AHS boys win region crown

Jordan Hill won two events, placed in two others and ran the anchor leg of Albemarle’s winning 4x400-meter relay team as the Patriots claimed the Northwest Region boys track title at UVa’s Lannigan Field on Friday.

Hill won the 100-meter dash and the high jump and placed third in the long jump and fourth in the triple jump. He teamed with Zach Vrhovac, Garrett Bradley and Anthony Kostelac to win the 4x4.

Albemarle took three of the top four spots in the boys 800 as Kostelac set a new school record with a time of 1:54.98. Vrhovac was third and Bradley was fourth as the Patriots outpaced second-place Mountain View by three points.

Liz Barclay won the mile for the Albemarle girls.
