The AC/GC Chargers track teams hosted their second meet of the season, with the Gonzalez/Parrish Invitational last night.

The Chargers took second on the girls side with 127 team points, and key performances with first place finishes in the distance medley, and from Ava Campbell in the 800 meter and 1500 meter races, and Cadence Petersen in the 400 meter hurdles. Coach Colin Shawgo says that Campbell’s finish in the 800 and the team’s finish in the distance medley were both record breakers for the meet.

The boys were able to secure a first place finish, with 146 team points, and key performances came from the six gold medal placements. Andrew Mahaffey secured the top spot in the 1600 meter race, while Treyton Schneider did so in the 110 meter high hurdles and Tate Fever did in the 400 meter hurdles. Mason Wahl locked in the gold in the discus, while the 4X100 meter and sprint medley teams also took 1st in their races. Coach Cody Matthewson says that the sprint medley team broke the school record, which was only set last year. A full list of scoring results can be found in this story online.

(Since this was a home meet, the teams were able to enter extra contestants for events. Only two competitors for each team can score though, so any athletes in the top eight after the first two scorers do not collect points. These athletes will be noted as Did Not Score or DNS)
