The Washington Demon girls’ track team will get their first taste of competition this afternoon. Washington is hosting their annual Demon Indoor Invitational this afternoon and tomorrow on the campus of Cornell College in Mount Vernon.

The yearly event begins with the girls’ meet, and the teams competing include: Anamosa, Cedar Rapids Prairie, Cedar Rapids Xavier, Central Lee, Clayton Ridge, Davenport Central, Des Moines Lincoln, Iowa City High, Iowa City Regina, Iowa City West, Linn-Mar, Mount Vernon, Solon, and Williamsburg.

Head girls’ track coach Stefanie Tschantz says she sees this opening meet as a glorified practice, “(We use it) just to change things up, run on a nice track and run hard.” Tschantz said, “I don’t expect record breaking times, I just want them to run hard.”

The first events of the 2015 Demon Indoor Invitational are set to begin at 3 p.m. at Cornell College in Mount Vernon. Tune in to tomorrow’s sports page for results.
