Curry?s sights set on ?state? – Record jump lands Lady Pioneer in sectionals

The WCHS track teams have seen both highs and lows this year as the season came to an end on Thursday. But for one Lady Pioneer track member the race goes on.

Keisha Curry will be representing the WCHS in the sectional finals this week after placing fourth in the Subsection long jump on Thursday.

In the process of making the sectional finals, Curray set a school record, with a jump of 15 feet and 11 inches. She broke the record, which was set a dozen years ago, by a full seven inches.

Curry who has been a member of the WCHS track team since her freshman year, has also run in the 4×100 and 4×200 relays and the 100-meter dash for the past four years.

The sectional finals will be held at Riverdale with 26 schools from middle Tennessee being represented. Individuals that finish in the top four of the sectionals will qualify for the state finals.
