It only seems that every time out Kaitlyn Dugan sets a long-jump record for the
North Penn
girls' track and field team.
Dugan, who is bound for the University of New Hampshire, broke her own school record in that event for the second time this season yesterday in the Maidens' 121-28 Suburban One National Conference win over visiting Pennsbury.
Dugan's effort of 18 feet, 33/4 inches easily outdistanced Kelsey Lind (17-0) of Pennsbury, who finished second.
It was one of four events -long jump, triple jump, high jump and 200-meter dash - that Dugan won. Her previous school record in the long jump was 18-13/4, established one week ago in a 107-43 win over Pennridge.
