The foursome of Marlee Henson, Kelsie McColloch, Chaise Benasky and Julia Paul-Blazquez captured second in the 400-meter relay and freshman Wyatt Whaley earned fourth in the shot put to pace the Greybull Buffs at last weekend’s State 2A Track and Field Championships in Casper.
Coach Nolan Tracy took 14 athletes — the most for the program in several years — and while they fell short of matching their performances from the regional meet, the Buffs left the Oil City with plenty to feel good about.
Start with the relay team. Three of the four runners — McColloch, Paul-Blazquez and Benasky — who were donning the blue and gold for the final time. They went out in a memorable way, posting a 52.74 and finishing behind only Kemmerer with a 52.19.
