We encourage residents of all ages to submit stories and photos for posting – for consideration, please email yours to editor@b-townblog.com!] Photos and Story by Isabel Herbruger, age 10 Spring break meant there was no track for two weeks. I really missed it. Yesterday (Thursday, April 16), the Pirates hosted Hazen at Memorial Stadium. The final meet score for the girls was Highline 13 to Hazen 135. For the boys it was Highline 19 to Hazen 113. The scores may sound really bad, but they are not. Hazen has many track and field players, so it is easy to score lots of points. The great thing about the Pirates is, 35 different personal records were set yesterday! There are only 68 Pirates in track, so more than half gave their best performance yesterday (click images to see larger versions/slideshow): The next meet is Thursday April 23, 2015 at 3:30 pm at the Renton Memorial Stadium. There is no admission fee to watch several schools compete and they have really good hotdogs there.
