On Wednesday, April 13, the Cambridge track and field team honored their seniors as they held a meet against four other teams. Both the girls and boys teams won the meet but the spotlight of thanks from that evening should go to the seniors and the parents that worked hard this year as members of the team and in various volunteer duties at all the home meets. We truly thank you.

 

However, our season is not done and the championship portion begins in our drive to get to the state meet in Carrollton next month.
