Warhorse track takes 2nd place in regular season finale

Second place is somewhere the Warhorse track team is not accustomed to seeing itself in this weird 2021 season. It has been championship plaque or bust thus far as the Horses won all of their previous meets.
Don’t get me wrong, there is nothing necessarily wrong with second place but this group has gotten used to being #1 and eagerly look to regain that status with their district meet Tuesday and Wednesday at Warhorse Stadium.
The 3200m Run begins at 10:00am Tuesday with other preliminary running events kicking off at 11:30am.
Gold
Earning gold medals were Xsavior Martinez, Christian Gerlach, Brady Hackebeil, Buddy Santos, Aaron Saenz, Evan Priest, and Jacob Featherly.
Martinez, Gerlach, Hackebeil, and Santos also won silver along with Xavier Garza, Geoffrey Seal, and Aiden Zapata.
Bronze medalists were Gerlach, Hackebeil, Santos, Hayden DuBose, Enrique Midobuche, Isaih Morin, John Schnautz, and Zachary Alvarez.
