COEUR d’ALENE — Ivy Smith won the shot put and discus, Gracie Amick the long jump and Sandpoint’s girls lead by nine and a half points after the first day of the 4A Inland Empire League district championships held at Coeur d’Alene High on Thursday.

Izzy Davidson was second in the pole vault, clearing 9 feet and 6 inches for the first time. The Bulldogs were second in two relays and picked up four third place finishes, which puts them comfortably ahead of both Lakeland and Moscow heading into Day 2.
