Souderton Girls Track & Field was crowned PIAA State Champions (Girls AAA) on Saturday at Shippensburg, scoring 33 points, and holding off a late surge by JP McCaskey, who finished 2nd with 29 points.
Destini Smith completed the extremely rare triple crown, becoming state champion in all 3 jumping events. Her Triple Jump mark of 42-7 was first by roughly 3 feet. In High jump she was flawless, only having to jump 4 times, without a miss, finishing with 5-7. This approached allowed her to be a fresh as possible for long jump, and it paid off winning the event by almost 10 inches and a mark of 19-11.5
