Managing to first pass and then keep Meeker High at bay during the anchor leg of the 2021 CHSAA State Track and Field Championships' Class 2A Boys' 4x400-meter relay, Del Norte's Tigers ranked 17th overall following the event's Day 2 preliminary heat races.

Del Norte's Kaeci Madrid clears the bar during last week's 2021 CHSAA State Track and Field Championships' Class 2A Girls' pole vault competition inside Jeffco Stadium in Lakewood.

Del Norte's Logan Cestone gets some San Luis Valley love from fellow Class 2A Boys' high jump entrant Ben Tailleur of Centauri during last week's 2021 CHSAA State Track and Field Championships inside Jeffco Stadium in Lakewood. Clearing a best height of 5 feet, 8 inches, Cestone tied Sedgwick County's Tate Dille for sixth place, earning the Tigers 3.5 team points toward an eventual grand total of 16.5, enough to earn 22nd place overall. Tailleur, meanwhile, managed to clear 5-6 and finished tied for 16th; the Falcon boys, however, would total 42 points and place fourth when all was said and done.
