Khloey Sperry shattered the HDC Conference record in the High Jump and the school record in the 400 in track action Wednesday and Thursday while the boys won the HDC Title.
The girls narrowly missed joining the boys on the boards as they were edged out by Newtown-Harris. Newtown Harris had 152 and Gilman City had 136. There was little competition as East Harrison had 69, Mercer 50, Winston 40, North Daviess 26, and Tri-County 10.
Khloey Sperry showed her versatility as an athlete as she ran in the 100, 200, and 400 Wednesday after running in the 800 as part of the 4x800 relay this year.
