“We lost a couple of key members of the team after last season,” acknowledged Coach Hone.  “The kids we have are exciting and have a lot of potential to do well.  We are returning a number of 2022 Section competitors and we have a couple of new recruits that have a lot of promise.  Our group may be small, but they are dedicated and get after it at practice.  Their hard work will pay off for us this year.  In addition to having several athletes aimed at Sections and possibly State, we have a lot of young hard working kids who should set Personal Bests this season and have themselves setup in strong positions to do well in the future.”

Jenny Miller will serve as Hone’s assistant.
