JACKSONVILLE – Bishop Moore captured the first track and field state championship in school history on Saturday when its talent-ladened boys team won the Class 2A team title at the University of North Florida.
Hornets junior Chandler “C.J.” Smith led the way with victories worth 10 points in the 100- and 200-meter dashes. Marc Morrison, a senior, added a victory in the long jump and senior pole vaulter Justin Kern took second in his specialty to provide the clinching points.
Bishop Moore outscored Satellite 64 points to 59 after finishing second to the Scorpions in FHSAA region competition a week ago.
