On a brilliant blue day Calhoun junior Anna Sampson was a shining
example for the Red Devils as she breezed to victory in the Calhoun
Invitational Tuesday afternoon at the Calhoun County Park.
Sampson covered the 3.2-mile course in 25:27 to beat the second place
finisher by more than a minute.
On the high school boys side Calhoun's Josh Parsons was fourth with a

The most dominating performance probably took place in the middle
school girls run when Makayla Shamblin of Elkview had a blistering
time of 11:42 over the two-mile course to beat the second place
finisher by almost two minutes.
