CROUCHING LADY HAWK Sarah Detlaff prepares to make a discus throw in Bigfork Saturday. All area track and field teams will be in Frenchtown Friday and Saturday for divisional meets.

If you really want to get to the next level, this week's divisional track meets in Frenchtown are the final opportunity to make those wishes reality.

THE HANDOFF COMPLETE, Hawk Derek Anderson speeds away from Harrison Hugus in Bigfork Saturday.

The Western B and Western C divisional track meets will be run in concert together in Frenchtown Friday and Saturday and all four Sanders County high schools will be there hoping to send their athletes on to the State B and C meets the following week.

Thompson Falls thinclads will be the only county teams competing in the Western B meet, while Plains, Noxon and Hot Springs athletes will compete in the Western C.

The top six place-winners in each event at Frenchtown will then automatically earn their ways to the state meets, for the Class B event in Laurel and the Class C meet in Great Falls the following week.

Of course, several Sanders County athletes have already qualified for those state meets due to the qualifying standards established for each classification several years ago, and will be eligible for those meets regardless of how they perform this week.
