The Scene

This year the national high school outdoor meet had a new sponsor, a new name, and a new home. It was the Nike Outdoor Nationals or NON at the Irvin Belk Track at the North Carolina A & T University, Greensboro. The new quarters brought smiles to athletes, parents and fans, as they stretched out on the bleachers or throws areas and were thankful for the clean and many comfort stations and refreshment stands.

There was excitement everywhere as athletes put on a good show, setting new records and personal best marks in several events. Those great wins got the top six winners new shoes from Nike. Wow what a hit! They Loveddddd those shoes. And, the first place rings were a big hit.

It was fun, fun, fun and a good show for all.
