  • Senior Spotlight: Courtney Gordon

    As a senior, Courtney Gordon understands that taking on a leadership role is an unwritten rule of her membership with the Vandalia High School girls track team.

    Therefore, it’s a good thing, as she puts it, that, “I like being in charge.”

    And she has certainly taken charge to lead by example.

    Gordon has been a staple in four events this season, regularly placing in the long jump, 100-meter dash and 300-meter hurdles, while also running a leg on a successful 4X100-meter relay team.
