The well known Bluebonnet Relays, featuring Varsity teams, will get underway Friday morning, March 5, at Gordon Wood Stadium in Brownwood. Due to COVID guidelines established by the UIL, no more than eight teams can compete in a meet which has led to the staggered starts.
Class 1 A-3 A schools will begin competing in field events at 9 a.m. and running finals at noon, while the Class 4 A-6 A schools start their field events at 4 p.m. and running finals at 7 p.m.
The small school division at 9:00 am will feature Bangs, Cherokee, Roscoe, San Saba, Eastland, Whitney and Brady.
Once those teams have cleared from the stadium, the large schools will compete including Brownwood, Brock, Graham, Harker Heights, Killeen High, Lampasas, and Stephenville and that will start at 4 p.m.
