Bartlesville High’s track and field team had a standout performance at Regionals over the weekend, qualifying 12 athletes for State. The usual suspects from BHS, including jumpers and long-distance runners, have been performing well all spring and will be competing for championships at the State level.
David Ayres, head coach of Bartlesville High track and field, highlighted some of the relay teams that will be representing the school at the upcoming State competition. One athlete to watch is Gentry Turner, who is a strong contender to win the two-mile event. Turner is also one of the few girls who have run a sub-five-minute mile this season, making her a standout competitor for BHS.
Ayres also mentioned a few other Bartlesville qualifiers who have the potential to make a mark at the State meet. With 6A State set to take place in Oklahoma City this Friday and Saturday, all eyes will be on Bartlesville High’s talented track and field team as they compete for top honors in their events.
