I believe this might be the title that makes Shane Burrows career, i know he is now looking for #2, but to finally get that title after taking over the program, this is something special, things seemed to always alter or somehow go maybe not wrong but not the way we wanted it to, but now its perfect. This only adds to are tradition of excellence and prestige among the states track and field teams in ohio, next year it all begins again. IT feels so good to say state champs in track and i am not even in highschool anymore, thinking unrealistically in some aspects this could have been are 2nd or 3rd in the 2000 era, but hey this is just awsome. Big props to my homies in clyde, way to get a title and someone said i was psychic on that 3:21 time i aint braggin but i was dead on, they can go faster too! Next year its getting all 3 of the sprint relays down and some individuals, its clyde time next year. For all the fans out there football season is almost here, but if you just cant wait for track again we only got 8 months to go till indoor.03:35 PM
