WIAA Sectional @ Mansfield Stadium

THANK YOU 

Parents, volunteer student athletes, volunteer adults, teacher workers, and everyone who helped put on a great meet. Thanks so much for your assistance Friday evening in hosting the WIAA D1 Sectional. Madison Memorial pulled off a great event because of the hard work and volunteering that you provided. The Madison Memorial athletes and coaches really appreciate you taking the time from your busy schedules to help make sure this event was a success. Not only did our athletes compete at a high level we provide a meet that allowed all athletes to have a great experience.

Friday night was the last step in making it to the WIAA State Championships in LaCrosse. The top 8 athletes from regionals were competing for 3 spots to qualify for the State meet. This time of year you are seeing the best competition and although not all our athletes qualified for state all our athletes rose up to the high level of competition and represented Madison Memorial Track & Field valiantly Friday evening. For some athletes their season came to a close but many of our underclassmen gained valuable experience for what it will take next season to qualify even more competitors to state. Madison Memorial scored 49 points in the girls competition to finish in 6th place (out of 18 teams) and the boys accumulated 57 points for a 4th place finish. The Spartans will be sending 5 athletes to state representing the team in 8 different events.

It is important time of year to communicate with your coaches about what meet will be your last meet and be prepared to end your season on a high note. Some athletes will be finishing next week at city, most athletes will be done after conference, and a select few hope to extend their season in to June with a trip to the WIAA state meet. Come ready to compete, cheer on your teammates at meets you are not competing in, and finish the season proud as a Madison Memorial Spartan.
