Time stops Tigers’ chances at track meet

Time stops Tigers’ chances at track meet

It has usually been the weather interfering with the track meets. This time it ended up being UIL rules. Dripping Springs went to the Hays Track meet and were in good shape to make a run at the title. However, the meet was going a little slow and it ran up against the UIL rule that no new event could start after 10 p.m. on a school night. So the meet had to be halted with the 1600 and 1600 relay not being run, leaving the Tigers in second place and the Lady Tigers third. These were definitely money races for the DS teams and whether they would be enough would be debatable. Nevertheless, what is not debatable is the 400 Tiger relay team continues to lower their record. 03/23/2022 04:00 AM

The Dripping Springs Lacrosse team traveled to Lake Travis on Thursday night to take on the Cavaliers in the traditional Thursday before spring break rivalry matchup. The last time the two teams took the field at LT was on the eve of COV- ID’19, with the 2020 Tigers losing by one in double overtime. This game would end up being the final game of the 2020 season and left a lasting burr in the saddle of the Tigers. Across town, the 2020 game is a favorite memory of multiple LT seniors. 03/17/2022 12:00 AM

DS Track meets competition head on

DS Track meets competition head on

After missing out on their own meet, the Dripping Springs track teams moved into a very tough level when they joined 14 other schools in the Round Rock Invitational. It had some of the better track schools in the area. When you get in a meet like this points are difficult to come by and split among the top individuals. Depth does not help unless they are really good. Mostly one is pushed to their limit producing personal bests and allows one to compare where they are out in their training. 03/17/2022 12:00 AM
