Sarah's Track & Field: Part 2 - District Meet

Today Sarah was part of the district Track & Field meet, and although the meet was canceled half way through, she still had fun!  Sarah was schedule to run the 80m, 600m, High Jump, 4X100 (Anchor), Medley (200m Anchor). After placing 6th in the 600m (24 competitors), she finished 1st in her qualifying heat and 6th in the finals of the girls 80m.  While the afternoon events where rained out, her school still did well and looks to have a solid track team for next year.   Check back later this weekend in the video section for clips from the two track meets this past week.
