Junior Amber Evans took first in the triple and long jump for the girls.

“I’m really pleased with the whole team,” Victor said.

Naomi Swartbaugh and Jake Hogg again both took home multiple first place finishes for the Eagles, and Ethan Benedict won the 100.

The Eagles now turn their attention to the Warren County Track Meet on Thursday.
