Eustace High School hosted the District 18-3A track meet this past Thursday and Friday. There were four divisions that participated in the track meet: JV Girls, JV Boys, Varsity Girls, and Varsity Boys.

Overall, the Bulldogs and Lady Bulldogs did an awesome job! The JV boys and varsity boys both placed second in their divisions. The varsity boys were one point shy of winning the district championship. The JV girls and the varsity girls were both district champs in their divisions! Congratulations to all our Bulldogs and Lady Bulldogs on their outstanding performances at the district meet.

It takes a lot of preparation and hard work to host a successful track meet. I want to thank everyone that worked to ensure that this track meet ran smoothly and on time.

Congratulations to our softball team on picking up a win against Rice! Here is an update from our softball coach, Lauren Odom:

Your Lady Bulldogs got a huge district WIN over Rice last night! We played solid defense behind our freshmen RHP Brooklyn Moore who threw a NO HITTER with 12 strikeouts! Sophomore Alyssa Lane led us offensively going 2-for-4 at the plate.

This makes us 1-3 in district play! We are young with one senior, two juniors and starting five sophomores and one freshman. We are continuing to fight, compete and finish ball games. Thank you all for your continuous support of this program!
