They are looking forward to being able to jump into sand instead of practicing those jumps on the track. Yesterday, Mariah Portillo of the high school track team competed in Center and placed 7th in her shotput! Our middle school team performed incredibly well at their meet at Sangre de Cristo. Rowan Hubbard ranked 8th out of 77 in long jump, a personal best. The team will be competing at Centauri this Friday. Way to go Running Rams, we are so proud of you!
