Lister shatters school record at Elks Invite

Two record-breaking performances, one on the track and the other in the vaulting pit, highlighted the Greenwave’s performance at the 47th annual Elks Invitational at a rainy and wet Edward Arciniega Athletic Complex on Saturday.

Senior Allison Lister broke the school’s pole vault record with a mark of 10 feet – 6 inches better than the previous – to lead all 3A vaulters while finishing second. Senior sprinter Colton Peterson broke his own record in the 100-meter event, coming 0.33 seconds shy of the meet and track record. Fallon’s boys team finished third in the meet with 90 points behind 4A schools Reed (146) and McQueen (105). The Lady Wave finished sixth with 47 points, third-best among 3A schools, as McQueen won with 154.
