Bucs on top! Four years in a row, we have come home with a state championship; this year, the girls got the job done, and the guys were a close second place, just missing winning four in a row. @akarimei_runs @Coach_B_TF @KamoriReddick_

That’s what we call a sweep 🧹! First time in school history that we have swept the regional titles and the 4th straight regional title for the boys! @FHSAA @Coach_B_TF @akarimei_runs @CooperSukhu_ @GavinVenoff @MEtienne09 @Kadenfaniel2 @NathanDuranza75 @Reddick__Chance

Simple, not easy! Is the name of the game for a lot of our training. It doesn’t have to be complicated for you to get the training adaptations you’re looking for. #Training #simple @annamal_11
