LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- Natalie Svidal swept her three individual events at the Kentucky State Single A track and field meet for the second straight year Thursday in Lexington. And she still has another year to go. The Walden School junior won the 100 meter hurdles in 14.57 seconds. She won the triple jump with a leap of 37-03.25 and the long jump, going 17-11.5. She won those events last year as a sophomore and then won the same three during the indoor state championships.
