Noxon's Williams launches to new State C record
Noxon senior Ricky Williams has boldly gone where no one, at least no Montana Class C High School high jumper, has ever gone.
Williams saved the best for last in the last track and field meet of his high school career and in the process broke a 48-year-old state record when he cleared the high jump bar at 6-9 1/2 inches during this past weekend’s Class C State Track and Field championship in Missoula.
A multiple sport standout throughout his time as a Red Devil, Williams broke the record previously held by Flaxville’s Dave Weltikol, who jumped 6-9 even in 1977.
