Stirling stars as Montana meets crowd at Missoula track meet
At a Missoula meet between the Bruins and the Bobcats five state records fell or nearly did as Jack Stirling dominated the day. He won four events and lowered the Montana marks in the 100 and 220 yard dashes as well as the 120 yard high hurdles. Stirling’s performance was highlighted by his near-miss in the mile hurdles and his aim to push for Pasadena and the Olympic squad, with other Bobcats and Grizzlies showing strong showings in pole vault and throws. The event drew a smaller crowd than the state interscholastic meet but still showcased top Montana track talent.
