Dadeville finishes stellar season at state

Arielle Russell helped lead the Lady Tigers at state with a second place finish in the long jump.

A season of excellent track and field for Dadeville High School concluded last week at the 3A state championship in Cullman. The Tigers left the meet with a seventh place team finish in boys and a ninth place team finish in girls. 

Led by excellent showings by both sets of relay teams and some more strong jumping by senior Javerious Askew, the Tigers put together about as good of a performance as they could have hoped.
