Bigfork athletes defend their turf at home track meet
The Bigfork track and field team gave their hometown fans plenty to cheer about on Saturday as they hosted the Bigfork Invite.
The Bigfork boys placed second overall behind Whitefish, thanks in large part to key finishes by a number of juniors and underclassmen. Leading the way was junior Austin Savik, who had a dominant day in the hurdles. He claimed first place in the 110-meter hurdles with a personal best of 15.52 seconds and backed it up with a victory in the 300-meter hurdles, clocking in at 42.14 for a season best.
In the sprints, juniors Tayden West and Quinn Kerr helped Bigfork hold their own against some of the fastest athletes in western Montana. West finished seventh in the 100-meter dash with a season-best time of 11.86 seconds, just ahead of Kerr, who ran a personal best of 11.87. In the 200 meters, Kerr grabbed third with a PR of 24.00 seconds, followed closely by West in fourth at 24.05.
