AHS track teams place 3rd in Districts

The Class 2 District 7 track meet was held Saturday, May 8, at Knob Noster High School. The boys took third place with 66 points and qualified 12 to move on to sectionals. Hogan Prep won the meet with 95 points followed by Knob Noster in second with 86 points. The girls also took third place, qualifying nine for sectionals.

Coach Cochran said, “Another super job by the kids today. We had numerous personal bests with Kendall Schellman improving his shot put by 2 foot and Cody Hannah improving his by a foot. Great effort by the kids. They have improved all year and stepped up again today. Twelve have qualified to move on to sectionals next week. That is almost half of our team. I can’t credit the kids enough. Next week will be real tough. The top four in each event move on to state. Hopefully we will have another outstanding day.”
