Dimond girls pile up huge Class 4A win

FAIRBANKS — That the Dimond Lynx repeated was no surprise, but their margin of victory sure was.
The Lynx, with four wins and a host of point scorers, tallied 95 points to nearly double their nearest pursuer on Saturday at the Class 4A girls Alaska Track and Field Championships at Lathrop High School.
“We didn’t think we’d win it by this much,” said sophomore Jessica Todd, who claimed the long jump, placed fourth in the 400-meter run and ran the anchor leg of Dimond’s second-place 4x400 relay.
Juneau-Douglas was second with 49 points, followed by Kenai with 47 and Bartlett with 42. Lathrop took eighth and West Valley 14th among 20 scoring teams.
