On to State!

 One of the greatest things that you can do in high school sports is go to a state event. Whether its baseball, football, basketball, track, or wrestling, it is one of the most gratifying feelings to be able to go to a state event and compete with the best people in high school. This year I personally have made it to state in football and just recently track. Football to me is a little easier to make it in. It's tough don't get me wrong, but as a team you have a better chance. Now in track its a completely different thing. Most events are single except the relays, and it's still hard even to get into state on the relays. I made it in my open event and a relay, the 4 by 1.
I went there last year, and it was one of the greatest experiences that I have ever had. Just the color of the track which is a baby blue, and the amount of people for, what some would say, such a boring event. I ran there one time before which was last year, and it was nerve racking. I wasn't even by myself in an open event either, it was a relay!

This year it is going to be way different. We only have 1 senior going, and he is in three of the events that made it. All of the events that made it are the 400 hurdles, open 100, 4 by 1, and the shuddle hurdle relay. I think it is still going to be fun this year, but the we only have 8 people going, and that's with the alternates. I hope that this is year is as fun or more fun than last year. I hope that maybe I could even place at state and be in the top 8 and go to the finals on saturday.
