The Culpeper High School girls track and field team picked up a narrow victory in the Battlefield District championships Thursday evening at Caroline High.
The Blue Devils narrowly edged Courtland, 181-180.
Culpeper was able to stay close enough to Courtland in the 1,600 relay – the final event of the meet – to win the title.
The Cougars placed first and Culpeper was second.
The Blue Devils had a standout showing from Kimberly Navarrete Guerrero, who won the triple jump and the 200 meters and placed second in the long jump and fourth in the 100.
Thrower Theresa Breckley swept the shot put and discus for Culpeper. Isabella Hardaway won the 3,200, placed second in the pole vault and third in the 1,600.
Courtland left no doubt on the boys side.
The Cougars cruised to the title behind victories in the 400 and 1,600 relays. Kwame Whitaker (400), Josiah Hrcka (discus), Christian Reid (3,200), Christian Lewis (high jump) and Jamaal Lewis (110 hurdles) earned individual victories for Courtland.
