For the 2nd straight weekend the OHTF Golden Eagles fought hard but ultimately came painfully short of a team championship. Last week it was 1.5 points from a Grant 4 title and Friday at Madison Grant it was 2.5 points away from their 16th Central Indiana Conference title in the last 19 seasons. Eastbrook was strong all night and won the event with 142 points. The Golden Eagles finished with 139.5 just ahead of Grant 4 Champion Mississinewa who finished with 135. The 2nd place finish for the Golden Eagles marked the 23rd straight season the men have finished in the top 2 at the conference meet. Senior Corban Tippey was the lone multi-event winner on the night for the Golden Eagles as he individually won the 3200 Meter Run. Tippey also anchored the winning 4x800 Meter Relay. The relay consisted of Tippey, classmate Caden Myers, Junior Wyatt Hart, and Sophomore Christian Smiley. The Golden Eagle foursome would score solid points all night combining to score 54 points in the endurance events with Tippey and Hart adding a 2nd and 3rd in the 1600 Meter Run and Myers and Smiley doing the same in the 800 Meter Run. Junior Jalen Scott broke the Conference Meet Record in the 100 Meter Dash clocking a impressive time in cold wet conditions of 10.78. Scott added a runner up finish in the 4x100 Meter Relay. He was joined on the relay by classmates Dylan Archer and Cayden Jones along with Freshman Tayt Bowlin. Archer added points in the 100 with a 6th and as part of the 4th place 4x400 Meter Relay along with Myers, Senior Marc Caritos, and Junior Luke Elzinga.
