Christopher Smith: April 2010 Archives

Aztec boys track coach Steve Lanier gave an explanation Saturday for a split that's occurred this season. Aztec and Kirtland Central have been attending different meets than Farmington and Piedra Vista.

Here's what Lanier said about that:

"Our teams have competed every single week for two or three years. We wanted to go and see some other people. We know what they have and they know what we have. The last few weeks we'll come together and it should be a lot of fun. I hope."

He also predicted FHS to finish first or second at the Class 4A state championship meet May 7-8. The Scorpions could have several high scorers in Josh Newsome, Riley McGovern and Colton Curry.

"Chasing Farmington's hard. I really think Farmington is gonna be a state contender," he said. "Because they're tough, man. They're really tough. They should be first or second at state."

Stay true and keep pounding,
