🎽 Kenston's Dylan Ringness 3rd LJ 22-8 1/2
Per the venerable Clipboard of Doom ... 2nd boys LJ state berth all-time for the Bombers & 19th in a boys field event
🎽 I'll save the clip for NH area video meet highlights, but Kenston's Dylan Ringness just hit for a 22-8 1/4 on his 1st attempt in LJ, shattering the school record
🎽 I can just tell watching these Day 2 results BTW ... It's notably more difficult to get out in this D2 complexion
Pretty decent performances that were regional caliber before in the old D1 are not making it in this D2
That extent of harsh is ... not ideal 🤷♂️

Again, I would've preferred to have Brush interview involvement here, too, but just ran into some self-inflicted bad luck there
