She also ran the anchor leg of the fourth place 4x100-meter relay team. Junior Abby Snow (Massillon/ Jackson) was fourth in the javelin at 105'4" and sixth in the triple jump at 32'9".

In the running events, Hellisz was joined on the fourth place relay team that finished in 51.42 seconds by junior Cheryl Bell (Piqua), sophomore Lyndsey Armstrong (Ashtabula/ Geneva) and sophomore Katie Richter (Canfield).  Armstrong also placed sixth in the 100-meter hurdles in 16.08 seconds.
