Bastien Bests Own Saline High School Records

Saline senior Steve Bastien broke his own school records in the long jump and pole vault Tuesday when the Hornets hosted Monroe.

Bastien leaped 24 feet and 1/4 inch to break his own record of 23 feet, nine inches. Prior to this season, Eric Williams 22 foot, 8 1/2 inch jump in 2006 was the school record.
