Description:	historic seasonThe 2009 track and field season proved to bememorable for both the boys and girls teams.Bloomington South saw its track andfield team through a record-breakingseason that included winning Conference Indiana, sectionals, and regionals. The boys concluded a successfulseason by placing third in state. SeniorJoseph Holahan won the statecompetition in the 800-meter race,and said it was, definitely [his] seasonhigh. Holahan ran the 4x800 relay,4x400 relay, 400, and 1600, but wasbest known for his success in the 800-meter. Senior Earnie Morris brokeschool records in the 100 and 200 meter, and was recognized as the teamsMost Valuable Player for scoring themost points at meets.The school record for the 3200 meter was five seconds away from beingbeaten by sophomore Nicole Lucas.Lucas ran both the 1600 and the 3200,and was able to run the 3200 at state.Junior Emma Miller already heldthe school record in the 100 hurdles,and had experienced the thrill of making it to state the previous season. Although she didnt go to state this year,she still had an enjoyable season, saying that team dinners, making t-shirtsbefore big meets, and bonding with theseniors was a lot of fun.Team dinners and t-shirt making parties were among the many ways thatthe track team managed to stay close.Teams of this magnitude tend to stayseparated into their groups; I think ourteam did an awesome job of meshingtogether and supporting one another inpractice and during the meets, Holahan said, Its such an elating feeling toknow that all you have been workingfor has paid off. -ELIZA WILLIAMSFar Right: Senior Casey Peck attemptsthe long jump in the rival meetagainst Bloomington North.Top Right: Junior Lauren Bradleyfights to stay in front of herMartinsville opponent.Middle Right: Senior TimothyQuigley and sophomore David Volztalk before their events.Middle Left: Senior Earnie Morriskeeps his eye on the finish lineduring his race.Bottom Right: Junior EmmaMiller competes in the100-meter hurdles.Bottom Left: Freshmen KelliMcDevitt, Jennie Sutor, and Sarah Evans anticipate the start of their sprint.photos courtesy of scott breeden66 I SPORTS \| track & field
