There are throwers that go and lift weights everyday and throw 30+ times at practice and have to go on their own time on weekends to practice and go from nowhere on the radar to beating a favorite for the State at Sectionals and qualifying for State in their first year of doing the sport...

 

...but you can throw them all together with the other guys that lounge and get nothing done.

 

 

Take it easy man. We all know that some throwers to work very hard to be the best in their area, and we also all know that there are the lazy group of throwers. Nobody here is insulting your work ethic, or that of the good throwers who work to get where they want to be. However, I will say this: By and large, throwers (on a high school level) are the laziest on a track team. Again, there are many that are very good and lift and throw often and commit themselves to getting better, and are not lazy at all. But they aren't as much fun to poke fun at.

Yeah, I see what you mean... It's frustrating having that stereotype.

 

But anyways...

 

Who are the favorites in the field events? I know a there was a ton of people in state that graduated.

    • As I said somewhere earlier in the thread, the original plans had no outdoor athletic facilities being part of the campus.  The original plan was for HVA to use facilities at nearby schools.  Very late in the process they came up with a plan and found budget to have minimal facilities and crammed them in to space that never was intended for athletic facilities.  
    • Agreed, the way the field is turned you get the evening sun blasting right into the press box making filming a nightmare there, plus its so low.  The field is land locked and parking is a nightmare too. Seems like Knox County could have done a lot better there with the design and the quality. 
    • I think this upcoming team may be pretty good, they will definately be better up front and if they can replace Dozier, Heyward and Rembert, they can be real good. They have the same strange schedule, but this time with 5 straight home games. The road games at Jeff County, Powell will be tough to open up with and the back side at Bearden is the tough game there.  One question I had if anyone knows: There has been some talk of an indoor practice facility in the past, with the new track area now more of a track area, that kind of leaves a need for a football practice area. Just sayin....
    • I find it hard to believe that 70% of a schools enrollment is zoned for another school district
    • I was told that the indoor facility is happening regardless of the vote on the taxes but it would be a much bigger project with more funds if they vote goes through
