Concordian Dragons Shine
Athletics News
at Track & Field Meet with Varsity Victory and True Team Spirit
This year’s track and field season has been an especially
busy one for our student-athletes. With exams, performances, service projects, clubs, and a packed calendar of extracurricular commitments, simply showing up consistently has taken real discipline. And yet, despite the intensity of the year, the Concordian Dragons track and field team pulled together in the best way possible—bringing focus, positivity, and genuine togetherness to competition day. From the moment the team arrived, our athletes set the tone with outstanding effort and attitude. Whether warming up, competing, or cheering from the sidelines, students demonstrated the kind of team spirit that makes track and field special. It’s a sport made up of individual events, but on the day it was clear: we competed as one team. Athletes encouraged each other between races, shared advice, celebrated personal bests, and kept the energy high throughout the meet. A special congratulations must go to the Varsity team for earning an overall victory. This result reflects a collective willingness to push through tough moments. The win is something to be proud of—but even more powerful was how it was achieved: with commitment, resilience, and a team-first mentality.
We would also like to recognize the athletes who stepped into unfamiliar territory—students who volunteered to run, jump, or throw in events they had not trained for, simply because the team needed them. That kind of courage takes real guts. It embodies what we hope to celebrate in Concordian athletics: stepping up for others, taking on challenges with humility, and giving your best no matter the circumstance. While the Varsity trophy is a fantastic highlight, the bigger story is that the Concordian Dragons showed up as a true team. None of the day’s success would have been possible without every athlete’s involvement—every event entered, every point earned, every cheer, every act of support, and every decision to keep trying. Track and field is built on small moments of effort that add up, and our students proved that when everyone commits, something special happens. Congratulations again to all athletes who competed and contributed. The Dragons should be proud—not only of the outcome, but of the character and unity they displayed along the way. Coach Bjorn
