The Southeast of Saline track and field teams were back in action on Friday at this year’s Abilene Invitational and performed well despite stacking up against much larger competition.
The boy's team finished their meet in third place with 107 points, just behind 5A Hays and 4A Wamego, with eight individuals and two relay teams accounting for 14 podium finishes.
