JOHNNY BURRELL, MELISSA BAKER,
James River
Burrell, a junior, won the shot put (48 feet, 51/2 inches) and the discus (138-8) in the Augusta County Invitational track. Both performances qualify him for the Group A state meet next month at Charlottesville and would have been good enough to place last year. Baker, a sophomore, won the 100-meter dash (12.6 seconds to tie a school record) and the 300-meter hurdles (50.1) while placing second in the 100-meter hurdles (17.4). All her marks were personal bests and she qualifies for the state in the 100.
\ MISCELLANEOUS
FOSTER RIDPATH, BUD REDDEN,
Radford
It was a double no-hit day for two Radford pitchers. While Foster Ridpath chucked one for the varsity in an 19-0 victory at Auburn, Bud Redden did the same at home against Auburn in an 11-0 junior-varsity game. Ridpath struck out nine, walked two and hit one in the five-inning game. Redden was just a little better. He struck out 11 and walked one in five innings as he issued a free pass with two outs in the final inning to lose a perfect game.
