• Lone Oak runner backs up vow to win Fox Trot 5K

    After finishing second in last year’s race, Brandon Womack vowed to return in 2013 and win the Caddo Mills Fox Trot 5K race.
    Womack kept his promise on Saturday, winning the 19th edition of the 3.1-mile race in record time: 16 minutes 18 seconds. Womack broke the course record of 16:30.72 set by last year’s winner Barry Hill. Hill, a hometown guy who’d won the last four Fox Trots, did not run in this year’s race, much to the disappointment of Womack.

• Greenville Lions focus on spring football practice

    Not only is Marvin Sedberry back with the Greenville Lions for a third time but he’s also brought back spring football training.
    Sedberry, who returned to the Lions for last season after coaching in Bryan and Alief, has opted for the Lions go through three weeks of spring training in preparation for the 2013 football season rather than taking the extra week in the fall. The University Interscholastic League gives 5A and 4A programs the option of spring training or the extra week. The Lions for several years skipped spring training.

• Rains vaulter takes third; Leonard sends two to state

    Rains sophomore Charlotte Brown, who is to receive a special award at the University Interscholastic League state track and field championships, made a strong bid on Friday to also make it to Austin as a competitor.
    Brown, who’ll be the 2013 Section 6 recipient of the National High School Spirit of Sport Award on May 11, took third place in the Region II-3A pole vault at Texas A&M University-Commerce. Brown matched her career-best by clearing 11 feet 6 inches. Brown cleared the same height as two vaulters from Longview Spring Hill, Casey Rice and Lindsey Sechrist, but they were awarded first and second places on the basis of fewer misses.
    The top two finishers automatically qualify for the Class 3A state championships at Mike A. Myers Stadium in Austin but Brown still could get in as a “wild card.” The ninth best mark among the eight qualifiers from the four regions in the state earns the “wild card” berth.
