Line To the Finish

An impressive season emerged from the boys track team this year. With over 120 athletes, there was a lot of skill amongst them. “I think this year and with this team we have the tal ent, mental mindset, chemistry and athleticism to be some thing special, something great this year,” Izaiah Loveless ‘24 said. With the motivation of their teammates, the team put in hard work to improve and reach their full potential. “We rely on our core athletes, who stand out for their leadership and also their efforts on and off the track and field,” Head Coach Ty Craig said. Reliability upon each other helped make the effort easier. “If anyone needs help training or with anything outside of practice everyone on the team is willing to help,” Loveless said. A promising milestone was set when the boys qualified 11 events in the Drake Relays and took home the win in the Distance Medley Relay with a team of Izaiah Loveless ‘24, Todd Rent ‘24, Aidan Jacobsen ‘24, and Moustafa Tiea ‘25. As the season came to an end, the team took fifth place overall and won in six separate events at state, taking home lots of memories and even some lessons. "We want to provide every senior [with] a great last experi ence. We want to emphasize the end of the season to be at our best and most competitive,” Craig said.
