Canyon del Oro seniorΒ Turner Washington, who has signed to throw the discus and shot put at Arizona, set the state record in the discus with a distance of 215 feet 8 inches last week in the Nike Rotary Invitational in Chandler. Washingtonβs improvement is remarkable. Last year, he threw the discus 191-2 in the same meet. As a CDO freshman, Turner threw the discus just 143-9. His progress is similar in the shot put; he had a distance of 33-10 as a freshman andΒ threw the shot put 64-10Β½ earlier this month.Β
