The spring track season for high school athletes is brutal -- cold, hot, and short. But athletes know to never mention the weather.
Many of the athletes from the GTD cross-country and all-sports summer programs participate in spring track. Many others play lacrosse, baseball, and volleyball in the spring. Maybe tennis? Here are some results from the spring track season. We apologize for missing so many. Congratulations to all.
