Wild Ride for TJ Track

April 13, 2008

Track starts the season well but has begun to feel the pressure in their later meets.

By Phillip Karlberg

Despite the loss of momentum that seemed to take place for the track team after its initial success, the Spartans are beginning to regain their momentum with success at both the Englewood and TJ meets.
    The Guys’ team showed impressive strength at Elizabeth.  Jared Lewis took first in the 100-meter race and Efrum Woldu took 2nd in the 400-meter race.  In the discus, Vince Crespin took 9th and Andrew Brown took 10th out of about 50 competitors. The boys 4×100 relay team took first in their event and their 4×800 relay team took third.
    The girls did not do quite as well in their first meet, taking 11th overall.  They did take first in the 800-meter relay but again were only somewhat successful in their second meet, taking 19th place out of 22 teams.
    The program still is optimistic about the year.  “The season has been going very well for us this year, out of the four years I have been here, this is the best line-up I've seen.  We have a good chance to take a lot of runners to state,” Senior runner Ben Gilliland commented.
    “The season has been going alright, it's been tough because we have had some problems with illness and grades. It has been going very well for those who have been working hard to compete,” explained Junior Vince Crespin.   Read more
