CHARLESTON — Lockport's Derrius Rodgers flies alongside Sandburg's Ayo Abiona during their Class 3A 100-meter dash prelim at the IHSA Boys Track and Field State Finals on Friday, May 29, 2015. The Porter sprinter successfully advanced to Saturday's championship race after turning in a time of 10.68 seconds. He also later qualified in the 200-meter dash. Rodgers, a junior, also ran with the Porters' 4x100-meter and 4x200-meter relay squads. Both relay teams did not qualify to advance. Meanwhile, Abiona, a sophomore, also ran in the 200-meter dash. Neither his 10.80 time in the 100 nor his 22.33 in the 200 qualified him for a spot in the final on Saturday.
