Gianna Rao (Ponaganset, North Scituate, RI) easily won the women’s competition, but fell just short of the state meet record she set last year. A strong first round attempt was enough to secure the win for the national leader, with all of her legal attempts farther than the competition. Annika Kelly (Barrington, RI) added more than a foot to her best to take second and Joangely Mata (Mt. Pleasant, Providence, RI) was just a quarter inch off of her best in third.
Jacob Furland (Classical, Providence, RI) timed his peak perfectly in the boy’s competition. The junior added nearly two feet to his best in the second round to win by just three inches over state leader Garrett Doyle (Lincoln, RI).
