Laramie High School Competes in Two More State Championships
It’s another state championship weekend for Laramie High School student-athletes with girls’ indoor track and alpine skiing ending their season.
Laramie will take nine girls to the indoor track championships on Saturday in Gillette. They have three competing in individual events, while the other six are part of two relays that qualified. One relay, the 4x200, is a replacement for a team that was qualified but had to drop out.
Head coach Greg Schabron said they learned last week at boys’ state it is different in Gillette.
“Hearing how quiet the stands were, and there’s more energy when we had field events and running events going on at the same time, but it’s definitely different. Finding out that our 4x200 made it, there’s an energy that these girls bring that’s exciting.”
Laramie High School Competes at Three State Championships
It’s state championship weekend for three Laramie High School teams with Nordic skiing, wrestling, and boys’ indoor track attending culminating events.
The Wyoming High School Nordic Skiing State Championships and the Wyoming High School State Wrestling Championships are in Casper, while the Wyoming High School Indoor Track State Championships for the boys are in Gillette.

The state championships were split up this year due to COVID protocols. The boys’ and girls’ state meets are on separate weekends. First up, the boys on Saturday at the Campbell County Recreation Center.
