Randolph-Henry CC Runners Compete Against Best in State

CHARLOTTESVILLE – Having qualified for the Region 2A East meet, a select group of Runnin’ Statesmen travelled to Panorama Farms in Charlottesville to compete against some of the best runners in the state. John Walker, Travis Adams, Jacob Barker, Billy French, Chris Nichols, Michael Nichols, and Nasheim Pettus represented R-H as a team and Lindy Newcomb competed individually.

Every runner had great races and felt satisfied after competing on a warm day and challenging course. Nasheim Pettus lead the boy’s team to an 11th place finish (out of 16 teams) with a 28th place finish. This effort was good enough to qualify him for the VHSL Championships at Great Meadows in The Plains.

Coaches and team members offered congratulations to Nasheim on a great accomplishment and good luck to him as he competes in the final race of this season.
