Big 8 Conference Championships

The Madison Memorial Track & Field team hosted the best athletes from the Big 8 Conference Tuesday night at Mansfield Stadium as teams competed for Conference Championships. The weather was balmy and storms threatened all night long but the rain held off until after completion and great performances were had by many Spartans. Both JMM teams performed at their best for the season and had excellent team totals. The boys compiled 84 points to claim 3rd place and the girls totaled 76 points for 4th place. This was a great kickoff to the championship season and provides great momentum for all Memorial Tracksters.
