It was one of the most successful seasons ever for boys track. They won both the indoor and outdoor conference meets. They won the sectional and finished 7th in the state. Relays dominated for Minooka throughout the year, with the three sprint relays breaking school records and earning medals at the state finals. The team went most of the season without assistant coach Mark Smith, who was battling cancer. He would pass away the following fall.
