McMurray Track and Field

 She's flying!

He missed 1st by a hair!  He did look over as he was running which may have made the difference.  He never ran the 100 again so I don't know how fast he was but on the relays he would fly.

Avery 2nd place at the podium for discus

 This year the kids decided to try out track since it was a short season due to covid.  They had an amazing season!  Avery tried discus, shot put, high jump, the 100 m dash and the 4x100.  He really enjoyed discus and the 4x100 and competed in those events in the championships.  He took 2nd in discus missing first by 1/4 of an inch and his team took first in the 4x100.  Alia tried the 400 m and the 100 m.  She ended up liking the 100 m dash the best.  In her last home meet she was 2nd in her heat, and the fastest 6th grader.  No 6th graders placed in the championships as it's hard to compete with 8th graders!  Both kids improved so much over the short season and came away liking track.
