Stross last night

Doyle and Trey Stross were 1-3 in the 200 meters.

"In the 100, Schroeder and I talked and we didn't care who took which place, we just wanted to score points and get this conference championship," Doyle said.

Stross was running shoulder-to-shoulder with Doyle with about 10 meters to go in the 200 meters when he pulled up and limped across the finish line.

Avon Lake coach Keith Kauffman said Stross has had knee problems all track season. He thought he would be OK for next week's Division I district meet.

Stross, a first-year track athlete, was a member of Avon Lake's Division II state championship football team with Doyle, Schroeder and other members of the track team.

"Schroeder and I were working real hard to get Trey out for track," Doyle said. "He's such a great athlete."

Stross won the high jump (6-7), the 400 meters (50.57) and ran on the winning 4x200 relay team before he was injured. Schroeder won the long jump (21-0) and ran on both winning sprint relay teams.
