A shot at the gold discus Regional champ makes third straight trip to state By Kenton BrooksPhoenix Sports Writer Lyons hopes to do well again at state. She actually practices her throwing for 30 minutes per day and knows well enough not to overdo it.
“I don’t want to throw my arm out in practice. I’m getting a lot of rest before state,” she said. “I’m usually out there by myself and that’s fine with me because I get more done that way.” Lyons hopes to get more done this year at state. She finished sixth and threw 105 feet as a sophomore. Despite qualifying for state last season, Lyons didn’t make the finals as a junior after finishing as the regional runner-up. “I’m more focused this year,” Lyons said. Lyons also is one of five Rougherettes competing in the state meet. The others include Colby Alexander in the 400-meter dash and 800- and 1,600-relays along with Lakeia Logan, Brittany Anderson and Leta Crawford in the 800 relay and Myesha Pease and Payton Johnson in the 1,600-relay.
