The 4 x 800 girls team after getting 3rd place in the region and getting a new school record.
On Saturday, May 10th, West Henderson traveled to their regional track meet. Our girls’ and guys’ 4 x 800 relay team qualified for state by placing third out of 16 teams. Our girls’ 4 x 800 team and their outstanding teamwork and perseverance led to a new school record of 9 minutes and 50 seconds. The team consisted of 4 people: Alysia Madera, Sawyer Manuel, Morgan English, and Amron Rice. “When we crossed the finish line and finished third, we all couldn’t contain our excitement, being able to break the school record and go to state was such a big deal to us because we’ve worked up to this moment all year long,” said Manuel.
