The track team entered its second year of AAA competition with two new coaches and a number of new runners. Mr. Cotter and Mr. March worked together with returning Coach Brady to develop a strong team. All three coaches put a lot of time into after-school practices, guiding the runners through a variety of drills and skills to perfect technique. There were a total of seven meets, three of them taking place at Marana. Along with the regular meets, there were also invitationals and finals. Students and parents came out to watch the meets, spurring the runners on. Each runner was allowed to compete in up to four events. Besides running, there were pole vaulting and long-jump events. Discus and shotput captured the interest of some other track members. All in all, the team pulled together to make the season a good one.
