From JH Track Coach Polley – Junior High track had a challenging year this year. No one on the team had ever competed in track because they did not get to have a season last year. I am so proud of everyone who came out for track and tried new things! Shealyn Pliley placed at every meet in shotput and disc. Levi Youtsey also placed at every meet in shotput and did great in the long jump also. Everyone stuck through a very rainy and cold season! I am so proud of them all for sticking it out. I can’t wait to see what next year holds.
