field meet in 30 years on Tuesday, Mar. 24.
Melinda Fitzwater, who has coached cross country at CHS for eight years, helped get the track and field
team organized and approved by school officials. Tim Moore and Ernie
Tingler are volunteer assistants.
CHS
competed against host Roane County and Herbert Hoover.
Fitzwater, who will have additional athletes
eligible when they reach their required 14 practice days, expressed
thanks to several area teams, including Gilmer, where
CHS
goes to practice once a week; St. Marys, who donated a set of hurdles
for the team to use; and Roane County, which also hosts the team for
practices.
The Red Devil girls placed second and the boys were
third.
