GarPal Colton coach, Patti Green-Kent, said GarPal Colton had another great showing at their 2nd district meet of the season, Friday, March 30, in Clarkston, Wash. The weather cooperated with just a little rain/snow and wind, but not too bad. 8 teams competed at the meet: Waitsburg/Prescott, DeSales, Asotin, Pomeroy, Walla Walla Valley, Garfield-Palouse/Colton, St. John-Endicott/LaCrosse-Washtucna; & Tekoa-Oakesdale/Rosalia.
