May 5, 1984 — The Palmerton girls capture first place in the small school division at the Emrey Relay at Lehigh University. Georgianna Messinger contributes to both Blue Bomber victories. Her time of 10:29.2 in the 3000-meter run sets a new record at the relays, and she teams with Stacy Lake, Pam Schanstine and Shari Barbosa to claim the distance medley relay (800, 400, 1200, 800) in 12:55.2. Messinger also takes second in the 1500 and joins with Chrissy Visnosky, Maureen Taylor and Barbosa to finish second in the 3200 relay in a season-best time of 10:16.93.
