Outlook: The girls’ team is in a rebuilding year, but appears to be one of the most promising teams in the past few years. New faces combined with the returning leadership make this team solid. The depth of this group should improve ranks in both conference and state championships. The boys’ team is in a rebuilding year, particularly in the distance and throws field. There are many new faces that look to contribute to improving the boys’ record in both the conference and state championships.
Coach’s comment: “There is no doubt that this will be a great season for the boys’ team; the returning leadership with the eager new faces create an amazing force. I am really looking forward to how far the team will go this season. The girls’ team is going to be very exciting to watch. With all disciplines well fielded this year, the team shows depth, and above all, lots of talent and determination. I look forward to seeing the success this team will have this season” — Coach Kristin Ross
