The 2012 Boys Track season is in the record books. Todd Frickey and Robert Deventer both competed today at the IHSAA State Track meet in Bloomington. Neither were able to break into the finals in their event. But, they both represented Garrett with pride and excellence. Todd and Robert had their work cut out for them if they were going to make the finals in the 200m or Discus. With the strong field of athletes, they just couldn't do it.
Todd has left the GHS track program as one of the fastest athletes to run track for the Railroaders. He holds numerous records in both Track and Football. It has been great for all of us to watch him compete. It is great to see this from a student-athlete that also works hard in the classroom. Good Luck next year at Hillsdale!
Robert Deventer is the poster child for work ethic. I wish you all could have seen him introduced at the State Finals. Robert is not gifted with height. He seemed a good foot shorter than the rest of the field of 27 athletes. But, he some of the best footwork for a thrower and he gets the most out of his speed and strength. He is such a hardworker and his goal for 4 years was to make it to the State Finals. He accomplished that and had a great time this weekend taking all of it in! This won't be Robert's last track meet. He is also going to compete at the next level. He will join Railroader teammate Geoff Getts at Indiana Wesleyan as a thrower. Good Luck Robert, we are proud of you.
