“We are doing well this year because of a team approach,” said Coach Reed Elmore. “We are a small team but at every meet you can hear us cheering for each other.  It is impressive that a small school like ours can rank athletes at both the state and the national level.  The team approach creates an atmosphere where all of our athletes have the opportunity to improve at each meet.”
