Track+competes+in+first+meet+at+Liberty

On March 23, boys’ and girls’ track meets took place at Liberty. It was the first meet in this season, and for many girls and boys it has started successfully.

GIRLS
The girls’ team took the third place out of 13 competing schools. Coach Chris McCullough was very satisfied with his team’s first performance.
“We were very happy to finish third. All the schools were very competitive,” said McCullough.
The top result was shown by freshman Kiosha Bailey.
“It  was scary at first. I thought it was gonna be hard, but it wasn’t. I have a lot of confidence now,” said Bailey.
But the team is not going to stop at this point. Their main goal now is to keep improving as a team, to develop the skills they already have, and to reach high results in this season.
“We have very talented girls on the team. Our goal is to finish at the top at the conference,” said McCullough.

BOYS
The boys’ first meet didn’t finish as successfully as many competitors wanted to.  Boys’ track Coach Jason Agee encourages his team to concentrate on positive things and to keep working hard.
“I want them to stay positive when bad staff happens, and keep together,” said Agee.
For senior Tucker Seise this meet was very memorable; he set his personal record.
“It’s a good spot to start with. This season I’m going to work more on my pace,”  Seise said, sharing his feelings.
This year the team is very young. There are only six seniors on the team. They help younger boys to improve and reach high results by giving advice and instructing them, when they have questions.
“The younger boys did really well. It was a good start for the first meet,” said senior Eli Warren.
The team’s main goal is to progress and improve with every practice and every meet.
“We worked really hard, and each of us had a personal best. Next time we’ll be trying even harder,” said senior Sam Riley.
