KATELYN SMITH PROVINCIAL TRACK
Congratulations to Katelyn Smith who finished 5th, in the 1500, at the ASAA Provincial Track Championship, in Edmonton, last Saturday. Katie qualified for the championship by winning the South Central Zone Championship last week. She ran the 1500 in 5:16.77. While it was not a personal best, it was 5 seconds better than her zone time. Congratulations to this outstanding athlete and student. This is the 5th provincial championship Katie has participated in during her two years at Chestermere. We look for more great results, for Katie, in her senior year in 2017-2018.
