How far is a State Medal-winning long jump? π€πββοΈ
The campers at Camp Invention decided to find out!
Inspired by Buckeye Central's own Collin Perry and his incredible 3rd-place finish in the Long Jump at the OHSAA State Track & Field Championships, campers measured out 22 feet across the floor to see if they could match his jump. (And fun fact: Collin actually jumped even farther than that!)
The results? It usually took campers three or four jumps to cover the same distance that Collin soared in just one leap! π€―
What a fun way to put an amazing athletic accomplishment into perspective and connect our campers with one of BC's own state standouts.
Good luck to Collin as he competes in the State Finals today in the 100M and 200M Dash! The entire BC community is cheering you on! β€οΈπ¦
