Early melt Allows Head Start A new spring came into bloom and it was time for the Skyline track team to start training. With the early February snow melt, one could see Skyline's tracksters running through the streets of Idaho Falls. Happy with the large turn out, Coach Dennis Ballock was anxious to get the season start- ed. With many returning seniors and a resurfaced ff8Ck, the team was determined to make it a winning year. Through all the practices and meets, each member looked forward to the TigerlGrizzly ln- vitational, a chance to show all the other schools what they had. This large track meet took most of the day, but Skyline's winning positions made it well worth it. For the girls, Lisa White placed first in discus and shot- put, Sandy Schley placed first in the 100 hurdles and Bobbie Knight placed third in shotput. For the boys, Mike Bills placed first in shotputg Vince Bateman placed fourth in the 100,' Todd Williams placed fifth in the 800,' Gary Baxter placed sixth in 2005 Eric Roberts, sixth in the 1600, and the 400 relay of Doug Taylor, Scott Clark, Breck Crystal, and Vince Bateman placed second.
