The Alpine Cowboys are back in the saddle and aiming for a championship run in the 2024 Pecos League season. With a revamped roster, a new assistant coach, and a burning desire to reclaim their glory, the Cowboys are poised to be a dominant force on the field.

Just as they did previously in Crane at the District meet, the Alpine Lady Bucks track and field team has trampled their competition at the Area meet with a total score of 145 points. That’s 76 points ahead of the second-place finisher Muleshoe and 77 points ahead of the third-place team of Denver City. This makes the Lady Bucks track and field team fourtime Area champions in 3A District 4.
