About this Article

Savannah Carson and Maya Neal were a formidable force Friday night in Batavia. At the Upstate Eight Conference girls indoor track and field championship, Neuqua Valley was nursing a 1-point lead over St. Charles East heading into the 200-meter dash. Carson, the Neuqua Valley defending state champion in the long jump, had already established a new league record in the event by eclipsing 19 feet.
