Weather Threatens Gander Track Warmup Ahead of Texas City Meet
Cold weather shadowed the Gander track squad as they trimmed warmups and debated canceling the Texas City meet. Coach Beverly Rockhold weighed safety against competition, with forecasts predicting a hard freeze Saturday. If temps rise to the 50s or 60s with clear skies, the meet may proceed with Baytown entries in 14 events, including hurdles and sprints, while basketball players join in select events.
