Despite unfavorable weather on Thursday, April 7, the varsity track team was successful at the annual Jaguar Invitational, hosting De Soto, Maranatha, Shawnee Mission West, Ottawa, Schlagle and Washington. The girls team finished first overall with the help of sophomore Emily Brigham’s school record breaking vault of 11’8″ and freshman CJ Meeks contributed to the boys’ third place overall finish with his 4.49 minute 1-mile time.

“We expect to get in better shape and continue to improve,” said coach Chris Dunback. “We want to see the girls win their 11th league title and take a bunch of kids to state.”

The jaguars will appear next on Friday, April 15 at Shawnee Mission West high school.
