WARRENTON, Ga. -- Fierce competition from other Class A girls' track teams prevented the Warren County High School Lady Screaming Devils doing as well as they have done in the past state track meets.
This year, the Lady Screaming Devils of coach Marleau Blount finished 12th.
"There was a real strong Class A field this year," said coach Blount. "The finish was the finale for a much decorated senior class and a promising underclass."
Again this season, the Lady Screaming Devils won the region championship.
