Trotwood-Madison sets 1,600 relay record third straight year, but loses team title to Warren Harding
COLUMBUS — Trotwood-Madison did it again.
For the third straight year, the Rams finished the Division I state track and field meet by setting an all-time, all-division record in the 1,600-meter relay.
The foursome of Julius Ruby, Jordon Paschal, Renon Lorenz and William Henry turned in a 3:13.05. That was slightly better than the 3:13.32 that Paschal, Henry, Ruby and Michael Jordan ran in 2009.
T-M also set the record in 2008.
Even better, Trotwood defeated relay runner-up Cleveland Glenville in the race. The only problem was the Rams couldn’t beat Warren Harding.
Boosted by just as much quality speed, Harding clinched the meet by placing 1-4 in the 200 meters. That gave Harding a 47-34 lead over T-M with only the meet-ending 1,600 relay left.
Harding is out of runners, but the Rams can move no closer than 10 more points with the relay win. Glenville, also in the 1,600 relay, is stuck in third with 24 points.
Trotwood-Madison’s William Henry won the 400 (47.50) after placing second in the 100 (10.80). The only problem with that is 100 winner DeAver Williamson is from Harding.
Henry also added a second in the 200 (21.47), but once again was nosed out by Harding’s Williamson (21.46).
• Lebanon delivered on what it had been doing all season, winning the Division I 400-meter relay at the 103rd state track and field meet on Saturday, June 5, at OSU’s Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium.
The foursome of Steven Gabbard, Trey bonny, Luke Norris and Chase Cochran overcame a couple of flawed handoffs to run down runner-up Columbus Northland and mighty Cleveland Glenville in 42.13. And that wasn’t close to their prelim effort of 41.77.
• Wayne senior Demoye Bogle opened the delayed final meet of the day by winning the 110 high hurdles (14.15). Placing second was GWOC Central rival Alex Gaskins of Springfield (14.24).
Bogle added a second in the 300 hurdles when leader Luke Norris of Lebanon stumbled over the last hurdle and placed third.
• Centerville’s Michael Bennett was third in the shot put (59-10.75), but fouled three times and slipped to sixth in the discus (172-8).

What was with Trotwood not showing up on the podium to get their awards? Does it go back to that fight at Roosevelt when they and Glenville got into it big time??
