EATON — Eaton’s boys and girls track team opened the season with a pair of meets last week at Ross and Greenville.
At both meets, the boys and girls each placed third.
“I’m very pleased with both meets,” Eaton coach Randy McKinney said. “We primarily competed against Division One schools in both meets, placing third in both with the girls and boys teams each night. It’s early and we have a lot of kids working really hard through the first three weeks of practice. Right now it’s just a matter of trying different athletes in different events to see what are their better events.”
At the Ross Relays on Wednesday, March 27, the boys team totaled 85 points to finish behind Cincinnati Oak Hills (140.5) and Talawanda (113).
The girls scored 99 points, also finishing behind Oak Hills (136) and Talawanda (115.5).
