Girls track
At Charleston: Camryn Driscoll saved her best for last, but it wasn’t quite good enough in Friday’s prelims of the IHSA Class 2A State Track & Field finals.
The Princeton junior turned in a personal record of 59.11 seconds in the 400 meters, finishing 15th overall. She needed a time of 58.45 to advance to Saturday’s finals. Madalyn Marx of Mahomet-Seymour topped the field with a time of 56.86.
“The field was tougher this year, so I was very proud of Camryn getting her personal best against such a tough field. She gave it her best shot,” PHS coach Pat Hodge said.
Driscoll medaled in ninth place a year ago with a slower time.
