Maddy Jones powers way into regional

ANDOVER — Southern senior Maddy Jones and United sophomore Taylor Simmons are aiming for more than a district championship.

Both won events at the Pymatuning Valley Division IV district track and field meet Wednesday.

Jones — who qualified for state in the shot put and discus last year and in the discus as a freshman — won the district shot put title with a toss of 37-feet-1 on her first attempt.

Simmons won the high jump by clearing 5-foot-1. She made her first five attempts before missing once at 5-0.

Simmons lost a jump-off for a state berth last year.

She will get another chance next week as the top four in each advance to the Austintown Fitch regional.

Columbiana advanced both 3200-meter relay teams.

The Clippers’ girls team of Sidney Schlueter, Sydney Spaite, Maddie Jackson and Kaitlin Benner was second (10:37.50) and the boys team of Jayce Zelonish, Peyton Boggs, Eric Hepner and Nolan Clark was third (9:07.73).

The United boys 3200 relay team of Cannon Casto, Cole Rininger, Lukas Hamilton and Josh Hawkins was second (8:56.99).

The Crestview girls 3200 relay team of Bridget Bortchardt, Adri Hodge, Piper Harvey and Savannah Neville was fourth (11:06.61).

The district meet concludes Friday with the remaining field events at 4:30 p.m. and the running finals at 6 p.m.
