Second Season, First Meet

Special congratulations to the following for setting Nighthawk team records: Josh Springfield (both shot put and discus), Maria Lundy (100m), Jacob Binsfeld (100m), Gus Spencer (200m), and Drake Fraser (3200m). Also congratulations to Erika Swanson for meeting the State Honor Roll standard in the 3200m. Lots of PR's out there, too. Looking forward to a great season!

Track Time

One big improvement this season is more on-the-track time. Super thankful!

Fieldhouse

Riding arena by day, shot put fieldhouse by night... We told the runners they could simulate beach running if they didn't mind dodging the shot. Kidding. Sure would be nice to see the sun after all this cloudy weather, though!

Rolling

The face pretty much sums up early-season soreness...

Bagging for Tips

Grocery bagging fundraiser at Cub Foods in Rogers. Two shifts of three hours each, and a great success. Thanks to all student-athletes and parents for serving, and thanks to the shoppers who were so generous with us!

2017 Track & Field: First Day!

Ahh, Minnesota in March. The first day of the 2017 Track & Field season was mentally tough running indoors, but this crew was on it. I have to say how impressed I was with the overall positivity out there! Of course I was too busy to think about taking pictures during the run, so you'll have to take my word for it. What does the t-shirt say, "Our sport is your sport's punishment"--or is it "Your sport is our sport's cool down"? :D O.K., we do have a few basketball players and other sharp-shooters on the team, and the rest were good sports about picking up a lively game of Lightning at the tail-end of practice. And first-day juice boxes for all. :) Thanks to everyone for being patient and flexible with these early day-to-day changes!

2017 Track & Field Registration is now open!
