The Bulldog track and field team competed in the Regional Track meet, held in Newcastle, this past weekend. Although many Bulldog athletes have already prequalified for the state meet, this was another opportunity to qualify.
Any athletes who finished in the top eight for individual events or the top four, for team events, would also move on to the state track meet, which will be held next weekend in Casper.
Rylie Marchant and Riley Banker both punched their tickets to the state meet in their running events for the Lady Bulldogs.
