Track is coming up pretty fast at South Middle School.
The fun begins at the end of February for seventh and eighth graders. Track can be hard, but it's so much fun. Track athletes compete in numerous events, including 100 meter dash, 200 meter dash, 400 meter dash, 800 meter run, 1600 meter run, 4 x 100 relay, 4 x 200 relay and 4 x 400 relay. Also available for athletes are other events, including hurdles, pole vaulting, high jump, long jump, shot put, and discus. Athletes may compete in up to four events.
South has three coaches, Coach Rocky Biggers, who teaches at South, Coach Adrien Hedley, who teaches at an elementary school, and Coach Jason Veisselmeyer. Coach Biggers coaches field events, Coach Hedley coaches the distance runners, and Coach Veisselmeyer coaches the sprinters.
