“Each year, we have a number of seniors who graduate, but are fortunate to have a continual flow of talented athletes to keep our program moving forward” Peaco said. “This is a great problem to have.”
While Peaco has his sights set on winning the WPIALs and sending several students to the state championships, it is just as important that the athletes achieve personal bests, have fun and enjoy their high school track and field career.
Next up for the Raiders is a home meet against Butler, followed by an invitational at Butler and a 9-10 invitational meet at Seneca Valley.
