May 22nd, 2009 Author: Richard Crawford Filed Under: Sports

The American Division of the Southern Buckeye Conference (SBC) track and field meet was won by Western Brown (WB) with 141.5 points, New Richmond (NR) had 84, Goshen (Gos) 66, Bethel-Tate (BT) 55.5, and Clermont Northeastern (CNE) 4.

Goshen’s Jordan Buchanan and Bethel-Tate’s Autumn Schellenberger were both double winners.

Schellenberger set a SBC record in the pole vault (former record of 9-feet, 4-inches set in 2007) and the New Richmond 1,600 relay relay of Veronica Burnam, Kristin Mikula, Katie Schumacher, and Mikaela Rupp also established a new SBC record (former record of 4-minutes 17.2-seconds set in 2005).

The start of the SBC-A 100-meters final included Jordan Buchanan and Trenae Johnson of Goshen, Katie Schumacher and Kelsey Hensley of New Richmond, Jordan Hanley of Northeastern, and Emily Maines of Bethel-Tate. Buchanan emerged the victor.

The meet was held during an almost constant rain on the New Richmond all-weather facility. Due to lightning the meet took five-and-one-half hours to complete.
