The Southeast of Saline track and field teams competed in the Abilene Invitational on Friday night, and several individuals posted strong finishes before the day was done.
Despite missing a majority of their distance team due to the KU Relays, the Trojans finished the 4 and 5A heavy meet in sixth while the Lady Trojans wrapped up the day in a tie for ninth.
Hays would come away with both top team finishes as their boys closed out the day with 136 points, and their girls finished with 110.
Among those who medaled for SES was Tate Nurnberg, who won both the high jump and triple jump, setting a new school record in the latter with a jump of 45-8.5.
The previous record holder was none other than Tate's brother Brett, who set the mark to beat back in 2013.
