Pine Creek junior Alleandra Watt burst onto the Class 5A track and field scene as an ambitious freshman in 2012. She became the school’s first state champion in the 100- and 200-meter dash that year and hasn’t looked back since.
Fort Collins distance coach Chris Suppes knew his freshman phenom, Lauren Gregory, was in perfect position in the Class 5A 3,200-meter final on Thursday at Jeffco Stadium.
