By Brenda Erdahl

The Maple Lake track and field team participated in two regular season meets last week and are now preparing for True Team and conferences.

On Tuesday, April 30, the Irish hosted a four-team meet and came out on top with a combined girls and boys score of 268 points.

On Thursday, May 2, the Irish travelled to St. John’s Prep. The boys team finished first out of five teams and the girls were third.

With five meets in the past 15 days, the Irish were running tired, Irish Head Coach Ben Youngs said.

The schedule will slow down to one meet per week now, but they will all be big meets with True Team Sections at the top of the list on Tuesday, May 7 at Howard Lake-Waverly-Winsted High School.
