The Bristol Central and Bristol Eastern indoor track and field programs both had some good efforts during Saturday’s CCC Championships at the Floyd Little Athletic Center in New Haven.
The Rams were the top boys team in the CCC South Division and finished sixth overall. Hunter Peterson claimed a silver medal in the high jump (6 feet, 0 inches) and was Central’s top individual performer. Peterson also finished seventh in the long jump (20-1.25).
