Elementary school track meet hosted at Paso Robles High School
– About one hundred third, fourth, and fifth-grade student-athletes from elementary schools in Paso Robles and Shandon convened Wednesday afternoon at Paso Robles High School for a track meet. The students competed against athletes in the same grade.
Students from Winifred Pifer, Georgia Brown, Bauer-Speck, Virginia Peterson, Shandon, and several other schools participated.
High school track coach Ivan Huff served as a starter. He used a flag instead of a starter pistol.
Track coach Matt Carroll coordinated the finish line. Athletes from PRHS served as officials.
The top three place finishers were given medals, although the emphasis focused on participation.
