Garden City boys, Liberal girls win 6A regional titles

Garden City, Kan. (westernkansasnews.com)–Regional track was a good day overall for the area schools in Class 6A on Friday at Garden City High School. The regional also shared the track and field areas with Class 3A, as it ended up being a dual regional. 

Thanks to a strong showing on the track, Garden City was able to pull away to win the boys regional, while Dodge City was third. Liberal held off Wichita East to win the girls regional, while Dodge City was third and Garden City finished in a tie for fifth.

Garden City’s Jerry Artega would sweep the 100 and 200-meter dashes, and Devin Chappel took the 800, 1600 and 3200-meter runs. The Red Demons took the 4x100M relay and also got regional championship performances from Dylan Sonday in the javelin and Vincent Ortiz in the long jump.

On the girls side, Dodge City’s Ariana De La Rosa was the regional champion in javelin, while Garden City’s Avery Just won the pole vault.

Class 6A will be part of the afternoon session on Friday and all day Saturday at the State Track & Field Championships, held at Cessna Stadium in Wichita.
