District track set Friday
By Sam Waller
Albany tuned up for district track competition March 31 by winning the boys team title at the Wildcat Relays in Santo.
The local boys scored 140 points to top the field of 14 teams, winning seven events, including two relays.
“We had a good meet overall,” coach Rod Britting said. “The jumpers did well, and Cole Chapman had a really good day.”
The Lions will compete at the District 10-2A meet Friday, April 8 at Cisco. The top four finishers in each event advance to the area meet with District 9-2A on Thursday, April 14 at Graham.
Britting was especially pleased with the performance of the relays. Albany won the 400 and 1600 relays, finishing second in the 800 relay.
In the girls division, Albany finished sixth with 65 points. Kiana Roberson won shot put and discus, while Sarah Cotter was first in the high jump.
Briley Tabor was second in the pole vault and Ella Webb placed in both hurdles events.
Albany’s JV boys were third with 90 points.
