Sheridan HS Track and Field Hurdler Wins Twice At WTC: Of those from Sheridan High School who competed at last week’s Wyoming Track Classic in Casper, one of them won 2 events.

Senior Garrett Otto won both the 110 and 300 meter hurdles races.

He says running hurdles is a 2-in-1 challenge.

At last year’s state meet, Otto was 3rd in the 110 meter hurdles and 2nd in the 300 meter hurdles races.

The state meet starts 2 weeks from this Thursday.

Sheridan Lady Maverick Lacrosse: The Sheridan Lady Mavericks split their lone 2 home games of the season this past weekend, losing to Billings and defeating Cheyenne.

The team was having a little trouble at the beginning of the season with numbers, but senior Brooke Alexander says that problem has passed and the new players have caught on quickly.

The Lady Mavericks are last year’s Montana Lacrosse League JV Champs.

Sheridan is 4-3 on the season so far and Head Coach Brianna Scholl says the team has fared well against varsity opponents and would like to see the team get the numbers needed to play at the varsity level down the road.

The Lady Mavericks next play this coming Friday at Billings, and stay overnight to play Rapid City on Saturday.

The State Meet is next weekend in Bozeman.

Sheridan/Buffalo HS Soccer: Sheridan and Campbell County will play each other for the 2nd time in as many weeks.

A win or a tie for the Lady Broncs, and they will secure the #1 seed for next week’s East Regional Tournament and with it, comes an automatic bid to the state tournament.
