• The TE Boys Track team hosted JFK for their first home meet of the season.  In a strong home opener, the TE Boys beat JFK 103-14.  The boys brought the heat, sweeping 7 of the events that day.  In the sprinting events, Josh Fine, Jaden Bridgeforth, and Trestan Calloway put in strong showings.  Josh Fine winning the 100 meter, Jaden the 200 meter, and Trestan the 55 meter hurdles.  Stewart Christophel lead the distance group, winning the 1600 and placing 2nd in the 800, while Blake Wool took 1st.  Beckham Mills did it all for TE, scoring 1st in the Discus, 400, and 4x400 relay with Blake, Evan West and Isaac Gerber.  Mathias Baidoo dominated the jumping events, scoring 1st in the High Jump and Long Jump.  Matt Habeeb, Bryce Hyman, Avaneesh Savkar, and Jerry Zhu helped to sweet the jumping events.  The throwing group was aided by Holden's 1st place in the Shot Put along with strong throws from Rolfy Terrero-Vidal, Andrew Glatt and Maxwell Stoddard. The TE boys came out of the season gates on fire and hope to continue that momentum against Sage Park next Thursday.

PKAN is a brain disorder that you are born with. It affects our ability to do everyday activities. PKAN gets worse as you grow up. Most people end up in a wheelchair and can’t talk. Most people with PKAN pass away before the age of 10.. Please bring a small donation like $1 or $2 to your homeroom teacher. We also ask that everyone wear red on May 6th to show their support!
