In addition to the football and basketball research I’ve done for Wyoming, I have also begun to dig into Wyoming’s track and field records. In theory, this project of finding +/- 8,000 individual and relay champions is an easier project than 23,000 football games. Thanks in part to the records posted by the Wyoming High School Activities Association, I’ve gotten a great start.

But last names won’t be enough. I need some help. Specifically, I’m looking for first names of the individual state champions below. If you can help, leave a comment below or email me at pschmiedt@yahoo.com.

I’d love to do more of this research, but being in North Dakota will make this type of work difficult. So I’m relying on my readers for help. Scour microfilm, look in old yearbooks, whatever… Just help a guy out. I will appreciate it for life!

Champions with missing first names are listed below, separated by gender, then by event and classification; the year of their championship and their school abbreviation accompanies their name. Some athletes have their first initial; others don’t. Records for boys go back to 1974; for girls, 1973 (the year of the first girls state track meet).

Updated 4/6/14: The original list was getting hard to read with all the strike-throughs. So here’s a cleaned-up version of what I still need. (To see what I need by school, check at the end of the comments.) I have preserved the original list, with the strike-throughs, below this one.

This list updated 8:52 a.m. 5/28/14.

    Hey Patrick!

    4A 800. 1979 is Tim Daniel from Riverton. I think the 3A is Wes Pinney from Powell.

  7. Devin Davis on January 28, 2014 at 8:46 pm said:

    4A Discus 1985 Rod Tyson 1984 Dave Edeen. 4a Girls TJ 1983 Kristy Norris. It’s Stacy Barraclough from Riverton in several hurdle event. Tracy Befus in the 1600 4A 1984. Julie Trouchon on 3A 1979 200. Beecher Strube 4A pole vault 1985. Blaine Gilliland 4A 300 hurdles 1984. I also think that’s him in the 2A 110 hurdles. He moved to Riverton from Wind River. I think that’s it for now. Will look over it again sometime.
