On Friday, the high school track team travelled to their only out-of-state meet of the season to Pittsburg, Kansas, for the 37th annual Jock’s Nitch Gorilla Relays at the brand new track complex at Pittsburg State University. This meet is likely the most challenging meet the team will have all season outside of the state championship. Forty-four teams attended ranging from small class 1 teams like Sheldon to some of the best class 5 teams in Missouri like Ray-Pec and Nixa, and even included class 7 teams from Arkansas like Fayetteville. Not all athletes were able to participate due to the limited number of entries allowed by the meet organizers. The Bears made a Good Friday a great Friday by still managing to compete well with several scoring or setting 8 personal records, and two new school records were also set on the night!
Listed below are those who scored points for the team by finishing in the top 8 or set a new PR
