RACING TO THE FINISH - Katelyn Christensen of Hot Springs and Riley Richter of Noxon duel a Sheridan runner during action at the Western C divisional meet in Missoula last Thursday.

AIMING FOR STATE - Plains senior Malachi Paulsen won fourth place and a berth in the State C meet at the Western C meet in Missoula last week.

The State C meet will be held in conjunction with the State AA meet at the Laurel Sports Complex Thursday through Saturday and coach Denise Montgomery's Plains track and field team will be represented there by standout javelin throwers Kylee Altmiller and Malachi Paulsen.

A junior, Altmiller pitched the spear a career-best 119 feet, 6 inches to win third in the girls' javelin at the Western C meet in Missoula last week, while Paulsen, a senior, air-lifted his spear 153-1 to earn fourth place in the boys' javelin.

Although Altmiller and Paulsen are the only two Plains athletes moving on to the State C, many others tried to make their way there in Missoula last week.

For the Trotters, Audrey Brown, Cree Lulack, Lexa Craft, Rachel McNulty and Deryian Sheehan also carried the colors for Plains, and Gabe Gamboa, Nathan McNulty, A.J. Jermyn, Charlie Rehbein and Tucker Foster competed for the Horsemen.
