Frank qualifies for state at first meet of season

In the first meet of the season, most track kids are just shaking the cobwebs off. Not Brittany Frank.
The Park City senior has already achieved a benchmark that other athletes will work toward all season long – she achieved the javelin qualifying standard last Thursday at the Laurel Quad track meet. This means Frank has already ensured herself a spot at the state track meet in the end of May.
She not only reached the qualifying standard of 116 feet, 1 inch, but Frank sailed past it with a throw of 123 feet, 5 inches.
In addition to qualifying for state, Frank’s mark of 123-05 won the event at Thursday’s meet. She beat out Class A competitors from Laurel, Hardin, and Billings Central, with the second place distance almost 14 feet behind Frank’s throw.
After the first week of track competition across Montana, Frank is sitting third in the state all-class deep lists. She is the only Class C girl to have qualified thus far in javelin.
Last year, Frank broke the Park City school javelin record twice. It currently sits at 128 feet, a mark she reached at last season’s district meet.
There’s plenty of time for Frank to solidify her place in the school record books during her last year in Panther track, and she’s already off to a promising start.
