Averi Witt’s double individual title performance certainly gave Western Albemarle’s girls track team a big boost, but it was the Warriors incredible depth that carried the day.

Western’s relay teams won the 4×400 and 4×800 while also grabbing second in the 4×200.
Fluvanna County took second place in the girls Conference 29 meet, with Matasha Martin leading the way. Martin won the 55-meter dash and the 55-meter hurdles while also taking third in the high jump.
