PADEN BELL – BLITZ PICK

Paden Bell continues to dominate in distance running. She pulled off the rare feat of claiming four region titles, taking the top spot on the podium in the 400, 800, 1600, and 3200. She qualified for state in all four events, and will look to lead the Lady Tigers in the State Championships. This is Bell’s fifth-ever POW award as just a sophomore, putting her closer to the top level of most decorated among BLITZ athletes.
