At the Greene County track meet on Friday night, CAM's Ada Hansen put herself in position to qualify for the prestigious Drake Relays in four different events. Hansen won the 100 Hurdles and 400 Hurdles, while also anchoring CAM's winning Sprint Medley Relay team and placing second in the 4x100 Relay. Other top performers included Ruthie Rich of CAM winning the High Jump, and Panorama's Kylie Rochholz sweeping the 1500m and 3000m runs.
