    FRANKFORT, Ohio - University of Grande director of cross country/track & field Steve Gruenberg has announced the signing of Adena High School's Max Putnam for the 2014-15 school year.
    The 6-foot-2, 170-pound Putnam was a pole vaulter throughout his prep career for head coach Jerry Smith's Warriors. His career-best vault of 11-0 came during his junior year and was equaled again this spring.
    "I'm excited," Putnam said of his signing with the RedStorm. "Vaulting at the collegiate level wasn't something I'd really thought about until recently."
