AA State Track and Field Meet 2009

Congratulations to BOTH of Brentwood School's Varsity Track and Field Teams-- Girls and Boys--for the absolutely PHENOMENAL performances at the three-day State Track Meet in Albany, GA April 30 through May 2. BHS is the AA state runner-up for BOTH BOYS AND GIRLS!!! Although this year we had a larger team than in the past- 30 members- the kids still had to work hard, focus, and remain healthy through a long season.

Boy had qualifying races on Thursday in the relays and the 100 meters and 200 meters.
Girl had her 800 meter race on Friday.
Boy had final races on Saturday.

Here are some photos--from day one and two. I don't have any photos from day three, as I missed many of the final races. We had to "sprint after the sprint"--Girl and her fellow teammate AND fellow ballerina Katrina, had an unchangeable dance recital on Saturday night, so immediately after Katrina ran in the finals of the 100 meter sprint, the three of us jumped in the car and "sprinted" the three hours back to Sandersville for the performance!!

Here are just a few shots of the 3-day meet...
