Moapa Valley Progress

Last week the Pirate track and field teams travelled to Desert Pines for their weekly meet where they competed against Green Valley and Desert Pines.

Shelbie Gray threw the Discus 100 feet 5 inches to win the girls discus and set her personal best throw.

Freshman Emily Mills won two events including the 800 meters and the 300 hurdles.

Ashley Noto placed second in the 300 hurdles.

Emma Eira placed second in the high jump with a height of 4-10 while Makenzie Bush placed 3rd with a height of 4-6.

Bethany Sprague and Claire Seydoux tied for second in the pole vault with 7 foot performances.

Malary Reed placed 1st in the long jump with a distance of 14 feet 5 inches.

The girls shotput was moved to later as the meet was ending due to a conflict with field space. Moapa went home before the event could even started due to the meet being on a school night.
