Despite missing a few pieces, Glacier and Flathead each had great days at the Class AA track meets in Butte and Great Falls on Saturday.

The Glacier boys finished second at the Swede Dahlberg Memorial in Butte, scoring just a pair of individual wins but finishing high in a handful of events.

Distance runner Troy Fraley won the 3,200 finishing in 9:31.64. He also finished second in the 1,600.

Jake Tudahl won the javelin for Glacier, throwing 181 feet and leading a pack of Glacier placers in the event. Taylor Hulsander finished second in the javelin with a toss of 179-3 and Todd Ogden finished in fourth throwing 171-0.

The Pack boys got a handful of second place finishes, with Si’Cha Tallman finishing second in the high jump (6-1), Josiah Bumgarner finishing second in the pole vault with a season best 14-0 and Matt Iavicoli finishing runner up in the long jump with a leap of 20-8.

Matt Tokarz led a small group of Flathead runners in Butte, winning the triple jump by nearly two feet, leaping 45-11 for the win.

The Flathead girls had an outstanding day in Great Falls, finishing fifth at the Optimist Club Invitational despite running without star sprinter Tess Brenneman.

Kwyn Johnson broke her own school record in the triple jump with a spectacular leap of 37-9 1/2, two and a half feet farther than second place. The mark is the best in the state this year by more than a foot.

Johnson also logged qualifying marks in the long jump and 100 hurdles while finishing fifth in the 300 hurdles.

Also placing high for the Bravettes, Dani Davis finished second in the 200 (27.16) and the 400 relay team qualified for state with a third place finish of 50.34 seconds.

Lexy Boschee led the Wolfpack girls, winning the high and long jumps and finishing third in the 100 hurdles with a qualifying time of 15.27 seconds.

The two teams will meet on Tuesday in a crosstown duel at Legends Stadium.
