Oxford’s track teams opened the 2013 season with a bang as both squads won Saturday’s Oxford EAGLE Invitational meet held at Bobby Holcomb Field. The Chargers more than doubled up second-place finisher West Bolivar (220-98) to win first place, while the Lady Chargers finished with 157 points, 25 more than second-place finisher Independence.
West Bolivar (131), Pontotoc (130) and Lafayette (56) finished third, fourth and fifth in the girls division. Pontotoc (95), Cleveland-East Side (83), Independence (67) and LHS (57) finished three through six on the boys side.
Chris Bush, coaching the Chargers in his first year, was pleased with the results in the first meet.
