Coach Herron said: "I thought our kids did a very nice job over
the weekend. The weather conditions were tough again, but they kept
focused and fought through. There were multiple athletes that
stepped up, and that is the main reason why we brought home both
trophies this year.
"We have to remain focused and fine-tune some things for the
national meet in two weeks, but I think our kids are more than ready
for that challenge."
The national meet will be May 19-21 in Hutchison, Kan. Lincoln
will be represented by 20 athletes at the meet.
