Summer Track AND FIELD - Get "Outside the Fence"...





_____________________
The Scioto Track Club summer track schedule began Tuesday, 31 May.  Practices alternate between Upper Arlington High School and Hilliard Davidson High School.  There WILL BE Hilliard and Dublin athletes at UA for these practices.  There WILL BE UA and Dublin athletes at Hilliard Davidson when practice is scheduled there.  

ALL athletes, regardless of where they live or go to school are welcome and encouraged to attend ALL practices that are convenient for them at both locations.

There is no fee for summer track - it is "pay as you go", meaning you pay only for your own expenses (entry fees, uniform, which is optional unless you're on a relay, and personal travel expenses.)  There is no fee to practice with the club.  All practices and meets are completely optional.  

All track athletes are encouraged to consider combined events, as well as the javelin throw.  These events are not offered in Ohio high school competition, but are nonetheless highly recruited by universities.  

We hope to see all of you out for summer track soon!

Our men's squad repeats as conference champions due to a tremendous TEAM effort!  With just a a 12 point margin of victory (170.5 - 158.5) over runner-up Dublin Coffman every point scored counted.  Thanks to every member of this team who reached inside himself when the time came to move up one more place, jump one more inch, or throw one foot farther.  Thanks to the members of this team who competed in events that perhaps wasn't their favorite because the team needed points in them.  Thanks to the team members who competed hard despite an injury or illness.  And thanks to the teammates who didn't compete but were there offering their support wherever needed.  These are the things that make championships.

Congratulations to our women's team on their runner-up finish in the OCC Conference Championship!  Despite a frustrating series of injuries and illnesses that have plagued this squad throughout this season they still put up 131 points for the second place finish.  Once again this would not have been possible without the extra efforts and individual sacrifices made for the team.
