Coach Kegan Wilford was proud of the Tigers track and field team’s first outing at the Glen Legler Memorial meet at Natrona last Saturday. Schools from Kelly Walsh, Big Piney, Buffalo, Dubois, Glenrock, Lander, Rawlins, Riverton, Rock Springs, Sheridan, Torrington and Wright attended the event.
Freshman Gage Bartlett scored the only point for the boy’s team with his eighth place finish in the boys’ 3200 meter run with a time of 12 minutes 28.33 seconds.
Sophomore McKenzie Powell led the girls’ team with 12 of their 14 points with her third place finish in the girls’ 400 meter dash with a time of 1:3.22, her seventh place finish in the girls’ 300 meter hurdles and her fifth place finish in the girls’ triple jump. Junior Cassidy Little took seventh place in the girls’ 800 meter run to add another two points to the girls’ team score which would ultimately place them ninth out of the 14 teams at the meet.
“We had a good meet for our first time out which was against mostly 2A and 3A teams,” said Willford.
The Encampment Tigers track team heads to Big Piney on March 27 for their next meet.
