T racks ters win with mixture of heart, soul Starting out with a great performance at the Eagle Re- lays in Luling, the boys var- sity track team went into the season backed by the inspi- ration it needed. The next few weeks, espe- cially at Taylor, were trying and left the young team un- sure of what to expect in the season to come. The team had no problems in the jumping events or dis- tance, but the relay events proved to be the obstacle which slowed the team. The team carried on high hopes of living up to the past record of going to the regional final. The team pulled together for the Cardinal Relays and gave the home crowd a good show- ing. Winning was the final re- ward, but behind the scenes were strong bonds of friend- ship which held the team to- gether through trying times. You just didn ' t join track to become an instant success. I realized that it was because of my friendship with other track members that helped me to become a better run- ner, junior Jimmy Ar- rendondo said. The team remained com- petitive and proved that it took just as much heart as skill to win. With a look of determination, junior Vance Forador ' bounds his way to a first place.
