Norman standouts ready for Gregg Byram Track Classic

Norman’s Tanner Satterthwaite, the top-ranked 3,200-meter runner in Class 6A, will head a loaded field in the two-mile run at Saturday’s Gregg Byram Track Classic.

The meet, which is held at Norman High School, will feature a 3,200-meter race that includes the top four finishers from the 6A boys cross country state meet. Champion Victor Others from Ponca City, runner-up Toby Bothwell of Westmoore and Norman North’s Dustin Barrier are among those who will join Satterthwaite in the elite field.
