It seems like anytime we travel up the road to Roosevelt for a Meet the wind meets us at the top of the canyon and it did just that yesterday at the Lubbock Roosevelt Acuff Relays. Being Slaton Tigerettes we are conditioned to run in the wind after days out on the track in practice getting good resistance running a few times a week. The girls competed very well coming in 3rd as a team.
