Stivers’ Armani Richardson anchors relay to win

Canceled meets and poor baton handoffs have been too frequent for the Stivers High School girls track and field team. That’s why a win in the 4x100-meter relay (50.01) was especially pleasing during last week’s Edwin C. Moses/Dayton Relays at Welcome Stadium.

“We’re working on exchanges because the first couple of meets we didn’t do so good and the outcome showed,” Stivers senior anchor Armani Richardson said.

Richardson has been accepted to Tennessee State University at Nashville and hopes to run for the famed Lady Tigerbelles.

“I’m a Lady Tiger now so I’m just trying to continue my Lady Tiger path,” she said, laughing.

Centerville overwhelmed runner-up Wayne 94-62 to win the boys championship for the sixth straight season. Centerville also beat second-place Troy 84-61 to win its fourth straight girls title.
