The Green River Track team traveled to Jackson to compete in the 4A West Regionals in less than ideal weather.
Teams from Evanston, Rock Springs, Jackson, Natrona and Kelly Walsh also competed at the meet.
The top eight finishers qualify for State, with some athletes having already prequalified by achieving certain benchmarks during the season.
For the Lady Wolves, sophomore Mariyah Brady leads the way qualifying in three events, while seniors Lauren Hoyt and Natasha Young qualified in two and Kaisa Arnell, Chatney Tirrell, Erika Wilson and Jacque Vaquera all qualified in a single event.
The boys are led by senior Kyle Cacho, who qualified in four events. He was followed by seniors Christian Gaytan, Brayden Kovick and Nick Boldt; junior Marcos Valerio and freshman Marcos Molina all qualifying in two events. Junior David Martinez, sophomore Drew Gibson and freshman Seth White each qualified in one event.
A total of eight boys and eight girls will compete this week at Kelly Walsh High school at the 2018 Wyoming State High School Championships.
Asides all the state qualifiers, many competitors set their personal records and many just missed qualifying for the State meet.
Head track coach Dan Hansen was very pleased with his team’s efforts in this meet and throughout the season, and while the season has ended for many of the track competitors, there is a very large contingent of underclassman, which bodes well for the future of Green River track if they all stick with the sport.
