(Riverton, WY) – The Riverton and Lander Middle School 7th/8th-grade boys and girls track teams joined the varsity teams from both schools at a Tuesday dual meet in Riverton.
Riverton won three of the four middle school divisions, taking the 8th-grade girls’ title 54-50 in a close contest over Lander, the 7th-grade boys division 69-48, and the 7th-grade girls 64-53.
Lander won the 8th-grade boys’ contest in dramatic fashion.
Lander trailed Riverton 55-53 entering the final event of the day, the 800-meter sprint medley relay. The event features legs of 100, 100, and 200 meters with a 400-meter anchor leg.
Lander’s first three runners, Silas Dailey, Boyd Ramirez, and Weston Zagrondnick, handed the baton to anchorman Chase Hartpence eight meters behind the Riverton team.
Hartpence, a winner in the open 800 and 1600-meter runs already, took the baton and cruised by Riverton for a five-second win.
In dual meets, only the winning relay scores points. Lander tallied five to pass Riverton and won the meet 58-55.
