@ Roane County High School Walton Tiger “Fight Back with Track”
Meet Tuesday March 22, 2022 Track
& Field Event
Hosted by: Walton Middle School
Coaches,
My name is Joe Rector and I am the Asst. Track Coach at Walton Middle
School. We would like to invite you to
the “Fight Back with Track” event on Tuesday, March 22. Our student athletes would like to help give
back to a cause. On May 2nd
of 2015 I finished coaching a CWVAC Conference Track meet and went to the
hospital for an elbow injury. Quickly it
was made apparent I was in a lot worse condition since I was diagnosed with
Leukemia and began my fight against Cancer.
Our student/athletes chose this date and event to help raise more
awareness and funds for Cancer Research.
Field events will begin
at 5:30. with running events following at 6pm.
This event will be held at Roane County High School and will utilize
their 8-lane track and Electronic Timing System.
If you are entering as a
single boys
team or a single girls team the fee is $60.00 or if you are entering a combined girls and boys team the
fee is $100.00. Checks can be
made payable to Walton Athletic Boosters or WAB. If you need an invoice sent to your school please contact me.
Athletes will still
follow the WVSSAC criteria of only participating in 4 total events with a
maximum of 3 running events. You may
enter an unlimited number of athletes per event with only three having the chance
to score. You may enter 2 relay teams
with only 1 having the chance to score.
Awards presented the day of the meet will be: Ribbons for all events 1st—6th
place; Team awards 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place
