The Middle School track team participated in their final meet and received six 1st places, four 2nd places, and five 3rd places. Our girls are League Champions.
Athletes to watch:
Julia Hanly improved her mile run from 6 min 12 sec to 5 min 49 sec. Her 1/2 mile is exceptional at 2 min 42 sec. Julia's running is magical. Besides the esthetics of her running form, one can see how focused and composed she is.
Anna Haddad can sprint, jump and do middle distances. This season she ran 100 m in under 14 sec and 400m in 67 sec.
Josh Oie is another multi athlete. Josh could sprint, jump, hurdle and run middle distance. This past season he won 75m hurdles and came 2nd on the 200m.
Troy Bailey is the best thrower on the team and came 3rd on the 400m.
Amhina Webb is also a multi athlete. She can sprint, but her real talent is high jump, where she became league champion.
There are also some very promising sprinters in sixth grade and great middle distance runners in seventh. I'm looking forward to seeing these exceptional athletes develop.
