Pool enthusiasts from across the globe participated in the sixth annual Wyoming Open pool tournament at the Platte Valley Community Center March 29 through 31.

Saratoga High School’s track team featured two first-place victories at the Wind River Invitational March 28.
The event took place at Pavillion’s Wind River High School, where Ben Gates proved to be the highest individual scorer for team, placing first in the 800-meter run. Gates’ quick running time of two minutes and 3.92 seconds qualified him for the Wyoming State Track and Field Championships.

With their first golf match coming up soon, Saratoga High School students have been fortunate enough to practice drives and putts with PGA professional Matt Daubner, serving as the team’s new head golf coach.

The organizational meeting of the Saratoga Men’s Golf Association takes place Thursday at 7 p.m. at the Saratoga Resort and Spa.
All duffers interested in participating in league play this summer at the Saratoga Golf Course on Wednesday afternoons are urged to attend in order to join the club and meet Matt Daubner, the new golf pro, at the resort.

<strong>Ben Gates</strong>
During the 2012-2013 basketball season, he averaged 9.5 points per game and scored 219 points through the season.
Those statistics earned Ben Gates a nod as an All Conference player his senior year.
Basketball head coach Josh Sandlian said Gates is a leader. He participates in every sport.

The Encampment athletes will have until Thursday to continue their conditioning. The next track meet is at Wind River.
The Natrona County Invite was cancelled Friday after Casper received six inches of snow, Encampment High School head track coach Kegan Willford said.
Willford is used to Wyoming’s unpredictable weather, he said, but it does put a lot of pressure on the athletes.
