Marion Track and Field Wins First Meet, Madiline Wudstrack Named MVP
The Marion Track and Field came ready to do whatever it takes to win and they
proved it on their first meet. It was a cool day but the athletes kept it hot on the
track. On April 10th we traveled to Bowler-Greasham for their medley meet. The
boys had some very tough competition and worked hard to get every place they
could. The women also worked hard and scored many points for all there places
they took. In the end the women won the girls meet and the men took second. For
total point though Marion came through by winning the meet. We even had our
own Madiline Wudstrack voted MVP for the girls at the meet. This hasn’t been
done for a long time, and it couldn’t have been done with the hard work and
sacrifice of our athletes.
