Ellis Track and Field has another excellent outing this last Friday at Hill City. With 18 teams present the competition was stiff and probably the most difficult they would see until Regionals. Of those 18 teams, Girls came in 2nd, with Boys in 7th. We had dozens of personal records and one javelin throw within a foot of the school record! The track team has another short turnaround as we head to Plainville tomorrow (4/18/23).
