Allstate Sugar Bowl Track & Field Official Meet Site Full 2013 Meet Results Girls Meet Records Boys Meet Records Past Meet Champions "Since coming on board in 1996 as the sponsor, the Sugar Bowl has made it possible to transform what was once a modest local event into one of the premiere high school track & field meets in the country," said meet director Mike Corn. "The Allstate Sugar Bowl Track & Field Classic has become a fixture on the schedule of many teams from throughout the South and continues to generate greater and greater interest nationwide. I think that the Sugar Bowl Committee recognized some time ago that high school sports are vital to our community and they have made a financial commitment to student athletes who take part in those sports, providing them with opportunities to compete in first class events that most probably would not have otherwise."  Ten meet records fell at the 2013 Allstate Sugar Bowl Track & Field Classic, including two of the meet's longest-standing records, on Friday and Saturday at Tad Gormley Stadium in New Orleans City Park. The team winners were John Curtis Christian School on the boys' side and McDonogh #35 on the girls' side. Edna Karr took second place for the boys while UMS-Wright (Mobile, Ala.) was the girls' runner-up.
