The Flier track and field team spent two days last week competing in extreme South Dakota wind hosting the Lake Central Conference meet and traveling to Parker for the Big East Conference meet. This week, Flandreau was at Hamlin on Monday and then at the Last Chance Meet at Tri-Valley Schools on Thursday.
