After the weather messed up last week’s indoor track debut, teams are finally getting an opportunity to compete this week. There are meets on two days this weekend, both in and out of state. Cheyenne and Gillette have events in Wyoming, while some schools are heading to Provo, UT. This is the start of a shorter seven-week indoor track season since last week was scratched. It leads up to the state championships on March 1 and 2, 2024, in Gillette.

Unbeknownst to us, the Rust Buster Invitational was rescheduled and done on Monday of this week. You can find the results below.
