This weekend at St. Anthony's High School another Longwood Lion punched his ticket to compete for a state championship.
This time it was boys' track and field star Jaden Elcock who qualified to compete in the pole vault at this year’s Winter State Championship.
The 5'7", 130 pound 17 year old secured his spot with an impressive third-place finish when he cleared 12-6 at the Section XI Pole Vault and Weight Throw State Qualifier Meet.
Elcock has been a standout all season long and came into the meets two weeks ago ranked in the top two in the season. He is looking to do big things in the tournament and with his season and this showing Longwood has a star in their hands.
Next up for Elcock is the NYS title hunt.
