  Prospect wins sectional title May 10, 2013 12:00 AM
  It was a bittersweet night for Prospect girls track and field coach Dave Wurster. The Knights were 17 points better than WW South, 99-72, in the York sectional Friday, but the sectional team championship did not compensate for several near misses. "The sectional meet is always an emotionally weird night for a coach," Wurster said. "You get really excited for a few minutes and then you have to move on. There are always two or three events that you just miss in (qualifying). (The girls) work so hard and then their season is over."
