The Cowboys Get Back On The Track

Following a brief break the North Gem track team got back to action last week.  The Cowboys hit the road traveling to Murtaugh to take part in the Jennifer Crystal International.

Though they were small in number every single Cowboy athlete earned a personal best in at least one of their events and in some cases multiple events.  The O’Brien sisters, Mariah and Ciara were the only Lady Cowboys to make the trip.  Mariah earned a pr in the javelin and the 100 meter race while Ciara earned one in the 400 meter race.  For the boys team Haydn Frandsen earned pr’s in the shot put and javelin as well as a season best in the discus.  Alex Curtis earned a pr in the long jump and a season best in the 400 meter race.  In his first meet of the year Lukky Welker put up pr’s in the 100 meter race, long jump and triple jump.  Lastly Landon Hayes set pr’s in all four of his events.

The Cowboys will continue to ride through their season by traveling to Carey on Thursday for the Lee Cook Invitational.
