On April 21, the Frenship High School Boys and Girls Track Team competed in the Area Meet hosted at Ratliff Stadium. For the second year in a row, the Varsity Girls took home the Area Championship title, marking an undefeated track season where the Girls have outmatched every team they’ve competed against this year.
“These young ladies have been focused from the start on what they wanted to accomplish this year and I think it shows by their successes from beginning to end. They are undefeated as a team and have won every meet they have been to up until now,” said Stefani Shortes, FHS Girls Head Track and Field Coach. “Their motto is ‘Our MINDS3T! Our V1CTORY!’, and they have stood by that way of thinking all year.”
In addition to the Girls Team earning the overall Area Championship title and the Boys Team coming in as the runner-up, the Girls and Boys individually were Area Champions in nine events. Total, 16 members of the Girls Team and 10 from the Boys are advancing to the 6A Region 1 Track and Field Meet on April 28-29 hosted at UT Arlington.
