Following the big day in Milledgeville, Vidalia Head Coach Mandy Godbee said, “These young athletes continue to shine as they bust through their goals each week. We have never had a season in which the athletes run so many personal best times each week. They are working hard and they are preparing themselves for a successful post season, and for this we are so proud!”

The Indians continue their season Thursday as they hit the road to compete at Bleckley County.
