GREENSBORO—Philip Curley took first place in three individual events to lead the North Carolina School of Science and Math of Durham to the team title in the North Carolina High School Athletic Association state 1-A men’s track and field championships at North Carolina A&T State University on Friday.

Curley captured top honors in the 800, 1600 and 3200 meters to earn Most Valuable Performer honors as NCSSM recorded 62 points to 45 for runners-up Pamlico and Siler City Jordan-Matthews, who were knotted in second place.

Polk County was fourth with 37 and Ayden-Grifton finished fifth with 34 points.

NCSSM won its first track championship ever as a member of the NCHSAA.

Hampstead Topsail’s Ahmad Garrison established a new meet mark in the discus by better than two feet, recording a toss of 159 feet, six inches.

Topsail rolled to an easy victory in the women’s meet, more than doubling the score of its nearest competitors. Topsail tallied a whopping 88 points to 40 for second-place Princeton. Swain County was third with 38, followed by South Stokes and Hayesville with 36 points each.

Joule Breedlove of Swain County earned the women’s MVP, winning the triple jump with a new 1-A meet record distance of 38 feet, 1.25 inches. She also finished second in the 100 hurdles and fifth in the 300 hurdles.

Princeton’s Janie Bogle was a double champion, taking first in both the 100 and 200.
