It was the Wolverines final home meet of the season and they also honored five senior track athletes.
“It was tough competing after a long break. Some kids did will, and others did not perform as strong as they have since last meet. I am confident our team will rebound to top form when we get to region in a week,” coach Steve Green said.
Coach Green added, “I want to thank all the parents and volunteers for their contributions to host track meets at Dade County. There are larger schools with more resources that cannot run track meets. We have a great community for this sport.”
The seniors that were honored on Senior Day were Raegan Page, Jack Dupree, Paul Allen Phillips, Braylon Sullivan, and Solomon Doe.
