Wm E Hay athletes took part in the provincial Peace Hills high school track and field meet in Wetaskiwin on Saturday, Sept. 24 and returned with some good placements in their categories.
Coach Warren Aspenes said the team showed a strong performance and achieved a well deserved second place.
“The students finished second in the overall school team event as a result of some very strong performances,” said Aspenes.
“Many of the athletes we competed against were provincial medalists from last year so the level of competition was strong.”
Schools from all across the province were represented, from Fort MacMurray to Eagle Butte and Lethbridge.
“ Some of our students will be running this week in New Norway and next week at the Zone Meet in Wetaskiwin” said Aspenes.
The following are the students who finished in the top 10 of their races.
Alana Skodopole - 2nd Junior Women
