Gillispie cruised to victory in the boys 400 meters with a state-best time for all classifications of 48.70 to win going away and set a new standard at South Medford. The previous record was set by Eric McKenzie (49.68) in 1998. Gillispie also tied for second in the high jump by clearing the 6-foot mark and ran a leg on the winning 4x400 relay team that finished in 3:26 in the non-scoring meet. “He had a great day,” South Medford head coach Tim Rupp said of Gillispie. “He’s a strong athlete and works hard every single day. Our goal today was a school record and he went out and got it.” Tristan Akery joined Gillispie in the long relay with Ty Boser and Andrew Merriman and also placed second in the 800 (1:57.6). South Medford’s Caleb Rayburn finished second in the shot put (48-1½), while Emily Lemons led the Panther girls by winning the 300 hurdles in 46.49 and finishing fourth in the 100 hurdles (16.66). Sara Miles finished second, but tied for the top distance, in the shot put at 35-9. Crater’s Tanner Berklund placed second in the 100 (11.28) and 200 (22.86), while teammate Ryan Davis was third in the shot put (47-2) and Javon Gill third in the discus (147-6).
