Saturday the Calhoun High School Track and Field Team had its first meet of the season in the Don Williams Memorial at Roane County High School.
“Couldn’t have asked for a better season opener. Great weather and great performances,” Coach Kayla Ware said. “As a coach, I am excited to say that there is a lot of really great potential for this season!”
To start the season the Red Devils already have had one school record broken.
Kristian Frederick broke the school record in the discus throw with a throw of 119’9. Kristian broke the school record last year, ending last year’s season with a throw of 106’8 at the regional meet.
