(Sat Jan 7, 2023)  The John Paul Indoor Track Team traveled to Newport News, VA to compete at the CNU High School Showcase meet on the campus of Christopher Newport University. Several team members ran personal and season best performances at this meet.  Two athletes, Freshman Alexander Everson in 500m and Junior Matthew Elliott in the 3200m achieved VISAA state qualifying times.  The highlight of the meet for JP came in the 3200m races.  Senior Sarah Dake’s strong finish over the last 5 laps in the girls race earned her a third place finish.  In the boys 3200m race, Junior James Bertram had a tremendous kick over the last three laps to win the race.  This was James’ second victory in the last two times running this race.  Congratulations on all the fine performances by the JP Indoor track team this past weekend.  The team will travel to Woodberry Forest School on Friday January 13 to complete in the Woodberry Forest mini meet.
