The talented junior jumper took home two gold medals and set two new meet records at last weekend’s Suburban North Conference meet at McCluer.
Ray won the high jump and triple jump with two excellent individual efforts. She won the high jump by clearing 5 feet 5 inches. She came back to win the triple jump by bounding 37 feet 9 inches.
It was the second consecutive Suburban North title for Ray in the triple jump. She won the event as a sophomore with a jump of 37-6.
Ray also earned All-State honors as a sophomore in the high jump where she finished sixth at the Class 4 state championships in Jefferson City. Ray was also a state qualifier as a member of the Comets’ 4×400-meter relay team. She will be a state contender in both events this season.
Ray will compete in this weekend’s Class 4, District 5 meet at McCluer.
