When the Fort Stockton 800-meter relay team took to the track for the first time this past season at the Comanche Relays on Feb. 27, the Panthers clocked a time of 1 minute 34.78 seconds.

For the junior’s first time at the big show, Mariana Sanchez showed why a state championship could be in the fold if all things go as planned next season on the track. Sanchez made her first appearance at the state track meet last Saturday in Austin in Class 1A and earned medals in both events she qualified for.
