RUNNING DEVILS TRACK AND FIELD RESULTS

After the past few weeks, having experienced rain, snow, sleet and ice, we couldn’t have asked for better weather – sunny and warm – for the first track meet of the 2015 season!!  Like many of the spring athletes at Elkmont, the track team has not been able to get much practice time outside, where the runners can stretch out their stride and the throwers can let those cannons loose.  Instead, they could be found in the gym performing “boot camp” style drills to work on both strength and cardio. 

Their first meet was on Monday, March 16 at Muscle Shoals High School.  Muscle Shoals has a very nice facility that has been upgraded in the past couple of years and sports a turf infield, superb jumping pits and a modern resurfaced rubber track.  There were 13 schools participating and the Elkmont women’s team placed 10^th and the men’s team placed 8^th.
