Records broken in season’s first track meet
On April 2, the track team had its first meet of the season. The meet took place at LFA, with competing school Francis Parker and Grant High School.
Senior Dejon Brissett broke the school record in the boys’ triple jump event. He bested the previous school record, which was set by himself by four inches with a jump of 46-03. Brissett won the event as well.
