The final handoff of the girls 1600-meter relay at Thursday’s Hall County Track and Field Championships befit the situation. When North Hall’s Olivia Bradley and Gainesville’s Gariya Cox took the batons, they were almost neck-and-neck to begin the last lap well ahead of the pack. So, too, were their respective teams, with the Red Elephants holding a slim two-point advantage heading into the evening’s final event at Flowery Branch High.
