Texas High Boys + Pine Tree Girls Capture District 14-4A Track and Field Championships

LONGVIEW -- The Texas High Tigers put forth a dominant display Thursday night to claim the District 14-4A boys track and field championships at Pine Tree's Pirate Stadium.

Texas High finished with 201 points, which was 53 more than district runner-up Hallsville.

The Tigers, buoyed by their performances in the individual sprints and sprint relays, qualified for the Class 4A Region II meet April 25-26 at UT-Arlington's Maverick Stadium in 12 events.

Texas High swept the relays. The foursome of Jacorian Walker, Treveon Walker, Travonne Monk and Kevin Harris took first in the 4x100 and 4x200, while the team of Caleb Peavy, Kevin Cross, Jordan Haley and Keilon Bunn won the 4x400.

Harris won the 200 meter dash with a time 21.13, edging out the 100-meter winner K.D. Cannon of Mount Pleasant, who claimed the gold with a time of 10.72 seconds. Monk finished second to Cannon in the 100 to qualify for regionals, while Haley and Bunn went first and second in the 400 meter dash.

Texas High also placed first and second in the 300 meter hurdles with Corey Jones grabbing the gold and teammate Jaylen Rhone coming in second.

Grant Jarvis was also a big winner for Texas High, taking first place in both the 1600 and 3200 meter run. Peavy claimed gold in the 800 meter run, Demarquon Bailey won the discus and Jones qualified for the regional meet by placing second in the high jump.

The Pine Tree girls took advantage of the familiar surroundings to claim the girls championship, finishing with 145.5 points. Texas High took second with 121 total points.

The Lady Pirates qualified for regionals in 10 events, taking three first-place finishes -- Brittany Conway in the pole vault, Christina Nelson in the 3200 meter run and Cierra Murphy in the 100 meter dash.

Alyssa Jones and Gavyn Diviney finished second in the triple jump and discus, respectively. The 4x100 relay team of Tieyanna Thurmond, Kiara Butler, Breanna Ingram and Murphy, and the 4x200 foursome of Thurmond, Destiny Lewis, Ingram and Murphy were second-place finishers.
