Last night, the Batesville Bulldogs took advantage of it as they competed in the Girls Sectional Track and Field meet at East Central. Those finishing in the top 3 in each event
automatically qualify to advance to the regional meet, and the Dogs had individuals and relays move on in 12 of the 16 events. All of this set the Bulldogs up for a strong 2nd place finish, just 19 points away from 1st place East Central.
