Update from coach Rogers on May 29th.
This past weekend the boys and girls track & field team concluded their season with the 3A State Championships held at Morgan State. Both the Boys and Girls knew that it was going to be a close battle to achieve their goals of a Top 5 finish.
The Girls Team led by Senior, Imani Collins, and Sophomore, Adaobi Tabugbo, helped the girls finish 6th overall in the state. Only 11 points out of a top 3 finish. The girls had a phenomenal state meet. They crowned an individual champion and set two school records in the process.
The Boys team was also able to crown an individual champion in Senior, Kai Muniz, along with a Championship relay Team of Josh Bradford, Emmanuel Ibeh, Tyler Levons and Vincent Stevens. The boys team also broke two more school records. At the end of a long emotional weekend, the boys team came out as State Finalists (2nd in the state).
This was a great season for the boys and girls teams. We (Coaching Staff) are very proud of them! Here is a picture of the boys team after finishing 2nd in the state (this is who was left at 8:00pm on Saturday). Below is a list of the scorers at the State Championships.
