I wanted to give a shout out to Jason Green. In the Area 7-4A/8-4A Championships, Jason competed in five events, which is the maximum number of events an athlete can do in a track meet. He competed in the Long Jump - 6^th place; Triple Jump - 4^th place; 200m Dash - 4^th place; and ran leg two in the 4 x 100m and 4 x 200m Relay. He will be competing in the Triple Jump, 200m Dash, 4 x 100m Relay, and 4 x 200m Relay at the Regional meet in Lubbock, Texas on April 29^th and 30th.

Wow! What an evening for the varsity boys track and field team on day two of the District 8-4A Track and Field Championships.

The evening started with the boys finishing in 1st place in the 4 x 100m Relay, running their fastest time of the year. Kemarrius Mayes took 3rd place in the 100m Dash, breaking the school record of 10.98, running a time of 10.97. Aaron Martin took 2nd place in the 100m dash, setting a new school record with a time of 10.94.

The boys track and field team finished in the team standings as District 8-4A Runner-Up, scoring 173 points.

None of this is possible without a great coaching staff. Thank you to Coach Pritchett, Coach Maehs, Coach Bush, and Coach Foster for a job well done.

Next up is the Area 7-4A/8-4A Track and Field Championships next Thursday April 21st at Clark Stadium.
