The girls track team turned in an historic performance this weekend at the New York State Indoor Track and Field Championships. Their performances on the track this season have been nothing short of extraordinary. Even more impressive than their athleticism has been their conduct. They have represented William Floyd High School and our community in a way that would make us all proud. Their sportsmanship and humility are to be commended. The girls will travel to the New Balance Nationals Championship Meet this upcoming weekend where they hope to add All-American honors to their truly impressive resume. Best of luck girls!!!!!
