Brown, Wilson Finish 2nd, 6th in Triple Jump; Parman 4th in Discus

Going in to the last jump of the competition, it appeared that Jasmine Brown would be the State Champion in the Triple Jump with a jump of 35' 9.75". But Chloe Tillman of BGA saved her best for last, jumping 36' 4" on the very last jump of the competition. Tillman had scratched on her first 2 of 4 jumps. Brown slipped to second place, and teammate Julianne Wilson finished 6th for the Bruisers with a jump of 34' 2".

In the discus, Heather Parman had a sub-par day by her standards, but still placed 4th with a long throw of 98'. Parman had qualified with a throw of 110'.

Next up for the Track & Field team is the Shot Put, Pole Vault and Long Jump at 11:00, followed by the High Jump at 12:30
