Sunday, April 12, 2015

MONROVIA -- Greencastle ran in the Bulldog invitational at Monrovia Saturday and took first-place honors.

The Bulldog convention is a unique track meet with a specific set of rules for each event. The meet was scored six points for first, three points for second, two points for third and zero points for fourth.

Each event was a relay featuring alternate boy and girl participants. Field events were conducted separately and then the best results were added together for each teams two boys and two girls in each field event that made up a relay. The running events were run like a standard relay event only the first leg of each relay was a boy, who handed off to a girl, then a boy and the girl ran the anchor.

"The Tiger Cub boys and girls team really worked hard together in each relay," GHS coach Garry Anderson said. "They were very supportive and excited throughout the meet. There were several outstanding performances Saturday for the Tiger Cubs. Our throwers each had personal best in both shot put and discus.

"They also ran a throwers relay with throwers who had competed during the day in the individual portion. This proved to be a very exciting relay as the throwers from Greencastle won the relay as each runner ran 200 meters and ran a combined time of 2:01.81."

The next GHS track meet is Thursday against Owen Valley at home.
