No new southeast district track and field records were set during the Weyburn Comprehensive School district track meet May 26, but 18 Weyburn athletes did perform well enough in the brisk, cold weather to advance to the provincial track and field meet June 3-4 at Douglas Park in Regina.

One of WCS's four track coaches, Kristy Knops, said three Comp athletes finished atop their respective individual high point standings as well, while one senior boys distance runner nearly broke the record in the 800 metres.

"Kris Frisk came very close to breaking the 800 metres senior boys' record. He was very close, and considering the weather, that was a feat in itself. If it had been nice out, I think he would have broken it," she said.

Frisk was also one of the three WCS students who finished atop their individual point standings, along with Senior Girls points leader Nicole Squires and Junior Boys points leader Orrie Gaab.
