GREEN RIVER — Green River High School’s track and field meet scheduled for Wednesday, April 29, has been postponed and rescheduled for May 8.

The meet, which is the Wolves’ only home competition of the season, will now take place later in the schedule, shifting an opportunity for the team to compete on its home track.

The delay comes as Green River builds off its performance at last weekend’s Ted Schroeder “Meet of Hope” in Rock Springs, where the Wolves placed fifth in the girls standings with 70 points and third in the boys standings with 69.50.
