On a chilly Saturday, April 25th, the Thunder athletes competed on the track and field in Ipswich, braving the cold as they put their skills to the test. It was a tough day for some and a great day for others, but everyone competed hard! The team came away with 26 place finishers and 9 personal records—an impressive showing despite the conditions. Go Thunder!

On Friday, April 24th, the North Central MS athletes had another cool and windy track meet, but they came to compete! The boys team came in 6th out of 13 teams and the girls team won the meet! Way to get out and compete! We had 32 place finishers and another 27 PRs on the day! Go Thunder!

Good afternoon. Due to a conflict with State FCCLA and a majority of the YTC Conference having FCCLA participants, the YTC Conference has elected to move the YTC Track Meet to Thursday, April 30th in Gettysburg starting at 12:30 PM. This meet was scheduled for Tuesday, April 28th in Gettysburg. Thank you!
