Haley Campbell and Hunter Gregg did extremely well in Duo, placing first at an October 26 meet at Rockwood, while Jayce Miller placed second in Drama.
“I feel my kids did very well in the first meet, even though it’s the tough because it’s the first one,” said speech team coach Mrs. Kathy Taylor.
For the second meet in Somerset, on November 9, things turned out just as well. Noah Patton and Caedon Poe were excellent in Duo, placing first. Sophia Nelson and Jayce Miller placed second in Duo, as well.
The speech team has another big meet approaching on November 22.
“I feel my kids are well prepared for the last meet on November 22, but it will be very tough because the third meet is the hardest,” said Mrs. Taylor.
