Only taking a boys’ team Friday to the regional track meet in Hillsboro, the Peabody-Burns track team could not qualify any athletes for the state meet.
Coach Brian Lightner said the competition in the events the team competed in were ultimately too tough for anyone to crack the top four.
Junior Edmondson came closest, placing fifth in the 400-meter dash. He set a personal record at 56.16 seconds. He also placed sixth in the 200-meter dash.
Andrew Wedel also set a personal record, improving nine inches in the shot put at 41 feet, 10¼ inches.
