Fort Mill’s Mia Williams wins 100 meters, adds triple jump title at SCTCCCA Bob Jenkins Coaches Classic
The South Carolina Track and Cross Country Coaches Association held its annual Bob Jenkins Coaches Classic Elite Meet on Thursday, April 17, at Whale Branch Early College High School in Seabrook, bringing together the top high school track and field athletes from across the state in every division for one of the most competitive one-day meets on the South Carolina prep calendar.
Athletes earned their spots at the Classic by qualifying at one of six regional meets held on March 21, meaning every competitor on the track and in the field represented the best their region had to offer.
From the York and Lancaster County area, Fort Mill and York each placed athletes on the final results sheet, with Fort Mill senior Mia Williams turning in the day’s most eye-catching individual performance.
