     GREAT THINGS HAPPEN in the PENN RELAYS !!!!       
   CONGRATULATIONS to MEGAN CLARK(Duke University) for soaring to the gold on Thursday at the 120th PENN RELAY CARNIVAL in Franklin Field. This senior Duke Ambassador of Sport put on a real show in brutal rainy/windy and cold conditions on the newly surfaced Track complex in the Championship of America Pole Vault event. Coach Shawn Wilbourn moved her in to her 6 step approach on this bizarre day and she flew to the gold watch win at 13′ 9.5″ and called it a day. Team mate Madison Heath placed second at 13′ 5.5″ for the Blue Devil sweep. Megan …having step problems in her first 3 years at Penn…never gave up her faith and drive…and after 4 dedicated years of training … realized her moment. NEVER GIVE UP wins again!!!!!
