Perfect Score: Lady Royals Sweep Cross Country Meet With Tate, Northview, EWMS
October 20, 2011
The Jay High School Lady Royals achieved a perfect score in a recent cross country meet at Simms Middle School in Pace — capturing the top five places in a field of over 70 runners from eight schools, including Northview and Tate. It was the first perfect score for the Lady Royals since the mid-1990’s.

“When the Lady Royals started the season they assumed it would be a rebuilding year because the Royals had lost three of their top five runners,” said Coach Stan Blackman.
Robin Blackman had led the Royals last season and went on to run at Troy University. Leely Trevino now attends FSU and helped to lead the Royals to state last year where they become Florida’s top public school in class 1A.
“But this season has turned out to be anything but average,” Blackman said.
Top runners for the Lady Royals were:
1st place Jorja Agrait — 21:53
2nd place Allison Blair — 22:12
3Rd place Jessica Thornton — 22:15
4th place Savannah Brown — 23:03
5th place Jenna Thornton — 23:05
9th Place Ally Settle
12th Place Kristen Pike
Northview, Tate, Central, Milton, Pace, and Rocky Bayou also took part in the meet at Simms Middle. Scores and stats were not available Wednesday from host school Pace High School.
