When it was time to determine what he’d compete in during the postseason for the Reynoldsburg boys track and field team, senior Marsellis Davis had a difficult decision to make.
Reynoldsburg Roundup: Raiders boys track and field team expecting depth to be a strength

During seasons such as 2016 when it was the Division I state runner-up and in 2019 when it finished fourth in its league but won a district championship, the Reynoldsburg boys track and field team leaned on what coach Richard Ladowitz calls “top-notch athletes” who could score in multiple events.
Although the Raiders potentially have a standout distance runner in senior Marsellis Davis, who is a two-time state qualifier in cross country, they aren’t expecting to be one-dimensional this spring.
“Overall boys-wise, I’ve been impressed,” Ladowitz said. “We’ve had some good depth or the first time in a long time. This year we have a lot of depth and more sprinters than I thought we’d ever have. We had about 15 kids (participate in the indoor season this winter) and a lot of the distance kids did their running club and didn’t compete indoors.”
