One participant that continued to impress while at the state meet was freshman Ryanne Meyers. “ Our fresh-man did exceptionally well finishing in fourth place. That was a big accomplishment for her and hopefully we can get her in other events next year,” Sealy track and field coach Ray Dabney said. Meyers also faced a challenge at the regional meet in which she had to clear a height to make herself eligible for the state berth. “ She had already missed it twice, but she came through with an excellent jump, and she ended up with two personal records that day and had to have a jump off for the third space spot,” Dabney continued. “ That was a big accomplishment for her.”
