Thanks to all our MS/HS track team members who took part in last Fridays twilight meet to conclude the local track season for this year. With Brent unable to host their usual meets this year, it has meant a reduced number of meets however the effort and enthusiasm for competition has certainly been on display at all the meets conducted at ISM this season.

Please be reminded that the IASAS teams will travel on Wednesday, April 11, and will return on Sunday, April 15.

Keep an eye out on the ATAC blog (latest news-HS/Latest news-MS) for more information after the break.
