She won the high jump by six inches and the long jump by 17 inches. Franklin won the meet 52-48 to finish 5-0 in the league and take home the Kelley-Rex title. On Saturday at the Reggie Lewis Center, Dumas was part of the 4×50 Shuttle Hurdles team that finished second in a time of 30.54 (just 0.44 behind Westford Academy), she threw the shot put 10.13, which was good for fifth overall (teammate Lily Deforge took first with a throw of 11.74), and she finished second in the high jump at 1.57M (just 0.05M behind the athlete from Central Catholic).
