Track and field meets this season have been limited to four teams. That will change at this week’s regional meets, where as many as 10 teams will compete.
Arbor View’s Israel Mann and Rickey Jones, Legacy’s Lee Wilson and BJ Phillips, and Bishop Gorman’s Mark Person and James Petrie will play at Southwest Minnesota State.
