The WarEagle track season has come to an end. Our kids did great today, just didn’t quite make the top 2 that advance to state. Just advancing to Sections is a great accomplishment!

Goal #1. Improve participation numbers each year. ✅
Goal #2 All of our kids become a better athlete than they came in ✅ (numbers don’t lie!!!)
Goal #3 All athletes PR during the season ✅
Goal #4 Advance more kids to sections than the previous season. ✅
Next goal is breaking through and getting kids to State! That goal is not far away! I know this group will stay hungry and get to work right away!

But, more importantly than how we finish at a meet, our athletes learned important life skills (whether they realize it yet or not) that they can carry with them going forward, such as self discipline, the importance of working hard, battling through adversity, mental toughness, setting small goals to achieve a bigger goal, the ability and knowledge to be healthy into adulthood, plus many so many other things.

As coaches we are very proud of all of our athletes.

Thank you to our 4 seniors, Ari Schjenken, Caitlynn Hemphill, Ian Benham and Ashlyn Schwarz. We wish you the best in your next step in life!

Go WarEagles!
