Mt. Lebanon freshman runner finds a silver lining
Cara De Carlo's feature on Mt. Lebanon's Kelsey Potts:
"Mt. Lebanon freshman Kelsey Potts recorded a time of 4:55.07 in the 1,600-meter race last Thursday at the WPIAL Class AAA track and field championships at Baldwin Stadium.
In many years, that performance would have put her on top of the medals stand. But last week's race wasn't your typical race ... far from it.
Shaler Area's Brianna Schwartz finished in a sizzling 4:47.07, demolishing the existing WPIAL record and taking the title. Potts, who earned second place and easily qualified for the PIAA championship meet, recalled what it was like to compete in Schwartz's run for the ages."
