Track & Field

Weekly Update April 14-21


Thank you to everyone who helped make the Otter Invite a success.  We had many season and personal best times, distances and heights, even in the cold.  We have a location change and possibly a date change to our meet this week.  We will be traveling to Park Rapids instead of Cold Spring.  There is a possibility that the meet will be moved to Thursday for a better chance at nice weather.  As of now we plan for Tuesday, and watch your remind messages closely this week.
