Last night was a good night of competition but a great night of community. We were able to honor a great man & his family. I hope the boys competing were able to see the importance of fathers & family and someday can contribute to the next generation like Coach Popenfoose did.
Happy
#MLKDay
. While we take a break from our normal Monday schedule to remember
#MartinLutherKingJr
and all the progress our country has made, let us also realize we have further to go & commit to moving towards a future where Dr. King's Dream is our reality.
Best day of practice so far this year for the sprint crew. 3 x 17 second drill.

We miss our school and our team... While thinking of what this year has become we started thinking back & while that in mind we proudly introduce our 2010s All-Decade Team (we would gladly take these 18 guys to any track meet)...
Congrats to Marengo boys track & field... 2nd place at sectionals with 5 1st place finishes and 8 event qualifiers, including
@bborhart5
who qualified in both hurdles and the 4x4... I'm glad I got to see it... Congrats!
Apart from all the COVID stuff, it was great to get outside for a track meet (1st time in over 21 months) and see the team compete! Can't wait to keep working with this group.
Thanks for having us over

9 of our 15 individuals that competed tonight got a PR & 1 got a SB... all 4 of our relays ran their best time of the year... I will miss the seniors, you guys always worked hard & did everything the coaches asked of you... for the guys coming back next year, the future is what
Proud of how our guys competed tonight at the McHenry County T&F meet.... took 3rd overall, 3 individual champions (LJ, 300 IH & 1600) & 1 meet record (1600... current IL

) keep working hard & good things will happen!
- 6 state qualifying events
- 11 PRs/SBs
- 4x1 top 3 in school history
- Discus top 4 in school history
- 4x2 top 6 in school history
- 800 top 8 in school history
- Some very painful misses and some seasons ended a week too soon.
Last night at Lakes, we had 20 individuals compete. 16 of them had season bests & 15 of those were PRs. Also, without running our "best" relays, 1 of them ran a season best. This group has worked hard so far & we can't wait to get outside soon! Thanks for having us
