LCC Track Meet

(Junior Trevor Cassels clears the hurdle in the boys 110 meter hurdles.)

The track team competed in the LCC meet in Hayti on Tuesday. The team did pretty good. They had many people place and some people even qualify for state. The weather wasn't the greatest, which is alright. There were also school records that have been broken this year. The girls 1600 meter relay on Tuesday broke the school record. That's pretty cool to think that our team is able to break records and to qualify for state. The track season isn't very long. It is over with before you know it. We had a few meets cancelled because of the weather. The meets that we have been to though, people have done well. On Saturday the track team will be traveling to Britton for the NEC meet. The meets are my favorite to go to. A reason why is because of the people you get the opportunity to meet new people and you are able to compete in your events. It is also very fun to watch the other teams, because at practice all you see is how your team is. At the meets you can see what the other teams are like. It gives us chance to see where we need to improve and to make our times even better. I think that track is a great sport to have in the spring, because it brings you right to the end of the school year. I think that the individuals that made it to state or the ones that will be making it to state will do very well. I think that this track season has gone swell and that they will finish the year off strong.
