Making yet another West A Olympian is this upcoming freshman Jonathan O. Newton “J.J.” With a time of 49.9 he finished third overall in the 14B age group in the 400 meter dash at the Junior Olympics and is looking to get even better as the track and field season inches closer. Congratulations to J.J. on this incredible achievement!
On August 16th, we had two West A cross country runners finish first overall in Men and Woman groups respectively. Brennan Patterson finished with a time of 17:39, and Grace Fritzman finished with a time of 19:10.
