Clermont County high school state track and field qualifiers did not fare too well last weekend in the event that took place at Jesse Owens Stadium on the campus of Ohio State University, Columbus.

The best eight placers in each event scored points for their respective school.

Division II

Cat Humphries, a Williamsburg Township resident and a junior at McNicholas High School, placed in three events.

In the 100-meters dash, Humphries, in a spectacular photo finish, finished second to CharAnna Dixon of Columbus Bishop Hartley. Both were clocked at 1.39-seconds. Humphries was second, too, in the 200-meters dash with a time of 25.20. She was the third leg of the 400 relay team that captured third place coming in in 49.60.

Staci Hicks, Goshen senior, also competed in Division II. She completed the 1,600 run in 5:25.7 and this earned her 13th place.
