    Moss (At-Large) and Mitchell (Place 1) will serve new 3-year terms that will run through 2011.

    After they were sworn in, the Board's first official action was to reorganize officers.  On a motion by Thomas Martinez and a 2nd by Moss, the trustees chose to keep the same full slate of officers as previously elected.  The officers are: President - James "Bo" Stiles; Vice-President - Johnny Sanford; Secretary - Shorty Mitchell; and Asst. Secretary - Kathy Cotner.

    Taylor sophomore Mark Jackson (above center) turned all sorts of heads Friday at the Class AAA State Track & Field Meet as he joined junior Chasity Douglas (below center) on the University of Texas campus representing Taylor High School.

    Jackson, pictured above with Dr. Bruce Scott and THS track coach Mike Tennill, won the Silver Medal as he set personal and school records with a mark of 49'-1" in the Triple Jump. Pittsburg's Kendall Wright won the event for the second time with a Class AAA state record leap of 50'-8 3/4".

    Douglas, who won silver last year and took seven gold medals at nine meets this year, had high hopes in the Discus.  According to Coach Shelli Cobb, Chasity was tossing out throws of 135'+ in warm-ups, but all that changed when she hit the bar on her first official attempt and lost her timing.

    Douglas, pictured with Cobb and Dr. Scott below at Monday's board recognition, finished with a toss of 115' for 8th place and has plans to regroup and return to State next year to compete for the gold.  She was 1/2" short of qualifying for the Shot Put at the State Meet as well.
