LADY BRAVES 2010 4A STATE CHAMPS!

The 2010 Track & Field Lady Braves make history by landing the school's first 4A State Championship banner and the first girl's track and field banner in school history. It came down to the last event but experience, tenacity, and guts pulled it out. Thanks to everyone who helped make it possible. Parents, coaches, athletes-seniors, we will miss you...thanks for your effort and sacrifice. To those of us who are still here it's time to get back to work...dealing with success is often more difficult than dealing with adversity.

Here is a link to some video from the Casper-Star Tribune with Audrey and the rest of the team after the meet
