As we’ve reported, the West Central Valley boys track team continues to use their spring break week to recover from injuries. Head coach Tony Hooper says many athletes have minor injuries, such as shin splints, but he doesn’t believe being a long or short distance runner has much to do with greater chance of injury. “It’s somewhat of a mixture of athletes, honestly. I don’t know if I could definitively say, it just seems like some people are a little bit more prone to injury.”

The Wildcats will return to organized practice on Monday.
