Trojans Track team off to 2 - 2 start.

Coach Barron's Boys and Girls track teams are off to a competitive and fast start to the Spring 2012 track season.  In the first two weeks of the Spring season the track teams have faced some traditional powers in the LHAC and have come out swinging for the fences, showing that the Trojans will be a force to come this year. 

The girls led by 4 year letterwinners Vicki Smothers and Lovazia Henry as well as some talented underclassmen have raced out to a solid start by blowing past Bishop Carroll and falling to traditional LHAC power Somerset in the first meet of the season.  In the 2nd meet of the season, the Lady Trojans doubled up Penn Cambria 100 to 50 but again fell in a tough contest to another traditional power, Westmont.  Vicki Smothers was a triple winner for the lady Trojans winning the 100M, 200M and the 4x400M relay.

On the Men of Troy side, they also have had some impressive showings early in the year.  The Men of Troy split both meets similar to their female counterparts by defeating the same teams as the girls.  In the first meet of the season the boys beat up on the Huskies of Bishop Carroll and lost a tight contest to Somerset.  In the second meet of the season the Trojans beat Penn Cambria for the first time in 7 years and fell to the Hilltoppers in another tight contest.  The Men of Troy were led by DaQuan Minter, Phillip Madison, & Elijah Haselrig, all winners in running events, and Brock Eisenhuth & Isaiah Triplie in the field events.

The Boys and Girls track teams face more stiff competition this week as the travel to Sidman to face the Rangers of Forest Hills and the Rams of Richland.  The girls will compete on Wednesday followed by the boys on Thursday.  Good Luck to both teams.
