White Falcons, Tornadoes compete in N-Y meet

NELSONVILLE, Ohio — The Wahama White Falcons and Southern Tornadoes were among the seven schools, with Wahama’s Wesley Jones stealing some of the show, as part of Tuesday’s track and field meet at Nelsonville-York High School. 

Fairfield Union and Fairfield Christian dominated the team points, while Wahama’s boys were fourth with 84. 

Southern’s boys were seventh with 52 points, while the Lady Tornadoes tallied 32 and the Lady White Falcons 20. 

The meet was held at Nelsonville-York High School’s historic Boston Field. 

For the boys, the senior Jones swept the sprint events (100m and 200m dashes), running the 100m in 11.43 seconds — and the 200m in 23 ticks flat. 

Jones was also part of the winning Wahama sprint relay squads (4x200m and 4x100m relays). 

Jones joined first leg Brady Bumgarner, second leg Nolan Pierce and anchor leg Austin Juelfs to run 1:37 in the 4x200m — and 46.27 in the 4x100m.

Individually, the senior Juelfs was third in the long jump with a leap of 18-feet, six and one-quarter inches.
