Shorthanded Cards Still Have Good Showing

With the Soda Springs school district’s spring break in full swing the Cardinal track team made the trip to Oakley on Wednesday, March 20th.  Despite being low on numbers several Cardinals still made their presence known in the competitive group of ten schools including district rival Aberdeen.  

The Lady Cardinals would have a strong showing tying for first place as a team with Murtaugh.  The boys would not score as well as a team due to low numbers, however the Cardinal men that did compete did very well.  Degan Stoor would lead the Cardinal men placing tenth in the 100 meter sprint with a PR and fourth in the 200 meters.  Stoor would also claim the top spot in both the 110 meter hurdles and 300 meter hurdles.  Caleb Thompson and Zayden Garbett would also compete in the 100 and 200 meters and Thompson would grab first in the 400 meters.  

The Lady Cardinals would be led by Jinettie Garbett in the sprints and Izzy Shelton in the throwing events.  Garbett would lead ten different Cardinals in the 100 and 200 meters taking first in both events as well as the 400 meters.  Shelton would place sixth in the discus and break her own school record in the shot put with a toss of 38’11.25 besting her previous throw by just over two inches.  Rosie Harris would take forth in the pole vault, and high jump. India Galloway would take first in the 3200 meters and come in third in the 1600 meters just one spot behind teammate Rebekah Evans who grabbed second.   The Cardinal 4x400 meter relay would also take the top spot with a PR time.  The Cardinal men and women will continue their season journey Thursday the 28th as they attend the Cougar Classic in Firth.
