Several Yoe High athletes are headed to the State Meet on May 10 in Austin.

Yoe Athletic Director Tommy Brashear reported that five athletes qualified for the State Meet after great performances a few weeks ago at Regionals.

Callyn Harris took silver in discus, setting a personal record in doing so. 

Za’Korien Spikes took silver in the 200-meter dash to qualify as well.

Kadrian Hammond took bronze in triple jump, despite setting a personal best. 

For the girls, freshman Brandi Drake took silver in the 100-meter dash and won gold in the 200-meter dash.
