When Greene County’s track & field squads left Manson on Thursday night, they knew the boys had won that Class 2A State Qualifying Meet and the girls had tied for eighth place. They also knew six boys’ events and two for girls had automatically qualified for the May 20-21-22 Coed State Meet in Des Moines at Drake Stadium.
