Troy track second at Seeley-Swan

At Missoula, the Troy Trojans nearly claimed the top team spot among 19 squads.

The usual suspects showed out for the Trojans. Super sophomore Sean Opland took first in the 200-meter dash— by 0.03 seconds— and high jump, as well as second in the 100-meter dash.

Junior Pate Scott bested the field by nearly a foot with a long jump of 21-5.5.

Senior Nathan Olds claimed third in the triple jump and fourth in the high jump, and classmate Gabe Hickman took second in the   long jump and fourth in both the javelin and shot put.

The Trojans will look to build on their strong showing when they travel to Bigfork for Saturday’s district meet.
