplished well, simultaneously. In basketball, she played an integral role in her team’s 15-8 season. For indoor track, she did very well and completed a 5’4” jump to place third in the state. Her jump of 5’4” was her personal best for indoor track.
Last Spring as a sophomore, Young placed second (out of 24 girls) in the outdoor high jumping, OHSAA track meet.
Success has been frequent for Young, but it is because of her hard work and internal drive for individual improvement. She never settles for mediocrity and truly believes that her best days are still ahead.
Hurricane Nation would like to congratulate Jenna on her basketball and indoor track successes and wish her nothing but the best for the upcoming, Spring track season.
As the Spring sports seasons approach, stay tuned as we will do our preseason previews for baseball and track.
