They did it! Congrats to the Lady Marauders track and field team on winning yesterday’s conference championship! With standout performances by Trinadee M., Sofia C., Bella S., Grace T., Callie R., Isabelle I., Raven P., and the dynamic duo of Skylar and Tori, the team powered their way to victory. Could we please have you ladies come on down to the office for a picture after announcements.
Speaking of Tori - her brother, Joe, was on fire! He closed out the mile with a phenomenal 300m kick and also took home the win in the 800m. Incredible effort!
Kane P., Bentley N., Todd F., and Christian C., all stepped up to help position the team for a dual championship. While the boys came up just short, finishing 2nd overall, it was still a fantastic season. Great job team!
There is no practice today, but Coach Snyder asks you to check your email later on for updates.
Once again congratulations to all of the track athletes and ladies come on down to the office!
