Crown Point won the meet with a score of 83. While it may be the end of the season for many of our athletes, they refused to go down without a fight. The Slicers scored top 8 finishes in 10 of 16 events. Our senior class has compiled a resume that puts them among the greatest Slicer Track & Field programs with a 4 year compiled record of 20-8 in the DAC, 2022 & 2024 Sectional Championships, a 2022 Regional Championship, numerous school records, state medalists, and a chance for more next weekend in Bloomington. They have left a lasting legacy on Slicer Track & Field, and It has been a honor to coach these athletes. The Slicers will travel to Bloomington next week to compete at the IHSAA State Championships next Saturday.
