Gahanna Lincoln's Madison Martinez shown competing during the 2017 outdoor season.
One of the best races of the 2018 Ohio outdoor campaign went down last night at the Division 1 Region 3 meet in Pickerington. The girls 4x800 was quite a contest, as the top four squads recorded times that place themselves inside the country's top ten rankings.
Gahanna Lincoln secured the relay win with their ultra impressive 9:01.23 effort. Not far behind was the runner-up team from Hilliard Davidson (9:01.79) and the third place finishers out of Granville (9:02.77). Rounding out the top four was Westerville Central in 9:06.52.
