2022 SECTION 2AAA BOYS TEAM CHAMPIONS
Our 4x400 Relay team ran an incredible time of 3:24.96, dropping almost 5 seconds from our previous season best to take 2nd place on Friday. We ended up 8 points short of a wild card spot for the True Team State meet.
We believe we are still one of the best teams in the state and we plan on proving that over the next couple of weeks as we enter Conference and Section Championships.
Final standings:
1st Place: Wayzata - 1020
2nd Place: Minnetonka - 928
3rd Place: Eden Prairie - 896

LAKE CONFERENCE PARTICIPANTS
Thanks to all who contributed
First (hope to be annual) Lake Conference Track and Field FMSC Challenge
On Saturday Morning, March 19, Track and Field athletes from across the Lake Conference gathered at the Chanhassen Feed My Starving Children site to participate in a packing session. Roughly 120 athletes participated along with many of their coaches. Thanks to their efforts, 112 boxes were packed. That equates to 24,192 meals feeding 66 children for a year. With the war in Ukraine, the demand has greatly increased, so this is a greatly appreciated effort.
Below are some photos of the fantastic participants in this event.
