Members of the Mingus Union High School track and field team traveled south May 16 to participate in the annual Arizona Meet of Champions.
At Brophy College Preparatory in Phoenix, the dismal Valley sun was a nonfactor since the meet didn’t begin until shortly after 6 p.m. under the lights.
More than 100 schools registered for the massive event, ranging from the very top in Division I programs like Hamilton, Mountain Pointe and Chandler high schools to Division IV mighty mites like Northwest Christian, Phoenix Christian, Arizona Lutheran and Valley Christian high schools.
