  NEW FEATURE!   Many of you may not have even known it, but you have long had the ability on this site to tag yourself or your athletes in a photo.  It was kind of complicated to use though and you couldn't tag others.  Now though, we've made it really easy!

• 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.

• 2013 D2 West Region Track & Field Meet Review

  

  Memphis University School campus was the home for some very exciting few days of Track & Field this week.  Tuesday started out with the field events, a four thirty start for the Women high jump, triple, discus, pole vault and the men’s shot and long jump.  The remaining events started at around six thirty, but the men’s pole vault didn’t start till Wednesday, just before the prelims and 3200 finals.

• Northeast girls take first at sectional

  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. It was a strong night for coach Christina Webb’s team but still disappointing knowing one place better in any one event could have proven the difference in taking first.(via www.theleafchronicle.com)

• 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.
