The Green River High School Girls and Boys Indoor Track team took the long journey to Northeast Wyoming to participate in the Basin Nation Indoor Track Meet in Gillette, hosted by Thunder Basin High School.
There were seventeen teams from Northeast and Central Wyoming, with Green River being the sole participant from Southwest Wyoming. Green River took a small team of 13 athletes who had to pre-qualify for the meet as the Wolves used this meet as a “true” varsity meet.
Head Track Coach Dan Hansen pointed out that the meet started at 10 a.m. and did not get over until 8 p.m., making for a very long day that was not conducive to good performances. Nevertheless, it was a good pre-run to the State Track and Field meet in four weeks, which will be held in Gillette.
One performance singled out by Coach Hansen was the fourth place finish by the girls 4X800 Meter team made up of Meeka Iwen, Isabelle Murdock, Lily Murdock and Madison Murdock. Isabelle was also 12th in the 3,200 Meter run and Madison was 12th in the 800 Meter run.
For the boys, the coach noted the fine performance of Dillon Davis, who finished sixth in the shot put.
Hansen was also pleased that their were a number of personal bests (P.R.s), which indicates the athletes are improving as the season progresses. The coach hopes that in four more weeks they will have a few more athletes able to join the group for the trip to the State meet.
Next up for the Wolves will be a meet at Natrona High School in Casper before heading to the prestigious Simplot Games in Idaho in two weeks.
