Britt is one of the top middle distance runners in the District and STATE..
He will attend Lehigh next year on a Track Scholarship
Sophmore Zach Papscy .. Javelin
If he can stay healthy he’s one of the top throwers in the District
Senior Davina Jones.. Javelin …. one of the top throwers in the district with a very good chance to qualify for the State Championships.. right now she’s a member of the girls basketball team who are competing in the State Playoffs
Sophmore Rio Stoudt 800, 1600, 3200 , 4×400 .. she was a Stare Qualifier in Cross Country and has a chance to also qualify for the State Track Championships ..
Our Boy’s 4×100 and 4×400 Relay Teams should be very good with realistic chances of qualifying for the State Meet ..
Carlos Perez, Cayden Vassa , Carter Vassa , Jeziah Gregory, Jack Rushe, Zemi Rodriquez, Brandon Andrew’s along with Britt should be key contributors on those teams..
Key Newcomers:
Junior Football quarterback Cayden Vassa , Sophmore wide receiver brother Carter Vassa , sophmore running back Jeziah Gregory , along with a bunch of outstanding freshman and sophmore football players should also play a big part of this year’s team..
Freshman Nia Bush and junior Leah Ault both members of the girls basketball team should anchor down the girls sprinters.
Also Senior Ollesya Minorics .. shotput, javelin and discus will once again be our most versatile girls thrower..
2025 Outlook: We have good numbers this year 34 boys and 33 girls. Since we don’t have a track and are lucky Freedom allows us track time on their track we use the early meets especially as great practice opportunities..
If we can stay healthy we could have a very good District meet and Qualify quite a few athletes for the Srate Meet
We have alot of young Football players out who are very good athletes , we just have to bring them along and figure out where they fit in best.
