The CBMS Panther track team hosted the CBMS Invitational track meet on April 12, 2013.  The teams attending were: Centralia, Columbia Catholic, Macon, Jeff Jr., Monroe City, and Holy Rosary.  Centralia competed as two separate teams since we have so many kids out.

The CBMS girls won the meet handily, beating second place Jeff Jr. by 59.5 points.  The CBMS boys finished second to Jeff Jr. by 40.5 points.  CBMS won the Combined Boys/Girls with 277.5 points.

Complete results are available here: http://www.athletic.net/TrackAndField/MeetResults.aspx?Meet=190591#39036

*NOTE - the results above have Centralia's two teams combined.  If you want the results with them separated, see the attached files.

Next week, CBMS travels to Bowling Green on Tuesday and then hosts the Boone County Relays on Friday.
