The Lady Pirates traveled to Nashville for the Brown County Talon Relays Saturday morning and came away with a Runner Up finish only 3 points behind the Champion Columbus North Bulldogs. The Greensburg Girls placed in 16 of the 17 contested events they competed in with many top performances. The only event the ladies did not score in was the shuttle hurdle relay in which they did not have an entry.
Ashlynn Meyer defended her 2016 individual 100 Hurdle title without a single competitor coming close to her stride. Other Champions included Lily Grimes (111′ PR) and Erin Browning (109’1.5) with a combined 220’1.5″ discus throw and Rylie Smith (14’6) and Jaylin Hampton (14’1) adding up to a 28’7″ long jump.
