Track & field athletes that were not in a Winter sport at Greene County High School, have had a few workouts in the hallways. With warmer weather forecast for the upcoming week, it’s possible practices could be held outdoors. Boys’ head coach Chad Morton expects those out for Winter sports to report to practice this week. Raccoon Valley Radio asked the coach if the drop by Class 2A from 3A for the postseason makes a difference to him. “You’ve got to compete as hard as you can. If you give 100% it doesn’t matter if it’s in 3A or 2A, it’s 100 percent, and that’s what we’re going to try to get out of the athletes. It doesn’t really matter to me whether we’re 3A or 2A, I just want to get the most from our athletes, and want to add success to our program.”

Coach Morton is seeking input from his athletes as to the events he may have them compete in. “Right now, I want to see what the athletes want to do. I have them filling out goal sheets, and listing events they’ve done in the past and their PR’s (Personal Records). We’ll look at our team as a whole and we want kids to do what they want to do, but sometimes that doesn’t always work out. We do want them feeling like they get something out of the deal as well as far as what they’re going to compete in. It’s really about getting everybody better and having as strong a team as we can.”

The Rams have three indoor meets on the schedule next month before opening the outdoor season on Monday, March 26 in Jefferson at Linduska Field at the Greene County Early Bird Meet.
