The Mayde Creek Girls Varsity Track Team competed extremely well at the Bluebonnet Relays at Cub Stadium in Brenham on Friday, April 1. The girls placed 4^th with 58 points behind 1^st place Stratford who had 67. If we would have run a full squad, the girls would have easily won the meet.

In the final race of the night, the 4X400 meter relay placed 2^nd with a season best time of 4:16.76, just milliseconds behind the first place team who ran in a different heat. Relay members included: Danielle Ingram, Syntyche Laguerre, Jackie Gonzalez, & Alessa King. All 4 girls competed strong and had awesome finishes.

 

 

The Lady Rams also had two girls competing at the Nike Clyde Littlefield Texas Relays in Austin. Javlyn Cameron competed in the 100 meter hurdles and Samara Hodges competed in the High Jump.

Javlyn placed 6^th in a very strong 100 meter hurdle field with a time of 14.16.

Samara had a jump of 5-05.50 in the High Jump event. Her jump tied with 2^nd place, but based on missed attempts she finished in 6^th place.

 

The Varsity Girls will be back in action at the District 19-6A Championship Meet on April 12, 13 & 15 at Tompkins High School.

Please congratulate the girls when you see them. Thank you for all your support and what you do for our athletes!
