Track Team to Open Season at Buena Vista
The Faith Eagles track team will kick off the 2013 season with a trip to the Beaver Invitational hosted by Buena Vista University on Saturday, April 6. The Eagles restart their track program this year with the help of several talented underclassmen lead by freshman Elizabeth Hemsworth. Elizabeth has the potential to qualify for the national meet in the 100m, 200m, and 400m races. She may have company at nationals as Cooper Rodman will attempt the qualify in the 400m, 800m, and 1,500m, Kevin England has the ability to qualify in the 1,500m and 5,000m, and Hannah Nichols is hoping qualify in the 800m despite not competing prior to this season. The team is filled out with Jonathan Dupea in the distance events and Derek Wilcox in the sprints.
