South’s Poore sets, breaks school record
The Muhlenberg South track and field team competed
in the Logan County all comers meet April 12.
Two new school records were set, as sophomore Aaron
Poore ran a 10:00.74 time in the 3200 meter run as he finished first in
this event and lapped the field on the track, as he set the school record
in this event. Under 10:00 minutes is the standard in which high school
boys try to achieve in the 3200 meter run and Poore being a sophomore
has an excellent chance of running in the range of 9:30 or better over
the rest of his career. Poore ran the first mile in 5:06 and completed
the second mile in an amazinig 4:54 a negative split in running terms.
