Three local athletes were on the track Saturday to compete at the Hanover Invitational.
Hannah Moore, a 2012 South Adams High School graduate, led the group as she helped her Huntington University women’s team to the title. The Foresters scored 146.5 points to win the 12-team event by more than 40 over runner-up Hanover.
Dylan Cope (Jay County – 2013) competed for the 11th-place Indiana University East men’s team, and Megan Taylor (Jay County – 2011) ran for the seventh-place Manchester University women’s squad.
Moore turned in her best effort in the 1,500-meter run with a time of 5 minutes, 4.84 seconds. She was just three hundredths of a second behind runner-up Emmy Zimmerman of Earlham and less than a second back of winning HU teammate Erin Rockey.
The sophomore also placed eighth in the 800 run in 2:36.76.
Cope turned in a 13th-place finish in his lone individual event of the day, posting a time of 4:21.71 in the 1,500 run. He joined Red Wolf teammates Kyle Hall, Matt Flood and Kyle Slick for a fourth place finish in the 4x400 relay in 3:41.76.
Taylor’s lone race for the Spartans came in the 400-meter dash as she finished in 15th place. She posted a time of 1 minute, 17.77 seconds.
