Season outlook: For the last decade, both the Lisbon boys and girls have been the team to beat in the MVC. It will be more of the same as the nine-time defending conference champions go for No. 10. Helping the Greyhounds’ cause is a new track and field complex built by the support of Lisbon voters that will help the team’s training. MVC champions Andrew Golino (shot put and discus) and Mia Durgin (pole vault) return for the Greyhounds.
