RANGELY I The Rangely Middle School harriers found themselves in Craig last weekend. They ran at Loudy-Simpson park and did a 2.2 mile course. The course is on a rough trail along the river, the girls and boys ran a combined race. In middle school the courses will vary from 1.8 miles to 2.2. This is the second meet that the athletes have run.
“They are all making great progress, they are learning how to run the course and how to work throughout the whole course,” said head coach Beth Scoggins.
Jay Nickson, who joined the team this week, was the first Rangely runner across the line with a time of 17:11. Tylee Fielder was the first girl across the line with a time of 19:57. Matthew Morgan ran a 20:02. Samantha Granger was right behind him with a time of 20:19. Rachel Elder and Taya Wren worked together throughout the race and found them separated by only a couple of seconds. Elder had a time of 20:47 and Wren had 20:53. Faith Prieto came in with a time of 22:02.
The athletes will not have a meet this weekend but will run Sept. 25 in Craig again.
