JACKSONVILLE — The Evans High School girls track team was the area’s best all season, but the Trojans saved their best for the big stage.
The Trojans scored two national level relay victories and finished third in the team standings at Saturday night’s Class 4A state track and field championships at the University of North Florida.
Evans kicked off the Florida High School Athletic Association’s large-school meet by winning the 4x800-meter relay in a time of 9 minutes, 14.24 seconds that ranks third best in the country this season.
That triggered what turned into a trifecta of impressive relay performances by the Trojans.
