Duo of Encampment siblings continue to lead the way for track and field as season approaches regional and state meets
In the last four weeks, the Jordan siblings, Quade and Kristie, have been dominating both in shot put and discus. Add to the mix the Pickett siblings Kaben and Eckerley Pickett, who have also stepped it up for Encampment getting top finishes.
Other Encampment students also made some top finishes while at the Burt Willford Memorial Invite in Saratoga. It was something Kegan Willford, Encampment Track and Field Head Coach, was hoping for.
“We had a great day at Saratoga with a lot of students improving in their events,” Wilford said. “It’s great to continue to see this as we get close to regionals”.
