Description:	unning awayRoad meets affect teamThe girls track team has only two home meets this season, whichis far fewer than previous years. For some girls it affects their performance.Its harder running at a different school because you dont havemany people supporting you and youre under more pressure, junior Molly Hirt said.Other girls arent affected by away meets, and dont consider themto be different than home meets.Theres the same amount of pressure at away and home meets,junior Sophie Lofton said.The busses are often late to away meets, which causes limited timefor the girls to prepare.When the busses are late, it gets stressful because you dont get asmuch time to warm up and you feel rushed, freshman Kali Irelandsaid.by Jourdan CleaverJunior Callie Elup before theColumbus Nois a three yearmember.
