A gun shot set track OFF AND RUNNING n the ground, running around in the air, every- where. The track team was faster than speeding bullets and able to leap tall hur- dles in a single bound. The shot of a gun triggered the team ' s spiked, winged shoes that flew them to success. The girls ' team finished the season with a first place trophy from the Lady Longhorn Relays and a second place finish at the JV District meet. They excelled in all events from shotput and discus district champ, Paige Ashley, to high jumper Angela Thompson, down to all the relay, dash, and run winners. Knowing people from school, friends, and family are watching me makes me want to do well, Christen Campos said. She competed in 800 relay, mile relay, 400 meter run, and the long and triple jump. With Jason Scott as the district dis- cus champ, and Chris Kent undefeat- ed in the 110 high hurdles, the boys ' team couldn ' t help but succeed also. They received first place in the 14- AAAA JV District Meet as well as the Mesquite and Rockwall Relays. We were successful this year be- cause we worked really hard at prac- tice, Jason Mollis said. On the way to a third place win, Sherryl McCullough flies over a hurdle. She was one of the many students who excelled in track.
