AAA Section 4 Meet Review
With some semi tall buildings surrounding the track, the old architecture of the buildings, the full wall mural overseeing the venue, the Section 4 sectional had a nice tight knit feeling. Crump stadium was recently renovated and the track resurfaced to make for a very nice location to hold a high level competition. The prelims and field events were completed over the previous Monday and Tuesday evening’s setting up to see who will be the final athletes to stamp their ticket to Murfreesboro.
TRACK TEAM STATE BOUND

Not many schools are equipped facility-wise or fortunate enough to host an event such as the TSSAA sectional qualifying track and field meet, but Rhea County High School [RCHS] welcomed over 20 other schools for Tuesday’s competitions. RCHS not only hosted, but 10 Eagle track team members advanced to the TSSAA state track and field meet to be held on the campus of Middle Tennessee State University [MTSU] in Murfreesboro, Tenn., from Wednesday, May 22, through Friday, May 24.

Last season, Northeast’s girls track team were three points shy of one of its major goals of the season. The Lady Eagles finished second in the team standings in the sectional track meet.

West TN D2 Pentathlon and Decathlon Review
Some states contest the Decathlon & Pentathlon during larger weekend meets. I remember going to a Track meet last year in April in upstate New York and the meet started at 11am on a Thursday morning with the Pentathlon & Decathlon and finished Saturday around 2pm with the regular schedule. According to the athletes, you got out of school early on those days if you were a multi-eventer – an incentive for sure, but it was a tough ticket to get if you were on the track team. The multi’s were reserved for the best of the best on the team. Athletes that possessed the drive, the strength, the speed, and the stamina to handle multiple events over either the one or two days were the ones that got the nod to compete.
