The Track Team Outdoors= The First Sign of Spring at SMS!
Of course the weather at the end of the winter sports season was conducive for outdoor basketball practices, but once track season commences the weather forces 220+ students to begin training indoors, a lot! Have no fear though- our team of great track coaches makes the best of it and will have all of the runners, jumpers and throwers ready for the rigors of an intense track season!
PS- The first meet is 3/28. The boys are in North Royalton and the girls are home versus North Royalton (the schedule is linked further down in the newsletter).
