The girl who got second was biting at my heels so I just had to not get too confident or cocky about my place.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Bila also took home the gold in the District 3, Class 2A Discus Throw with a 134-04 distance.<\/p>\n<p>Another Lanc-Leb student athlete saved her best for last.  Manheim Central&#8217;s Laci Nelson didn&#8217;t even make states last year, but in the 3A Shot Put, it was her 40-2.5 that no one could touch to take the state crown.<br \/>\n&#8220;I just won districts, so that was already super exciting since I didn&#8217;t even place the last two years.  Being seeded fourth also helped with my confidence, so it was just exciting,&#8221; said Nelson.<\/p>\n<p>Nelson also took home the bronze third place medal in the District 3, Class 3A tournament last week.<\/p>\n<p>Both Bila and Nelson are juniors and they now have their sights set on state and school records next year.<\/p>\n<p>Click on the photo below for Laci Nelson&#8217;s Gold performance in her shot put throw.<\/p>\n<div style=\"position:relative;padding-bottom:56.25%;overflow:hidden;height:0;max-width:100%;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" id=\"92feb9415625f6abe4f820692f644f68-vod-7f9275bf-8449-46fc-acf6-00b9bfb0bbcc\" src=\"https:\/\/iframe.dacast.com\/vod\/92feb9415625f6abe4f820692f644f68\/7f9275bf-8449-46fc-acf6-00b9bfb0bbcc\" width=\"100%\" height=\"420\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allow=\"autoplay;encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/llleaguesportsvideos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screenshot-2024-05-26-at-1.32.06-PM.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"454\" height=\"834\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-47246\" srcset=\"https:\/\/llleaguesportsvideos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screenshot-2024-05-26-at-1.32.06-PM.png 454w, https:\/\/llleaguesportsvideos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screenshot-2024-05-26-at-1.32.06-PM-163x300.png 163w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 454px) 100vw, 454px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/llleaguesportsvideos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screenshot-2024-05-26-at-1.31.54-PM.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"530\" height=\"822\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-47245\" srcset=\"https:\/\/llleaguesportsvideos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screenshot-2024-05-26-at-1.31.54-PM.png 530w, https:\/\/llleaguesportsvideos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screenshot-2024-05-26-at-1.31.54-PM-193x300.png 193w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 530px) 100vw, 530px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/llleaguesportsvideos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/tempImageEYnYfr-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1920\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-47243\" srcset=\"https:\/\/llleaguesportsvideos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/tempImageEYnYfr-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/llleaguesportsvideos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/tempImageEYnYfr-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/llleaguesportsvideos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/tempImageEYnYfr-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/llleaguesportsvideos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/tempImageEYnYfr-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/llleaguesportsvideos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/tempImageEYnYfr-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/llleaguesportsvideos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/tempImageEYnYfr-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lancaster Catholic and Manheim Central have new state champions after Friday&#8217;s PIAA State Track &#038; Field Championships at Shippensburg.
