March 16, 2016
The harsh winter has finally come to an end, and now Leonardtown’s spring sports can finally start up. Tryouts for all spring sports were on March 1st, with a great turnout in each sport; unfortunately, that means that some cuts will have to be made. In all, it looks like this will be a good year for our spring sports teams.
Track and field had a great turnout this year, but due to the large numbers of folks trying out, there were a few cuts that had to be made for both girls and boys.“The team has already gone in full throttle with the intense workouts to get the team ready for their first meet, lying only three weeks away.If the team is able to keep up that same vigor and energy through the season, odds are looking great for Leonardtown to take home the gold this year.
