Photo Gallery: SWC Track and Field Championship

A little water didn't stop these local teens from showing off their skills on the track Monday.

The South-West Conference high school boys and girls track and field championships were held at Bethel High School during an on-again, off-again rain storm. 

Patch was there to take photos. Anyone who has photos from the event to share can do so by clicking the button above.
