The Friends' Central girls put down the state's fastest time and the nation's No. 2 time so far this season in the sprint medley relay at the Lavino Relays across state lines in Lawrenceville, New Jersey.
The team of Miracle Price, Inara Shell, Bailie Stovall, and Micah Trusty ran a PA No. 2 and US No. 2 time of 4:11.08 to win the event on the banked track at Lawrenceville Prep. The quartet won in decisive fashion with Price opening up with a big 400 meter leg.
Shell and Garrett ran well on the middle 200 meter legs before giving the baton to Trusty, who is currently PA No. 2 in the girls 800, for the anchor half mile leg.
