BY RUSS PANKONIN GRANT TRIBUNE-SENTINEL

Perkins County’s track teams faced some competi- tion from a number of larger schools at the Ed Moore Invi- tational at Ogallala Saturday. Track Coach Shane Hite said the field of larger schools would give him a good idea of where his team stood this early in the sea- son. Normally, the Plainsmen open the season with the E. Lee Todd Invitational on their home track. However, conflicts with the Easter holiday forced Perkins County to cancel this year’s invitational. As a result, the Plainsmen took part in the Ogallala meet. The teams will get some time to work on getting in better shape and honing their events since they will be idle until April 12. That’s when they will travel to Chappell for the Creek Val- ley twilight meet. Colton Pouk earned the best finish on the boys’ side with a third place finish in the 800. DIANE STAMM | JOHNSON PUBLICATIONS Casey Hanson placed in Triston Hite slides over the bar in the pole vault at the Ogallala meet April 1.
