TRACK AND FIELD- The 2017 girls track and field team poses with their state championship trophy and former head coach, Richard Swanker.

Coaches: Brandon Turner (Head), Kayla Charles, Brian Pellechia, Kyle Richhart, Jewel Rama, Richard Swanker

Weaknesses: Leadership, Throws, and Sprints

Outlook for the season: “I believe that we can have an excellent outdoor season. We lost some of the best runners the school had ever seen, so this year is certainly a rebuilding season in a sense. Still, we have multiple returning state medalists, and a great amount of talent. Developing toughness and leadership will be keys to successful season.”
