H.H.S. THE BOOMERA-XXG 1925 T RACK M EX ' Seated: Meengs, Siersma, Breen. Meyer. Martin. Klaasen. Y Second Row: vMr. Hartman, Mersma, Tysse. Suuters. Yan Duren, Yan XYezel. Third Row: kan Ark, Michmerhuizen, Meengs, Rolean, Hamburg, Exo. Schaap. Track Team A new feature in athletics has heen started this past year and under the supervision of Coach Hartman. shows a promising future. Track is somewhat different than other athletics, such as football or basket ball. There is no way that the team can cover up the defects of an individual man. lt is up to the person himself whether he is going to win or lose his particular event. The first attempts of the track men were shown in the Hlnterclass Track Meet held before spring vacation at which the Juniors won. After spring vacation these men with new competitors practiced every night. Here Coach Hartman worked with them and showed them their weak points. April 11, the team had a dual meet with a much older team, South Haven. Here the team not only received a taste of defeat but it also received experience which helped very much later on. The final score was 78 to Z9 in South Haven's favor. Two weeks from this date, Holland was ready to meet our old rival Grand Haven. This was also Grand Haven's first year of track so there was an equal match. Here the men showed what they were made of and won from Grand Haven 79 to 46. This was counting 5 points for first man, 3 for second, and l for third. Plans are being made for some of the men to go to the state meet at Kalamazoo May 9, The men are Capt. Meyers, Breen, Exo. De Boer and Meengs. Prospect for the next year's team are very good. although Capt, Meyers, point man in sprints, and De Boer. best high juniper, graduate. The team will miss these men very much but Breen will step in the shoes of Meyers and with Exo, weight man, and Souters, pole vaulter and broad jumper. a promising future is in view. The team owes a lot to Coach Hartman for his coaching. Most of the men had never even seen a track meet and so knew very little about any of the events. Hart- man stepped right in, worked with the men, and turned out a team. 103
