Track tryouts took place this past Tuesday, Jan. 20 to Thursday, Jan. 22. Seventy-four athletes made the team, 47 boys and 27 girls. For tryouts, coaches Jason Newton and Ela Dineen had everyone compete in a variety of events.

Tuesday tryouts included hurdles, shot put, broad jumps, 2000 meter run and 100 meter dash. Wednesday, students had the 1000 meter run, 300 meter dash and a running broad jump. Since tryouts ran late on Wednesday, Thursday’s events included vertical jump and a short practice.

Official practice begins tomorrow, and there will be a parent meeting in the media center this Tuesday at 6:00 p.m. to discuss the upcoming season.
