Three County Teams Take on Chatfield Invite

April 23, 2019 by Paul Trende

Chatfield has had some trouble orchestrating its annual track and field meet over the years.  The event has been hit or miss per weather.  On a most decent 2019 April day (60s finally), the Gophers hosted RPH and LFCMC along with D-E and L-A.   The Tro-Cane boys/girls had a meet high ten total first place finishes, five second places.  Junior Triton Meldahl led the way with a … [Read more...]

April 15, 2019 by Paul Trende
