GHS track teams sending 18 individuals, six relays to area meet

It was a good day at the office for the Gonzales High School Apache and Lady Apache track teams as they qualified a combined 18 athletes individually and all six relays for the area track meet, to be held Wednesday, April 9 at Floresville High School.

The Apaches qualified eight athletes in individual events, led by senior Jermaine Upshaw, who will be competing in three events — the 100m dash, shotput and discus. Upshaw won the gold medal in shotput and followed it up with silver in the 100m dash and bronze in the discus.

Two other Apaches qualified in two events: Travis Malveaux, who won the 300m hurdles and finished third in the triple jump, and Ckristopher Ramos, who got gold in the 3200m run and silver in the 1600m run.

Damion Hunt won the 200m dash to qualify for area, while Omar Borjon won silver in the discus. Anthony Castro took fourth in the 400m run, while Homero Ruiz took fourth in the 3200m run and Marcus Lampkin took fourth in shotput.

The 4x100, 4x200 and 4x400 relay teams also qualified for area after finishing third, second and third, respectively.

On the girls side, there were 10 athletes who qualified for the area meet in individual events. Jordyn Gonzales qualified for three events by winning gold in the 800m run and silver in both the 1600m and 3200m runs.

Four other Lady Apaches each qualified in two events, including Jayda Glass, who was district champion in both the 400m run and triple jump. Serynity Smith was district champion in the discus and placed fourth in the shotput. Kea’Anna White finished second in discus and third in shotput. Kaylyn Gonzales finished third in the 400m run and fourth in the 100m dash.

Aubrey Lindemann finished third in the 100m hurdles. Yaritza Angel finished fourth in the 3200m run. Carson Carrizales finished fourth in the 300m hurdles. Hailey Camarillo finished fourth in pole vault and Alaina Valle finished fourth in triple jump.
