South Florida Sun-Sentinel, Sunday - 05/19/2024 - 06:05 PM
Soon after Dillard’s two-point loss at last year’s state track meet, Panthers coach Davidson Gill went to work on a plan that could halt the 14-year stranglehold that Miami Northwestern has had in the Class 3A state girls track and field meet.
