2018 The Meadows Girls Track Capsule

THE MEADOWS

Head coach: Elbert Gray, first season

Returning lettermen: Two

Top athletes: Ellen Hirsberg (Sr.), Ashley Lee (Sr.)

Outlook: Hirsberg is one of the top runners in Class 2A, having easily won the 400-meter dash, the 800 and the 1,600 in last year’s state meet. She’ll have one last go at racking up a few more state titles.

Lee finished second in the 3,200 at the state meet and will aim for the top spot this year.

“We have a small team but should be very competitive in our individual events,” Gray said.
