Dax Boudreaux takes the lead in the 1600 meter run last Friday in Delcambre.

Boudreaux scores 32.5 out of Erath’s 106 points at Cashen

DELCAMBRE - Erath junior Dax Boudreaux may pull off something very few athletes have done in high school sports - run the table, literally.
Boudreaux, who has yet to lose at 1,600 meters this track season, added another win Friday night when he claimed the win in his signature event at the Cashen Relays.
Boudreaux won the 1600 race in five minutes and three seconds. He followed that victory with a win in the 800 and 3200-meter races. Plus, he ran a leg in the winning 4x800 meter relay race (9:08) with Lawson Boudreaux, Braxton Bright, and Cameron Soirez.

The Patriots, heading into Saturday’s game against the Notre Dame Pioneers, were on a 22-game winning streak. The streak ended when Notre Dame beat North Vermilion 6-4 in a non-district game.
The Pios (15-7) are the defending Division III state champions and are No. 3 in the Division III power rankings in 2022.
