That 42.8 is legit! When my boy was a junior/senior they ran the 4x100 in the 43.3-44.5 range consistently. 4x200 best time was a 1:28.8 as a junior... ended up 8th in State out of 9. Covid ended a very promising 2020 track team. Got himself 2 times under 11 seconds before the Covid end, 10.81 at Alice and 10.72 at FB the following meet. Relays were killing it too. I love track season! lol I saw an 8th grade Flour Bluff kid run what supposedly was an 11.06 last night. That's phenomenal as an 8th grader!! Last year in 4a it took a time in the 41s to be in the top 5 at state. In 5a it took a time in the 40s to be top 5. Boerne Champion went 42.04 and was dead last in 9th with that time. Refugio won 2a 4x100 last year with a 41.93. I think the sprinter sotex is talking about for them is campbell who anchored that relay and won the 100 himself with a 10.32. Dude can scoot. Yeah, relatively speaking… That’s a legit South Texas time is what I meant. I know there are better times statewide. The 43.5 by Alice is pretty dang good, and they should compete well at Regionals considering it’s only week 2 of track season.

Campbell was the anchor for the Sprint relay yesterday, dude is FAST

I'm sorry but watching Atwood's brother (the track coach) brag about a 2nd place finish on Twitter is not a good look. Not if it was 2nd to a 2A program. I'm assuming Refugio was 1st at the Calhoun meet but someone correct me if I'm wrong.

I root for our boys win or lose. They’ll be just fine.

I'm not saying anything negative about the players. Try harder next time. I'm talking about a coach bragging about finishing 2nd to a 2A program. You think Calallen would be bragging about that? F no. And that's what separates Calallen from Alice. If you're fine with it good for you. It's just my opinion.

I'm sorry but a 4A program should have higher expectations than to brag about finishing 2nd to a 2A program.

I'm sorry but a 4A program should have higher expectations than to brag about finishing 2nd to a 2A program. You don’t know what expectations these boys and their coach have set forth. Joey Atwood had the opportunity to leave but chose to stay for these athletes. He knows what kind of potential they have and he knows they will compete. These boys compete all the time and do a good job of doing so. You yourself have said Refugio should be a 4A classification. Their program is stacked with several athletes with D1 offers most notable being Ernest Campbell for both track and football. You arent close to the program, you don’t live here and dont know squat about what goes on here. But your hate for the Atwoods shines through, and that’s okay. Not too long ago you even said I should interact more and set you all straight every now and then, well I’m telling it like it is. I watch the boys at practice when I can and damn, none of us could ever. But again you’re not there to SEE it for yourself or the effort and discipline the coaches and these athletes put in. It’s all good though. You’re entitled to your opinion.
