Eldorado was represented by 11 athletes at the Regional Track Meet held Monday and Tuesday at South Plains College in Levelland. While none of them advanced to the State Track Meet, they competed well and represented Eldorado well at the Regional level. Brianda Torres and Wes Brown each claimed a 3rd place medal in the 100 Meter Dash. So did the boys 4 x 200 Meter Relay team of Garrett Lux, Rudy Sanchez, Ryan Castillo and Wes Brown.
The Lady Eagles claimed the Bi-District Softball Championship in Crane on Saturday, May 1st, by defeating Van Horn 17-5.
The game was slated to begin at 11am but a scheduling error on the part of the Midland Softball Officials Association caused a two hour delay. The Eldorado girls didn’t seem to be bothered, however, as they scored in the top of the 1st inning when Miranda Arispe came home on an Amy Alvizo single.
But the Green Team seemed sluggish in the field and committed three fielding errors that would allow Van Horn to score a pair of runs and take a 2-1 lead after an inning of play.
