The first look at state track and field qualifying

Weather continues to plague the spring sports season, but that does not slow the track and field calendar.

Battle Mountain’s trip to Valor Christian on Friday was postponed until Monday by snow, but the fact remains that there are only two weeks left in the regular season, only two more weeks to qualify for state.

For 4A Battle Mountain and Eagle Valley the top 18 and ties get berths. (The ties get particularly crowded in the jumping events.) For 2A Vail Christian, the top nine in track events and the top 12 in field disciplines receive invites.



With the caveat that there’s a lot of running, leaping and throwing to go, here’s where local athletes are with two weeks left in the season. That said, we like the chances of Charise Crabb in the 100-meter hurdles, Vail Christian’s Ethan Pence in the 1,600 and the 3,200 and the Saints’ vaulters.
