This weekend a select number of Annandale track athletes competed in the Virginia state championships in Newport News.

Junior Emily Koppelman came in second in the shot put and fifth in the discus. Her mark for shot put set an AHS school record.

Senior Daniel Ejigu finished thirteenth overall for the 800 meter run and twenty-third for the 400 meter dash.

The boys 4X800 meter relay composed of Ejigu, junior Scott Plunkett, and sophomores Daniel Blasser and Michael Ejigu finished in thirteenth place overall. This relay team holds the school record and has placed well in numerous meets throughout the year.

“I’m really happy about how well our team did at states. We all worked really hard to make it and I feel like we did pretty well,” said Daniel Ejigu.
