On May 16, the team competed in the 1A district meet. Every athlete who competed earned a medal or ribbon. As a result, we sent six athletes to compete in 11 events at the OSAA State Track Meet at Hayward Field in Eugene, Ore., on May 20-21. Warrior Heart played a big part in the two-day competition with the following results – James, 7 th 800M and 4 th 100M; Morgan, 10 th 300 Hurdles; Daniel, 6 th 400M and 2 nd 300 Hurdles; and David, 2 nd Long Jump.
