We got some good shots of WD footballs State Championship! Congrats boys! If you cant tell by all the retweets and likes, we are proud of you!
Proud of these three athletes and all athletes signing to further their athletic and academic careers! Track athletes
@blazethisplace4
, Sam Goodman, and
@Jsimonressler
set a great example as multi sport athletes. Thanks guys!
This acknowledgment represents the wonderful staff I get to coach with each and everyday helping to make a difference in our athletes lives. Wonderful staff, awesome athletes, better family.
W1N the DAY!
The state track meet is over. The bus is quiet. 3 months of hard work have culminated in a great weekend with fast times, 1 school record and 2 medals. More importantly these young men are better for having experienced the track life. Keep grinding fellas! Thanks
Proud to announce I will be furthering my academic and Track & Field careers at the University of Northern Iowa next fall. Special thanks to coach
@JeffCoover
and
@CoachPaulsen
for the opportunity. Go Panthers!
Big news for former Bobcat trackster Joe Frieburger! He is a national qualifier in the 5k and runs in Boston on Friday!!! Very proud of all your hard work Joe! Keep it up!
🚨SCHOOL RECORD ALERT🚨
DISTANCE MED goes 3:33.71 for our best time ever and 9th at the state meet! Very impressive! Shout out to Sam Goodman on a 1:57.64!
There is a reason Flash is the fastest and it has to do with knee drive. Batman's darn utility belt restricts his hip mobility. Also, Aquaman should stick to swimming. (Only track coaches check the running form on their kids action figures!)
This Decade brought us:
5 State Champs
2 Drake Titles
3rd place Team Finish
5th Place Team Finish
12 School Records
5,023 Personal Bests
And these All-Decade events:
