District 2-1A

The White Deer Bucks and Does made it a clean team sweep during the District 2-1A Track and Field Meet on Wednesday at Bucks Stadium in White Deer.

The Does were able to outlast Claude (128) by posting 178 points to win the team title.

Standout sprinter Faith Jackson and distance runner Makayla Chaney paced the Does on the big day. Jackson, who suffered a scare last week after a fall in a regular season meet, came back strong by qualifying for the area round in four events. Jackson had a leap of 15-feet-8 inches to win a gold in the long jump. In the running portion, Jackson kept up the momentum tallying a time of 13 seconds to win the 100-meter dash and was a part of the Does gold medal winning 800-meter relay (1:57.21). Jackson’s fourth event at area will be in the high jump after clearing 4-4 to get bronze at district.
