The girls track and field team enjoyed a great day at the Southwestern Conference track meet earlier this week.

Veronica Thompson's heroics in the 1600 relay and a strong team effort in every event help propel the girls to a second place finish.

For the boys team, Rob Scanlon was the only team member to take a first place spot, but the team finished eighth overall.
