BIGFORK — The Eureka boys and Bigfork girls each won handily on Saturday at the Bigfork Invitational track meet.

The Lions continued to dominate the field events, taking the top five places in the shot put and four of six in the discus. Cannan Smith won the pole vault, clearing 12 feet, and the 110 hurdles, in 15.81 seconds, to set state qualifying marks and season-bests in each. Owen Davis won shot put with a season-best 48 feet, 5 inches and Kaelan Yanak won the discus.

Libby’s Tim Goodman won the 800 and 1,600 runs and St. Regis’ Brandon Managhan won both the long and high jumps. Bigfork finished third as a team, Libby fifth and Troy eighth.

The Bigfork girls showed their depth throughout the lineup but dominated the distance runs, with junior Bryn Morley setting a Class B best mark of 5:09 to win the 1,600.

Anya Young won the 3,200 by nearly a minute and a half.

Madison Gardner won the 300 hurdles and Abby Ellison took the triple jump. The Vals also won the 400 relay.

Ronan’s Micalann McCrea stole the show, however, winning three events. She won the 100 in 13.08 seconds and showed her strength in the field, winning both the shot put and discus and finishing second in javelin. She earned 39 of her team’s 51 points to help the Maidens to a fifth place team finish.

Eureka finished second, Libby third and Troy ninth.
