PRESQUE ISLE — Fort Fairfield’s Andrew Lewis broke two Aroostook County records, the Washburn girls’ 4×100-meter relay team established another and Caribou dominated in the team results at last Tuesday’s Aroostook League Track and Field Championships.
Lewis and Washburn’s Carsyn Koch each took first place in four events, so Lewis won the Emery Plourde Award as the boys’ high scorer in the meet and Koch took the Howard Lello Award as the girls’ top scorer.
Lewis, a senior, is the new record holder in the triple jump with his mark of 41 feet, 6-1/4 inches, as well as for the high jump at 6 feet, 2-1/2 inches. He also took first place in the shot put (40 feet, 4-1/2 inches) and the discus (134 feet, 8 inches).
Koch joined relay teammates Kennedy Churchill, Joan Overman and Tyra Shaw to set a new County record at 54.67 seconds.
