DHS’s Girls Outdoor Track Team Prepares for A Great Season

by Rory Washecka

The Girls Outdoor Track team is one to watch for this spring.  Captains Laine Blummer, Grace Harmon, Niamani Williams-Coles, Mahogany Dolberry, and Sarah Hadlow are gearing up for a great season.  “We have a lot of talented, hardworking girls on the team, some who have just joined and others who are more experienced,” senior Alyssa Findlan said.  “I’m really excited to see what this season entails.”  The freshmen and others newer to track have been open to trying various track and field events and have shown great potential.  Both sprinters and long distance runners have been busy with drills, time trials, and difficult workouts to prepare for the busy season ahead.  Be sure to watch the girls at their first meet, which will be here at DHS on Tuesday, April 5th.
