Montverde Academy completely dominated the 400m at the RADD Sunshine Showcase on Saturday.
On the ladies side, the Eagles swept spots 1-5.
However, this shouldn't come across as a surprise.
Just last weekend, Adaejah Hodge, Michelle Smith, Alivia Williams, and Skyler Franklin set a new national high school record in the 4x400m at the VA Showcase with a 3:37.63.
Williams, the University of Iowa signee, shined as she secured the victory in 54.30. Franklin and Hodge also joined Williams in the sub-55-second club as they clocked times of 54.75 and 54.84, respectively.
Nakira Hudson and Dasia Reed finished fourth and fifth in 55.76 and 56.63.
Montverde Academy's Jayvian Greene claimed the boys title in 47.88 with a solo effort while Dorian Mallary Jr. was the next fastest competitor with a 50.28.
Williams earned another sprint title as she clocked a 23.98 to win the 200m. Reed and Franklin both ran 24.24 and Smith finished in the next top spot with a 24.51.
In the boys 200m, Greene, the Tennessee signee, ran a 21.61 for the gold, while Hudson Allain finished in a close second with a 21.66.
After coming off a win in the invitational 60m at the VA Showcase, McKenzie Travis of Evangelical Christian School (FL) showcased herself as one of the top sprinters in the country. She set a lifetime best of 7.38 in Virginia and then came back this weekend to win the 60m in 7.49.
In the field, Jaden Lippett of Winter Haven (FL) earned long and triple jump titles in Gainesville with marks of 22-3 and 48-10.25.
