This past Friday, the Broadwater Bulldogs traveled to Laurel for the Red Lodge Classic. A lot of the big schools were competing in either duals or triangulars, so many of the Class B and C teams were competing in one of a few big meets across the state including the Classic, as well as the Hamilton Invitational and Fergus Invite. Athletes from 27 Class B & C schools took to the Laurel complex a day early, as the meet was moved up due to a questionable forecast for Saturday. Being in Laurel gave the Bulldogs a preview of the venue that will be hosting not only their divisional meet, but also the Class A & B state competition.
The Varsity Lady Bulldogs placed second as a team with 82 points behind Huntley Project. The Lady Dogs have depth at many events with a strong squad and they added to that this weekend by returning a few from illness, injury and lack of practice time. The sprinters/throwers almost universally improved their times/throws and the distance squad placed a trio of runners in the top 10 at both the mile and two-mile distances.
Leading the way for the Bulldogs was senior Havyn Vandenacre winning the javelin throw and 100-meter hurdles, as well as scoring multiple points in her other events. Sophomore Kaitlyn Noyes won the triple jump for the second week, while also finishing in the top eight in all her events. Freshman Kyla Meissner pulled off the distance double by winning both the 1600-meter and 3200-meter races. Juniors Kaelyn Sangray and Abigail Wickens joined her in the top 10 at both distances. Holly Newman and Reese Wolfgram added a couple of top-ten performances in the long and triple jumps, while Jazlyn Martin and Aspen Slyker were both 7th in discus and javelin, respectively.
