If there’s one word to describe the feeling White County’s Jenna Gearing felt when she crossed the finish line first at the state championship meet in November in Carrollton, it would be relief. After overcoming sickness and dragging herself across the finish line in a previous meet only to finish second, Gearing said she was nervous going into the rest of the season because she “knew there was a chance it could happen again.” “She ran so hard she almost passed out,” White County coach Sam Borg said.
