From the Coach – Head Coach Josey Weaver
"It was a successful day here at the Richard Martin Jr. Invitational. It was great to honor the past with Coach Martin being present. We had three school records broken here at home, which is always special, but even more exciting was getting to honor our seniors at their last home invitational here in Conway.
We will get ready to compete after spring break when we head to the Texas Relays. This was a really strong start for our team and we are looking forward to the rest of our season."
