CULLMAN, Ala. – This weekend was packed full of local action at both the 4A-7A State Track Meet in Gulf Shores and at the 1A-3A State Track Meet in Cullman. One local standout even made history. Vinemont’s Ethan Lemons dominated both the 3A 1600 and 3200-Meter Runs to earn a pair of gold medals and set a pair of new state records in the process. Lemons posted a time of 4:15.80 in the 1600, outpacing the next finisher by nearly 20 seconds and recorded a 9:22.62 in the 3200, winning by over 30 seconds. His third gold medal of the weekend came in the 800-Meter where he finished with a time of 2:00.25.

Lemons wasn’t the only local athlete to bring home gold. In Gulf Shores, Cullman’s Patrick Adcock placed first in the 6A Discus Throw with a mark of 146-00 and Good Hope’ Cadence Watson earned gold in the 4A High Jump at 4-10.00.

At Oliver Woodard Stadium in Cullman, Cold Springs’ Ethan Edgeworth blew past the field in the 2A 1600-Meter with a time of 4:31.32 and fellow Eagle Hunter Calvert claimed gold in the Pole Vault after posting a 12-00.00. St. Bernard’s Claudia Fallin celebrated her birthday with a first-place finish in the 2A Discus Throw at 106-08 and Nic Fallin collected another gold medal for the Saints with a mark of 41-08.25 in the 2A Triple Jump.

“I woke up this morning and said, it’s a good day to throw Discus. It’s my birthday!” Fallin said after receiving her gold medal, “It’s something I’ve been working toward for a long time. It’s a real blessing.”

Saints Coach William Calvert was excited to see Claudia go out on such a high note and was proud of the way his young squad performed over the weekend.

“We have a young team and we’re very grateful to have qualified 10, five boys and five girls, to be at the state meet and fortunately they did a fantastic job over the weekend. All of them had personal records for the most part and many of them scored,” Calvert said. “Of course, we had a couple state champions, a brother and sister combination, Claudia in the Discus on her birthday and her brother, Nic, in the Triple Jump so it was a great day for that combination there. Abbi McBride was another medalist in the 300-Meter Hurdles so all in all it was a great meet for our young team, other than our one senior Claudia. It was a great way to send her out and it was great encouragement for the rest of the team.”

As a team, the Cold Springs Eagles (64.5) finished second in the 2A Boys division, just seven points behind Lafayette.
