PREP TRACK: Elizabethtown's...

LOUISVILLE — Having grown used to watching James Washington come from behind to win a few times before, Jeff McNeil wasn’t surprised when the Elizabethtown junior did it again during Friday night’s Class 2-A KHSAA State Track & Field Championships.

Heading into the last two hurdles in the 110-meter race, Washington was just behind Shelby County senior Michael Barry. But like he has before, Washington found a little something extra to guide him to the gold medal at the University of Louisville’s Owsley Frazier Cardinal Park.

Hope everyone is having a great day, thinking positively and Thanking God for the many blessings we many times overlook, in the hurry, hurry world we are living in. When I go into the grocery, I can’t move too quickly anymore, but when I see the younger ladies, I see them practically running with their carts to get the items needed as quickly as possible.
