Track & field ready for big spring season – The Index
After a dominant winter season that saw two school records fall and multiple athletes qualify for top competitions like the Pennsylvania State Championships and Nike Indoor Nationals, the track and field team is set for an exciting spring. The team is preparing for major meets, including the historic Penn Relays, where they will compete against top high school programs from across the country.
“It feels great, an adrenaline rush. It makes me feel happy when the gun goes off.” They also have their sights set on strong performances in the Inter-Ac and PAISAA Championships.
“This year’s team is one of the best we’ve ever had,” Sixth Form sprint and relay standout Ahijah Goins said. Goins, along with teammates Third Former J.R. Hawkins and Fourth Formers Isaiah Bond and Haven Hoilet, will be key in events like the 4x200 and 4x400 relays, both of which have the potential to break school records.
“It feels great, an adrenaline rush. It makes me feel happy when the gun goes off,” said Sixth Former Colin Campbell Williams, a top competitor in the 200 and 400 meters. With depth across sprints, jumps, and relays, Haverford is positioned for a strong season, hoping to add more records and championship titles to an already historic year.
