Norton Boys Start Strong With 99-37 Win Over the Holliston Panthers; Camden Cleathero Soars to a 6' 4" Jump in the High Jump Breaking a 26 Year Old Record!

Congrats to the Norton High boys Spring track team, who after 5 long weeks of training and rainouts, were able to complete their first duel meet of the season!  The boys defeated the Holliston Panthers 99-37 and move to 1-0 on the season. The Lancers were lead by two senior captains in Justin Ireland and Camden Cleathero, both of whom grabbed 11 points each for the team.  Both Camden and Justin boasted TVL bests this season.  Justin won both the 100 meters (11.2) and the 200 meters (23.2), while Camden won the 110 high hurdles in 15.5 and jumped a gigantic leap of 6 feet 4 inches (only 1 inch off his personal lifetime best) in the high jump for the victory there.  Camden broke a 26 year old school record (previously held by Vern Wyatt from 1990 of 6' 3")!
