The Powell Panthers used overall balance to out-point distance-dominating Jackson to capture the 2010 3A West boys' regional track title. Your Panther girls are the 2010 3A West runner-up.
Powell's boys scored points in every event this weekend to rack up 187 overall team points, finally outdistancing Jackson by a final 187-160 final count. The host Broncs were at their best in the 800, 1600 and 3200 and look to be a formidable opponent to the Panthers' state title defense later this week in Casper.
Cody placed a distant third with 101 points. They were followed by Lander (96), Pinedale (63.5), Lyman (30), Worland (13.5) and Mountain View (6).
On the girls' side of the regional meet, the Panthers spent all of Saturday rallying up from their fifth-place position after Day 1. Their climb came up eight points shy of a title as Jackson held on for a 126-118 victory. Cody again was third with 104 points, one better than Worland. The tight grouping among the top four schools should make life a little interesting when things kick off in Casper later this week for the state championships.
Filling out the rest of the order of finish, Mountain View was fifth with 81 points, followed by Lander (76), Pinedale (36) and Lyman (13).
Complete details on individual performances and state qualifiers will appear in Tuesday's edition of the Powell Tribune.
