Port Isabel Lady Tarpon Marlyn Cesenes took second place in the pole vault for the second week in a row at last Saturday’s Jim Hudson Relays at La Feria.  She cleared 8-feet, 6-inches, also for the second consecutive week.

“She came out 8-06 again, so we’re looking to move that one up,” Lady Tarpon track coach Julie Breedlove told the Press.

The pole vault winner, Rio Hondo’s Marilyn Treviño, was only half-a-foot above Cesenes with the winning height of 9-feet even.

Port Isabel collected points in four other events for a total of 21 points, and that was good for 10th in the final team standings.
