Cornell Relays (Barton Hall)
December 1, 2007

Linda Hadfield (New York Mills) set a Section 3 Indoor Pole Vault record (best) of
11-03.75 ... Linda is sophomore at New York Mills HS (I don't believe NY Mills has
an indoor track team).

Linda finished 8th at last year's outdoor State Meet (10-6) and 2nd at the Empire
State Games (setting a Section 3 best of 10-11).
