WACO – Perfection.
A word strived for in sports, but rarely achieved.
For a handful of Copperas Cove athletes, however, the word fits just fine after last weekend’s Region II-6A Track and Field Meet at Baylor’s Clyde Hart Track and Field Complex in Waco.
Cove junior Josh Canete had flawless form in the high jump as he arched his way over the 6-feet, 6-inch mark to earn his personal best mark and the gold medal.
It looked like Canete might not have a chance after missing his first two attempts at 6’, 2”, but he easily cleared the mark on his final attempt before bounding over the 6’, 4” and 6’, 6” marks in one attempt to set himself up for the gold.
