John Curtis' King Taylor - Taylor owns the No. 4 time in the nation with his 48.31 on the banked track at The Galleria Games. While his time of 50.04 on LSU's flat track was not quite as fast, Taylor was still able to finish on the podium with a third place finish.
ARCA's Lucas Owens - Is ranked No. 2 on the Louisiana high school returner's list in the pole vault. His season best in 2023 was 13-9. He opened his 2024 on Saturday with the same height, tying his personal record.
