Reeths-Puffer senior Mason Darke capped his record-breaking career
Saturday by earning a pair of all-state awards at the Division 1 state
track finals in Rockford.

events. He took third place in the 110-meter hurdles with a time of
14.52 seconds, and was sixth in the 300 hurdles with a time of 38.20
