Three Early Meets Luxury For B-H
The Britton-Hecla track squad had had the luxury of competing in three early-season meets in the past week and Coach Stephanie Symens said the experience is paying dividends. “It has been great to have three meets under our belts,” said Symens. “Last year we still had so much snow on the ground that it was not possible. We are catching some times we ended with last year, and that is making our kids super excited that they are meeting their goals early in the season. We need to take care of ourselves and have some of our injuries heal over the next couple weeks, but I am excited to see how our kids finish this month out. They are working hard to meet their goals.”
