Indoor Track team competes at State Competition

The Campbell County Recreation Center Fieldhouse in Gillette was the site of this year's 2023 State Indoor Track Championships this past Friday and Saturday, March 3-4. Thirty-one teams were competing in the two classifications, 3A and 4A, with 21 of those teams competing in the 3A division with the Wolves. The top eight in each event received individual medals.

According to Head Track Coach Dan Hansen, "Green River competed with a total of 16 boys and girls with nine of them placing. All but one of those that did not place had at least one P.R. (Personal Record)."

Those receiving medals for the girls were Lily Murdock, Izzy Murdock, Madison Murdock and Meeka Iwen taking third place in the Girls 4X800 Meter Relay, along with shot putter Lillian Allison who finished second with a solid throw of 37-11.00.

For the boys, three sophomore pole vaulters who joined the team one week out from basketball and swimming seasons placed third, fourth, and seventh. Keegan Bailey led the way in third, clearing 10-6.00 with the fewest misses at lower heights. He was followed by Christian Oswald in fourth, also clearing 10-6.00, and Trace Erdman clearing 10-0.00. The top finisher for the boys was shot putter Dillon Davis who took second with a throw of 47-04.50.

The Wyoming High School Outdoor Track and Field season is beginning, with the first practice on Monday, March 6. The first competition day is on Thursday, March 16.
