LURAY, Aug. 13 — Luray High School sophomore Davey Johnson took top honors with a time of 4:51 at the third annual Chrisman Classic preseason event held Saturday, Aug. 13 at LHS.

Johnson starts off his sophomore campaign on solid ground after a stellar freshman year that produced Top 5 finishes in both the Bull Run District and Region B meets a year ago, as well as an All-State performance at the Class 2 VHSL meet at JMU. In addition, Johnson was an All-State performer in Indoor Track this past winter as well.

LHS senior Conner Janney finished just behind Johnson in third place with a time of 5:10.

Other top finishers at the pre-season meet include Page County High School sophomore A.J. Bosely (10th – 5:32); PCHS junior Summer Kite (4th in girls division – 6:20); LHS freshman Brianna Plum (6th girls – 6:25)

A special note from the event — Luray Middle School student Maya Jenkins finished in the Top 10 in the girls division with a time of 6:27, good enough for eighth place.
