Pen Argyl girls 3,200-meter relay wins District 11 gold
Green Knights hold off Minersville to capture the first gold of Day 1 at the District 11 championships.
The Pen Argyl Area High School girls 3,200-meter relay team showed true grit in capturing the first gold medal awarded on Day 1 of the District 11 track and field championships Tuesday at the Whitehall Sports Complex.
The Green Knights came into the Class 2A distance relay with the top-seeded time but only by two seconds over Minersville. And in the eight-lap event, two seconds between teams from different leagues meant nothing.
