2017 Greensburg Crossbones Relay Carnival
“The team stepped up and competed well and were a pure joy to watch today. I watched guys step in and fill big roles today, including an outstanding relay leg from Devin Imel. Our young guys got a taste of high school competition and our veterans showed that hard work pays off in a big way (boys 4×800 squad). We will get tested twice this next week as we travel to South Dearborn to face the hosts Knights and Jennings County and on Friday when we travel to Decatur Central and meet teams like DC, Warren Central, Greenfield-Central and Brownsburg.” Pirates Coach Mike Myers.
