A little extended details concerning Anaconda’s third place finish at State. It was the first Top-3 finish for the Copperhead girls since 2013.

Junior Logan McKay has now earned All-State honors four straight years, finishing 12th, 9th, 2nd and 3rd, in her eighth grade season to yesterday, respectively. Those outstanding accomplishments place her on top of the pedestal of girls’ golf at AHS.

Thanks to Anaconda head coach Mark Torney for the history lesson (and the photo of Brittany, Julia, Alex and Emily with the 2013 trophy)!

A bunch of catching up to do, this was from last week at Anaconda’s junior high track and field meet. First I have to commend our coaches who continue to build the running and field events, even the distance races that lead into cross country. Such fantastic leadership which leads to the participation being excellent! And wow, do we ever have some real talent coming up through the ranks.
