DES MOINES – Another record! And fifth place in the state finals!
Montezuma’s record-settling hurdle shuttle relay team got better again and placed fifth at the Class 1A state finals race at Drake Stadium.
Their time was 1:03.00, another new school record for the quartet of Luke Brennan, Broox Stockman, Damien Knox and Garrett Watts.
The finals were run in perfect weather on Saturday, May 18.
The Braves earned four team points for their finish. That brought Montezuma’s final team total to six, as Watts had earned two team points for his seventh-place finish in the high jump on Friday.
The Braves entered the final race having posted the fifth-fastest time in Friday’s prelims.
Lenox won the hurdle shuttle in a state record time of 59.72.
