"I was pleased with the two meets we were able to string together at the end of the semester. The second meet is always incrementally more beneficial because our athletes are able to get into more of a rhythm, following the first meet. We have some new comers who just compete with a raw intensity, which they've partly learned from our upperclassmen. What a great way to being to pass along the torch and continue the strong legacy of building intensity with intensity," commented Coach Hager after the meet.
The track & field teams will be in action again on 1/21 at home in the Highlander Invitational.
