Warren?G. Harding chasing state title
WARREN THE Warren G. Harding boys track and field team ended last season standing on the infield of Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium — disappointed about their finish. Most teams would be ecstatic about finishing third in the state behind Cleveland Glenville and Gahanna Lincoln in Division I. Not these Raiders. WGH expects to be vie for a team state championship each and every year. It was Harding’s best finish since 1967, when the then-Panthers were second in the state. WGH took runner-up honors in 1919 and ’20. Being a state contender has been the goal of coach Charles Penny since he took over the program. Senior DeAver Williamson, who has verbally committed to play football the University of Michigan this fall, is the Division I returning state champion in the 100-meter dash. He is one of the fastest runners in the state this season. The road to the state championship starts Saturday with the varsity boys team heading to The Ohio State University for an indoor meet.
