The West Central Valley boys track team is into their second week of practice. Head coach Tony Hooper says they’re never sure if they’ll be able to make it outside, but they’re still finding a lot to do. “The weather is always an issue at this time of year. We stayed inside last week and worked on power and acceleration stuff. We set up our in-season workouts in the weight room and worked on a lot of core strength. The distance runners try to work up some volume and the sprinters work on acceleration and form drills.”

The Wildcats have plenty of time to practice, there is nearly a month before their first competitive meet.
