Wyoming Track Athletes Shine at Simplot Games

The huge Simplot Games Indoor Track meet was held over the weekend on the campus of Idaho State University in Pocatello and once again, a huge Wyoming contingent took part. Overall, there were well over 2000 athletes from 19 states and 3 countries competing so it was an elite-level meet.

There were 2 individual champions from Wyoming as Natrona's Kaiden Lee won the high jump at 6 feet inches and he also placed 2nd in the triple jump.
