Blaze track holds intrasquad time trials


Clinton Blaze track time trials drew support from parents and the community who came out to watch the event.
The Clinton Blaze and Lady Blaze had some intrasquad time trials at a meet Thursday at Clinton High School.

Clinton City Schools Athletics Director E.T. Stamey said he couldn’t have been happier with the day.

Last week’s meet was held with the help of both the Clinton High School track teams and the Dragons football team,

Stamey noted that he was also pleased with the parental and community support.

“We had parents all over the place and we had help from the Clinton High School track team and the Clinton High football team,” he said.

“We had time trials because we timed the athletes in each of their events.”

The Blaze and Lady Blaze track teams will conclude their spring seasons on Thursday afternoon after school with a practice session.
