The torrential rain showers had no effect on Saturday’s Riverside Indoor Invitational at the John L. Beaver Field House Saturday in Gainesville, as Riverside Military Academy made its presence known in the state’s first sanctioned indoor track meet in 31 years. The Eagles produced two victories and eight top-five finishes to tied for second overall with Marietta behind runner up Marietta High and winner Centennial High. The meet itself featured state and nationally ranked athletes, including the nation’s top-ranked female pole vaulter Carson Dingler, who cleared 13 feet, four inches to win the event.
